Just a heads up on the panther grouper,those cute little babies that many LFS's sell will grow a few inches in just months and begin eating any...
If the remaining fish show no signs of disease I think I would go with a 50% water change and also run alot of carbon.If you don't have a reactor or...
This is simple and would work as a biofilter but having a seperate compartment with cheato or other macro algae would be more beneficial,removing...
What fish do you have left and what option do you have for housing them?
What make and model filter? Perhaps it can be fixed,if it's the impeller making noise it may not be installed correctly.Where is it leaking? It could...
BTW,mysis is a much better food source,brine doesn't have much nutrional value unless treated with vitamin and fat supplements.I use Hikari brand...
What do you mean by messing around ? Do you have much rock in your tank or is the filter your main biological filter ?
Clownfish are pretty hardy and a ammonia level of .25 is not very high.I would just wait it out,don't feed anything for a couple days and let the...
This should help your bacteria populate the tank,but the best thing you can do is to be patient.Good things happen slowly,problems happen quickly and...
I do agree you could use more light,if your hex is kind or tall as most are you might have to try that frogspawn up higher in the tank.They do adapt...

It's good that you came here for advise before going any further.Most will advise using a sump setup if you can,but if you are dead set against it...
I paid about the same for two evo1050's from Marinedepot.Work great on a timer,I can barely hear them start up.
Coralamorph?
Yep,that's how they spread from rock to rock,the stem will attach where it's touching then grow thin and finally seperate,starting a new colony.Don't...
I bought mine from MarineDepot,they're actually a little cheaper and a 3reef sponsor.Although I couldn't find a code for any discount.
Don't forget to consider lighting issues.When upgrading to the larger tank lighting it can be a major exspence.
The size of the spike can vary depending on how fast your bacteria are multiplying and their ability to keep up with the ammonia being produced.Once...
