If they are hiding in the back of the overflow, they may be afraid of something in the tank, possible the foxface? I have seen some that are...
I have scratches in my glass as well. Not a whole lot you can do about that. Polishing glass is very involved and not an easy task by any means....
Get a BIG UPS power backup and run your low power (like Koralias) powerheads on that.
Regardless of *how* you want to paint the walls, I would highly suggest covering the top with plastic, then tape it down to seal it. I had paint...
Chemical warfare in a small tank is not something fun to watch. Corals recede and die yet everything *looks* fine. I can't even count how many...
Skinny kid lifting 20lbs trying to look like a tough guy; screamming "MAAAAA, MAMAAAAAA!!!" not the best way of conveying that image. :P Note to...
Those are good to have, they reduce the detritus in your tank. They also become natural food for your fish.
That's a blue maxima, it's the same one I have. They need a lot of lighting, but there is also "too much" which will lead to bleaching on the...
I agree with changing the bulbs. The ones my Current Nova came with lasted about 6 months before seeing a growth in GHA and cyano outbreak. I cut...
My replies are in GREEN. Wow that chewed up my lunch hour lol. Good luck with this and welcome aboard. :)
The water in So Cal has heavy concentrations of chlorimine and in some areas have fuel contamination. I know if I used tap from my municipal, I...
One of the seems is split and a vertical water spray is coming out of it. I find it odd that the cameraman is doing absolutely nothing about it and...
I second that. I get my 5 stages replaced for about $120, which includes 3 replacements of DI resin. My 100GPD membrane is $60, sediment and 3...
I trashed my Eheim, it created more nitrate problems in my system than my bioballs. The flow on it was so slow, it couldn't pick up any free...
Only on my Bubble King Skimmer. They are too pricey for my blood, $600-900 = OUCH!
I still strongly suggest you invest in an RO/DI system before you invest in anymore equipment on either the 46 or the 20. It's the best piece of...
Get a decent skimmer, that is the important part. I have a Bak-Pak on my 20H tank, I would recommend something better. Trash the light it came...
Cyano can infect and kill delicate corals. They smother the corals and deprive them of the light they need as well. It is a bacteria and can...
What type of lighting do you currently have? How big is the tank? How long has it been running? These long tentacle anemones are very hard to keep...
You are actually referring to a refugium, since you are talking cheato and DSB. Since you will have a combination sump/fuge, make sure you have...
