Sorry if this has been answered before. I did a search and could only come up with the answer for corals. It seems like it would be a fairly common...
This isn't something I've done, but when I was at a local pet store that sells marine fish, there was a woman talking to an employee about setting up...
So, I've decided to add another circulation pump to my 60 gallon tank (Measures 48" long 13" wide 24" tall). As far as surface agitation goes, I have...
Not when I just bought this one! I may buy a different fixture in the future, but I chose something that would be good for getting my feet wet with...
Hi, I'll try to make this short, for me. I have a T5HO fixture with 3 48" 54 watt bulbs. 2 are 10K bulbs, and 1 is a 460nm Actinic bulb. Basically,...
I've got a couple of updated pictures. Finally the diatoms have (mostly) subsided, though there are a few stubborn rocks that have refused to lose...
Also, putting the bio-wheel back on may not be a bad idea. I know they have a reputation as "nitrate factories", but they are nitrate factories...
I've heard, like the other three, that the best seawater can be harvested by going a little ways out to sea, even if just to swim 10-20 feet from...
Well, I haven't heard any of those clicking sounds that I hear mantis shrimp make, but I could very definitely suspect a crab. The only violence I...
jdameli1, no, they have been situated fine underneath rocks and haven't really moved at all. They've seemed happy up until this point. I think...
Well, one of them not only dropped arms, but appeared completely mangled. Is it possible that one of them dropped arms, then got mangled afterwards...
Thanks to all of you! And I'm glad you all liked the picture. I just had to add the "fish on a mission." Always gotta sneak a laugh in there when I...
Okay, sorry if I referred to you as people. If you read what I said you would see that I wasn't suggesting he let the old river rock cure. Obviously...
Information on the tank and water quality: FOWLR, 60 gallons, 48x13x24. About 80 pounds of live rock. 50 pounds fiji, the rest originally dry base...
People seem to be missing the point. Mkizla has rocks already in there and wants them out of the tank because they make the tank look like a...
Oh, I wasn't actually looking for a noticeable difference, that's what the snails are for. Just thought it would be nice to have something for the...
Ok. I was reading a few articles saying that pods ate tiny particles of algae and food waste that were trapped in sand that the normal cleanup crew...
So, I was reading about rotifers and copepods, both as live food for fish and as a component of live sand and as a part of the cleanup crew of the...
I've been using the RODI machine outside of my grocery store for water changes already. The problem is that I have a bad back and hauling large...
Thanks a ton for the advice. I'll definitely be buying a filter then as soon as my paycheck clears! I agree about not being sure how old the filters...
