Looks to me like its still trying to acclimatize itself. Almost every coral / anemone I've put in my tank has put out that stringy stuff (mucas) the...
Wow, That really is some setup. I was wondering if I could just use T5's and it sure looks like it.
Thanks for all the good info and links Reef Guru.
Tatoo, neat!! Where do we get it??
Well they must have been in your old tank so I don't think they will hurt your fish. Would be best to get rid of them but apart from curing your...
Hi, 10gal per inch is a good rule. So let's say you have 3in right now. 2 clowns and angelfish would be 4in more that's 7in or 70gals. I think that...
Great......welcome!!
Hello......what type of setup do you have?
In Additon to a skimmer I run an Ozonizer. My water is so clear people have actually asked me if there is water in my tank. No the fish fly!!...
Wow, what I've read and be told by LFS is that DKH should be max 12 and calc should be 450 max 500. I'll make your recommended suggestions and see...
Good Luck. Cut way back on the feeding for awhile also. Maybe every second day or 3.
When did you at the fish? If only this week I won't be too concerned!! This is going to happen because you don't have enough nitrifying bacteria yet...

Hi, If you need a laugh follow this thread on cycling. I think the newbie threw his tank in the garbage after reading this: Saltwater Aquariums
OK...I'll keep working on it. The PH in my reactor is 6.5 presently. Any higher than 6.6 and it seems to stop disolving the media.
I do mine whenever I feel like it. I stop the main pump. This causes about 4in of water from the main tank to go into the sump. I take that same...
Thanks reef guru. Got it. Only thing is my DKH is high (15) and my Calcium is low (400) so I need to get the calc up and the dkh down.
My LFS had a drill and loaned it to me. They usually charge $30-$50 per hole. With the right drill it's real easy. But that's the cheap part. The...
May start to cycle again or take a little longer. Depends how good the live sand is and if it's out of the bag or from another tank.
