    Cleaning Sand and Rock

    I use a pressure washer to clean dry LR with before I use it. As for the sand, if it's good aragonite, you can wash it repeatedly with a hose (do it...

    JBJ 28 Intermediate

    It's really mostly about temp...SH are very prone to bacterial infections (usually Vibrio), and in a captive system the bacterial growth skyrockets...

    Mexican Turbo vs Red Leg Crab

    I've never had scarlets bother anything, with the exception of grabbing a resting SH's tail while trying to climb over it.

    Good bacteria

    When you say "sponge filter", do you mean the air-driven ones or do you mean a sponge insert that say a HOB or canister filter might have? If it's...

    Micro bubbles

    OK, so no bubble trap between the one side and the pump bay...a filter sock would definitely help there. Do your drains empty above of below the...

    50 gallon acrylic sea clear drilling & overflow

    FWIW, the tank had no holes or anything in it when we bought it...we polished it (it was scratched), designed the system, and went at it. FWIW, you...

    Two overflows in the middle of my tank

    The pane in your tank could let go too...anything is "possible", but one needs to consider "probable". I've never, ever had a BH fail on any of the...

    First attempt at Aquascape

    Travertine is a form of limestone, so if they aren't made from an amalgum, you should be OK.

    JBJ 28 Intermediate

    We have a couple of them, and I can't say I'm too impressed, to be honest, but they work fine as QT/growout tanks. They run too warm for tropical...

    Rare earth magnets

    No, more like casting/coating resin...we've coated magnets in resin in the past for keeping SH feeding stations in place. Do be mindful that your PH...

    Mexican Turbo vs Red Leg Crab

    This is normal for most species of hermits...they get a taste for snail meat, and that's it. By red-legged hermits, I'm assuming you mean...
