I just received a CUC from John too: 60 Dwarf Ceriths 22 Nassarius 30 Florida Ceriths 22 Nerites Put the snails in yesterday and today Ive noticed...
^ nope... haven't covered this. From the reading I have done - the mangroves should grow without any supplements (although may do better with some...
Received my CUC from John Maloney at reefcleaners.org today. I purchased a crew rated for 60 gallons to start. I didn't try to count them but I was...
^ Thats what Im leaning towards after searching.. This photo looks VERY similar to what I have. So, next question... good or bad? Pseudocorynactis...

Day 16 Got home today after being gone for 6 days. I lost about 5 gallons of water to evaporation which is about what I expected. Everything...
Im just hoping they develop an apatite for aptasia.... Then if they cause a problem I will trap them and put them into my fuge.

Day 4 More of the same... The only thing that changed is my temp went up to 78.5... from 78 and thats probably because I had the lights on an hour...
I have star polyps & mushrooms in the display tank, macro algae in the sump... Shouldn't I run lights some for those?
So the theory is that because I put in 150+/- pounds of well cured live rock and there was little or no die off so my tank has basically cycled...
When I talked to the skimmer manufacturer they said to use the paddle wheel - just to cut off the paddles, drill holes and tie on with fishing line....
You have a 46 that never cycled? So what did you do? Did you just keep testing for a while and eventually just start stocking the tank? What did...
Day 3 I noticed this morning that my skimmer was acting more normal and tonight it seems to be performing as expected. It is actually pulling out...
