10 Month Update: Well, I figured it's about time for some new pictures. I never really started a build thread, and I seem to be doing this at...
Do you have a starfish in the tank? He may have tried to grab the sixline in the night.
It does, but possible not as quickly as the clam may consume it. No offense, but I would be very hard pressed to assume water from a LFS was up the...
Not true. True if you are only considering panorama's for LEDs. I keep a Maxima 24" deep under CREE LEDs. I'd never go back to MHs.
The tank is too small for any wrasse with the exception of a single flasher wrasse. I personally would not keep an angel of any sort in one...
No worries, just wanted to make sure no miss-information was spread. Yes, a clown goby should be fine. However, you should know that SPS corals are...
What sort of LEDs? How often/how much do you do a WC? What salt? What are your current parameters? (specifically, Ca and Alk) Yes, it is do-able,...
No way. Not anywhere near a big enough tank, nor should this guy be added to reef tank without knowing some precautions.
A 28g tank is quite limiting. Most here will agree it is not suitable for a hippo tang, regardless of size. Some of the smaller gobies can be...
My preferred resource for tank hardware/equipment. :) Welcome MD!
Glad to hear. Thanks KC.
Cyanobacteria. Blue leg hermits will pick at it, but your best bet is to address its source (ie - a nutrient problem).
Essential reef parameters: Temp pH Salinity Nitrate Phosphate Alkalinity Calcium Magnesium
^ The lux of LEDs can greatly exceed that of LEDs already. My CREE LEDs are completely capable of bleaching most everything in my tank if I ran them...
Jumped as in "jumped in front of you and you put him back in" or as in "jumped and found later"?
Phosphate levels? Any phosphate removal media?
Congrats! ;D How have your inverts fared?
IMO, It's an awful lot; a 150W or 175W would be better suited. If you're willing to mount it away from the surface, you might be able to pull it off.
No offense to you, but we hear "perfect" all too often around here. We can help you much better if we get a full list, ie: Temp pH Salinity Nitrate...
It's sticking it's "face" (mouth) in the substrate because it's trying to die... If it dies and you don't take it out, your tank will die too.
