They grow to almost 4 feet. Sharks typically need round tanks to swim to avoid banging around the corners. I hope you have fine sand and not crushed...
Perfect example- grouper. They come out of the hole, grab food, go back in their hole. That same process occurs when they grab your bait. Your job is...
I don't think they have the mental ability to reason and like that. I don't think they realize the are pulling against a line. perhaps they can learn...
They must. Haven't clowns developed a thick coat to tolerate the nematocysts within anemone tissue, while other fish can't/haven't?
The one on the left looks like a nudibranch. The one on the right looks like a stomatella snail. Left, likely bad, right very good.
How small is small?
Agreed. It's crazy to me that it hasn't really dropped much after doing almost a 50% water change in a weeks time. It's also crazy that nothing has...
Latest round of tests: Salinity: 1.026 Nitrates: 0 pH: 8.05 Alk: 4.65 Calc: 400 Mag: 1340 If I bring down Alk. another 1-1.5 meq/L I should be in...
Thread is from 2007, fwiw.
I had one of these units for 10 months. I enjoyed the ability to dim, but LED wasn't for me; not right now. I just traded my unit in for a 250 watt...
I agree. I am acclimating my tank to metal halides and what I did was add 3 sheets screening to reduce intensity. I will pull one each week....
You will want a drilled tank in the long run, believe me.
Also, I started dosing alk. for a week because me alk read low for two straight weeks (Red Sea kit). I averaged out how much it was dropping per day...
Of course. I wouldn't buy live rock if it were me either. However, if he/she has plans on a heavy bioload, he/she will need every available pore that...
Well, the rock plays a significant factor in bio-filtration, so it's not just for looks. Having said that, go with dry rock, not live.
What is your mag specifically? A high mag can lead to inaccurate readings of alk. and cal. or a low mag can lead to an inability for alk. to stay in...
Remove the cardinals and chromis and you have a good group, imo. The bio load will be absurd with those 9 fish.
I believe Logan's supplier overseas supplies other companies too. However, I think Logan does a few minor changes in shop and stamps the warranty on...
If that's true, I don't think you would want to use that salt anyways. Who wants chemistry changes in their tank?
I would go 4, maybe 5 fish max. I don't think a HOB filter would be enough for 10 fish (or the tank size). 50 lbs of rock will take a lot of...
