Thanks.
I like my Nova extreme (4 x 24" bulbs, 96w total). My first one had an electrical problem after 2 years. I've had my current fixture for a little...
It sounds like he's adjusting to the tank. The problem may be as subtle as water flow that he doesn't like, or a more basic problem such as salinity...
Sebaes are still tough to keep. With all the light you have, watch out for high temps in the summer.
I agree with irr0001. In my experience, the Coral Banded Shrimps tend to be agressive in smaller tanks when someone intrudes on their turf.
I'm a project and financial manager for the Department of Defense.
Wow. Yay for the Peppermint shrimp. I was going to suggest injecting the aipastia, with a hypodermic needle, using lemon juice. It worked for me.
Even the really, really big ones will only eat dead things. My monster bristleworm will be all over a 1/2 silverside in less than a minute, but...
Leon, Hi, and welcome to 3Reef. I don't have any experience with that particular pump, but I would be surprised if you got the same water flow...
I'm not sure what your question is. If you want to increase the water circulation cheaply, add an air stone or two.
Wow. No idea. I didn't know nassarius snails ever went after living things, only dead stuff and leftover food. They're very good scavengers. Maybe...
Have you checked "That Fish Place"? They have a large, ever-changing variety of fish. They're in Pennsylvania.
Postscript on the lemon juice: It seems to have worked great! I used a hypodermic to inject about 6 aipastia, and they shriveled up and died. No...
I bought two shrimp to go after a half-dozen aipastia that had shown up on a rock. They disappeared after half a day and I haven't seen either of...
The anemone will look flacid and lifeless, it's tentacles will not be sticky, and it will look that way for more than 12 hours. Sometimes when an...
Also, they are a good indicator of a healthy tank! So, good job!
I have a huge one, and he hasn't caused any trouble in the 2 years he's been in the tank.
Ohh! Ohh! I know this answer! Remember that the "DI" means "De-ion". The DI filter attracts and holds the ions from disolved salts and silicates....
I agree with pgoodsell. The strips seem to read high for nitrates.
I have no experience with them, but I wonder to myself "Why bother?" Except for some very specialized drafting and graphics programs, I think most...
