True, there will always be the curveballs but we just do our best to figure it out without going insane. I can def imagine making my RO/DI water at...
I definitely am wondering how to re-structure my "tank time". I have a daughter (1st child) on the way in Sept/Oct & the tank will rightfully take a...
yeah I agree I like fish that are in the water column, but it would be kinda cool to have it come out with the inverts that are nocturnal. Hopefully...
Yeah I've read they are difficult to keep, they are super interesting looking though. They kinda remind me of the deep water anglers with the draw...
I was wondering if anyone has or has had a Popeye Catalufa Soldierfish & their opinions/experiences with it? Thanks!
haha yup I know that feeling like "Joe, why didn't you just leave it alone and go to bed, why did you have to touch it!"
Thanks everyone now I know I'm crazy :) I always end up wanting to make little minor adjustments & cause like a giant rockslide, I have to laugh...

I do 10 hrs total, 45min lead in for dawn & 30 min for dusk.
Clowns are best kept in sole pairs unless you have an uber big tank. They may start fine when juvs but as they grow the males will most likely fight...
You should be fine. IMO the mech/chem filtration is less important than the bio filtration. You can support a SW tank completely on a nice amount...
Odyssea is in a whole nother league Rida, insurance companies love it, keeps their fire coverage in demand :)
I just received my Aquactinics TX5 a few days. I actually have been in contact with the manufacturer and they have many readily available parts for...
yeah my blenny's face is frozen forever in the "who me" look :)
Like Kevin mentioned, you can usually find free xenia from local reefers as it overruns tanks and lots find it annoying. Look at some local reef...
xenia is one of those corals that can grow like weeds in some tanks & in others it will dissolve for no good reason. I have had xenia in my tank and...
