Mushrooms are nasty when they touch something. So much slime and those mesenterial filaments can do some damage. I've had a mushroom win against a...
Well, I ordered the pair off of Diver's Den last night. This is a species that's always been on my dream list, but doesn't make it into the states...
Collective experience. Ask anyone who's been in the hobby for years. ;)
Hydrometers are notoriously inaccurate. They're susceptible to air bubbles, temperature effects, and poor calibration.
So someone reminded me I never got around to posting pics/details about my new ride here, so here y'all go: 2012 E92 M3 LeMans Blue Metallic Black...
1.025-1.026. NSW averages around 35ppt (1.0265), which is what I really try to achieve. However, I'd rather be a little short than a little over. :)
There's a whole lot more to it. It's not something I've ever attempted, but there are a couple breeders local here who've talked about what it takes...
This is psammacora. You can find it in purple as well. If this is what your purple guy looks like, that's what you've got. :)
I just went through this myself, to a lessor degree. I've always calibrated my refracto at 0. I recently got some 35ppt solution as well, checked...
Hi there, No, I don't think your pushing things too badly there, but I would cut off the list at that point. Your picks and combination looks...
There's a reason Boost can't make them fast enough... I'd stick with the Typhoon.
Bubble Magus is one of the better affordable dosers out there; I don't think I'd rely on something too cheap.
All sounds relatively normal to me; tankmates are suitable. Give things a couple days to settle down; it'll take a week or so before everyone...
Any chance what appeared as hermits were just hermit molts?
Which is the correct common name for these. Real mushrooms are a fungus; fungia=mushroom. Also consider how the appearance of a fungia coral...
Yeah, it'll need to grow out before a positive ID can be made, but if I had to guess right now, I'd say A. horrida.
There's no UV's on my tank, FYI. Not saying I wouldn't include them however, and it's something I've considered adding myself.
Skip the sixline; if you want a wrasse consider something along the lines of the following: Canary Wrasse, Radiant Wrasse, Melanurus Wrasse, etc....
That'd be a tough question for myself these days, if I was in the market again. I'd be so tempted to put 2 Radions on my tank and call it a day......
Not the same thing; LPS detaching is polyp bailout and due to poor conditions (parameter issue). I'm willing to bet Andy has a handle on his...
