Just wondering if anyone had any suggestions on how to lower our nitrate reading ... or do we just have to wait it out a bit longer. The tank has...
Hey fellas, Wish I knew someone there. I went to Waterlemon Cay when we vacationed for a few days in St. John two years ago. That was some of the...
W.T.F.? :-/
My LFS recommends phytoplankton during the day and zooplankton at night. This is supposed to replicate what happens in nature (phytoplankton more...
I've only seen comb jellies in species tanks in special exhibits. Usually, there's just special lighting to show their bioluminescence. No LR or even...
When we got our aquacultured live rock, there were lots of sponges on it. So far, much of it has survived, especially the encrusting kinds. The more...
Hey guys, I just got one last week. We were looking for a quarantine tank for our main reef that we could then change to a fragging tank once we had...
Also, with any disturbance to the bed, the larger particles will rise to the top. I recently read a recommendation that 10% of the DSB sould/could be...
Check the Venturi valve to be sure that it's closed tightly. Some models give you a cap so that you can remove the venturi all together and cap off...
Just my 2 cents, but I think more inverts would be cool (hermits, cukes, urchin, anenome, etc.), especially for those of us low in the posts!
Hey Jakets, Yeah I agree. It helps a lot, not just when there are problems, but also to new-comers reading our past posts. I remember not too long...
Sorry I'm just catching this post now. You can change the height of the whole construct, the size and/or number of water holes, the size and/or...
Our powersweep gave out. We have it on a wavetimer, and everytime it starts, it makes a loud series of clicks and wiggles around in the tank. The...
I did an internet search for crabs based on what this one looks like - hairy. There are indeed hairy or bristle crabs. This one seems to be in the...
Thanks. I've put some more photos of the crab in the member gallery.
Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone can ID this crab. It's a hitchhiker on my Florida LR. It's about 2-3 inches across its carapace.
We're running a single powersweep that pumps water perpendicular to our other two power heads. It's been running for about three weeks; its still...
Hey soulfish, I've got paired MaxiFlow 1200s (one on each side). No complaints so far. They point in toward the middle of the tank from each side. In...
Yeah, this stuff is dense. That's half the rock the final tank will have. Tampa Bay Saltwater ships half of the rock (in my case, 75lbs.) first with...
I guess that's the trade off for not drilling the tank or getting built in overflows.
