Dragons Breath is the correct common name, Halymenia is the easier way to ID it ( its genus I believe). Very cool looking, interesting shape and...
Here is the NYTimes article.
Welcome to the world of saltwater, a 125 is going to be a great start. Are you looking to do a mixed reef or are you starting with live rock and fish?
I got this article from the NYTimes in my RSS feeds this morning. They said there is no marine life that is closely affected by the volcano. I'm sure...
AquaC Remora pro would work I believe. I have the in sump Urchin Pro version and like it, but I cant speak for the HoB version.
The guys at Atlantis Marine World have a 5,000 gallon container truck that they fill with water at an inlet, they dont go out to sea. They then fill...
The solana is nice, but there is no upgrading it. If you were to get a tank/stand/sump, you have the option to upgrade in size and components as you...
I collect sea water, but my tank is almost exclusively local species (except a pacific blue tang that outgrew my brother tank). My theory is that the...
Could it be the begining of Caulerpa Prolifera maybe? It's tough without a picture, I can't really even say that Caulerpa prolifera is a good guess...
If your water is good then you can go ahead and get whatever you want in there as far as fish/corals goes. But dont add too much. Stick with a few...
Get the reef octopus, you wont be dissapointed. But as already mentioned it is very tall. I would suggest the AquaC Urchin Pro, but they are tall...
The bubbles are good, that is a sign of your tank maturing. The bubbles is the bacteria in the sandbed "finishing" the nitrogen cycle.
Mandarines and the scallops are both difficult to care for. You really should have a very mature tank to keep mandarines alive for any significant...
I'v heard its about $50 a month for a MH and chiller. What you can do is just upgrade to more T-5's, I believe it says you just have 2 right now. I...
Mine eats like crazy too. I have a hard time keeping any inverts because he will eat them. I do have some snails but every once in a while I need to...
Here is my Northern Puffer. I keep a temperate tank so temp is around 70 degrees. I am thinking I will re-release him back into the place that I got...
That is very puffed. I have a northern puffer and he dosnt get even close to that in comparison. He is big and puffs up to the size of a softball,...
The lights are on for a very long time. I understand they are on durring store hours, but that will cause part of your problem with aglae growth....
Yeah, it wouldnt last long in a tank with Tangs. Macros add something different/nice to reef tanks that you normally dont see much of.
It's a macro (red obviously) could be a Botryocladia sp. (red grape kelp, or similar species). Not sure on the exact species, but I would say im 85%...
