I am with you on the regal tang. I believe that is my favorite fish also. My regal tang likes to hide in between rocks and place his eye where he...
Dump the salt creep. Use a refractometer and correct salinity as needed by adding fresh salt. Your salt creep is not normally that large to make...
It might try to cycle. At a minimum you will probably get an alk spike. Last time I did this I moved most of the CC to one side and removed with a...
Look in your sump. I have found mine in there several times. I have also went months without seeing any peppermint shrimp in my larger tank then...
Most local fish stores will test your water for you so you might try that. Mag is not to dangerous to raise so I would suggest making a small...
Very interesting. Please post pics.
Adding RO water for evaporation will not change your parameters. Use an automatic top off system if you can, because your water level will always...
I have always had a really dry house in the winter until I made my tanks grow to 300 gallons. Now my basement is humid. I have a gas forced air...

Try puttting several long leaves of lettuce in there and see what happens. Once they realize that is food I bet he will leave everything else alone....
I like a bi color angel but they will nip hard corals if you have any. I think my next favorite for a tank your size is a pygmy angel or possible a...
BTAs and Condys are not natural homes to percula clowns typically. (You did not state what kind you have.) They will use them sometimes and other...
Sounds like your off to a great start. If you have not bought your overflow and mag pump I would suggest going up to the mag 12 and a larger...
How long are you going to be gone if it is only a few days. I would tell them to not feed the tank. If you are going to be gone 5 days or more I...
I have found that snails and crabs once they make it through a 2 or 3 week period will live a long time. But many of them do not make it that long....
