I run carbon in a canister filter attached to my sump. You can just put it in the chamber and make sure there is flow through it. I have sat it on...
I got a 125 FW catfish tank and once in a while I'll get a $1 portion of bloodworms for em. Probably 500 5" worms for $1! Just for the heck of it I...
It might be blurry because of detritus/microbubbles floating around....Might be blurry because you have a fish that kicks of sand every 10 minutes...
I found some old random pics I took a while back. Result of placing the frogspawn too close to my peppermints spot. [IMG] Some palys fighting over...
I knew I was going to have to answer that question. I know its a little overstocked but some will be moving to my 20Xhigh once it cycles and proves...
I had one peppermint that ate aiptasia out of the 6 I have owned total. And sad to say, my pistol shrimp killed the tasia fighter!
This is something I always wondered too. I don't want to siphon out pods from my sump, I don't want to have to unplug my powerheads to be able to...
When you look through the side of your tank length wise, it should be clear. If it is not clear you need to change your carbon. Mine will turn a...
Sumps can be very confusing at first. I was in your boat about 6 months ago. I referred to Limpits sump video on Youtube which gave me much...
I would recommend gluing the eggcrate to the magnet top instead of using a zip tie. You can regular super glue gel. Just glob the glue on the top...
Site is awesome. I have learned so much from these boards! I've been in the FW hobby for a couple years and decided it was time to get into...
Why are you removing them? No reason to. I have some lengthy beasts in my tank and I have never had a problem.
1.025-1.026 for corals. People recommend 1.022 for fish because they don't need the extra salt. Why wasted salt if they don't use it. 1.025-1.026...
I'll let Dr Frag speak on that....that is definitely his field.
If you want SPS your going to want to increase the flow. 40-50 times the turnover seems to be about what everyone else is doing. So for a 47g, your...
Make sure your water source is decent, don't overfeed, keep nitrates low.
That would be a combo to give some nice PAR and a REALLY blue look. Make sure you get name brand bulbs, it makes a difference. I'm running: -UVL...
I'm one for natural filtration that is found in the ocean. The bioballs don't really do much except allow nitrates to build up on them, no different...
I believe that reef tanks should be about 40x-50x turnover. If you have a 20 gallon, I would suggest at least 800gph.
