beat me to it RNO it took me 15 mins to write that cus i was watching the colbert report haha
Your light is definitely not strong enough, and these guys really hate fluctuations in sg. And in a tank that small (i would know I have a 10 g) you...
the only way to tell if your tank is cycled is by using test kits. Have you been testing your ammonia and nitrates at all? And if its not done...
Do you mean mantis shrimp by any chance? Im just asking because you say your gonna feed it live shrimp and I would think that watching a mantis would...
I'd be kinda worried, I put in a firefish with a damsel and the firefish was considerably larger yet the damsel attacked it so I had to move it to...
Yea I would have to agree, the are finicky eaters. I had one and it just would not eat. I tried flakes, pellets, mysis shrimp, and blood worms. So if...
i have that same tank...you could just get the LED upgrade kit for the lid. Or they make a metal halide version as well. The halide runs about 200...

can you buy frags at these type of events? i never really go because my corals are to small to frag :(
i've never dealt with sps personally but i hear montipora digitata is one of the easiest.
Im gonna go out on a limb and say it kinda looks like the jbj series maybe 24g? And if it is, unless you got the HQI upgrade which most people don't...
