Dean, before purchasing any nem test your water parameters: - salinity - have to be tested preferably with a refractometer and have to be constant as...
Welcome Sami, great decision. My first sw tank was a Juwel Rio 180 (you may find them in UK on bargain prices I think too) - it is a FW tank and I...
Try out bubble tips nems - are easiest to care for and no so aggressive as others. Still, if you have algae issues, your water may be out of specs...
