Update ! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT ! Thanks for all your advice everyone ! After quitting the dosing, doing a water change every other day for a week,...
Thanks for your comments. I will do everything I can to get it back to rights. I'm afraid getting a larger tank, however, is out of the question. (...
I am so disappointed. I use to have a beautiful salt water aquarium. The water was so crystal clear that you wondered if there was water in it @ all....
I do a water change & test my calcium & salinity once a week. I also clean the media in the discarded water @ every water change. How long will the...
Will cooler temperatures ( around 82F ) reduce aggression among discus ? I read this.
I did not try a tank divider, but I did put the larger, more dominant, discus in a separate tank for 2 weeks. This was also offered as a solution to...
The thick growth has stopped the behaviour "somewhat" but there is still some chasing & nipping. Will the dominant discus eventually "give up the...

I was using 2 different products, but not @ the same time. ( Liquid Reef & Kent's Coral Accel ) A member tipped me off to the fact that I really did...
No, the lights are not on a timer. I don't have a lot of corals. I just about lost all of them by overdosing. Frequent water changes ( every other...
I have been leaving the bright lights in my SW tank on for the recommended 8 hrs./day. The corals close up @ least 1 hour before this. Is this just a...
WOW ! Thanks for all the info ! Personally, I've had bad experiences with dosing. Perhaps it was my fault. Perhaps I was dosing too much. That is...
Prime is good for taking the chlorine out of the water. If you are using RO water, you would not need it. What are you using for filter cartridges ?...
I have a 10 gallon reef tank. How many times a week should I do a water change ?
How long do you leave the bright lights on ? I leave mine on for 8 hours.
