My thoughts: 1) Yes they have a problem that needs addressed. 2) By banning the import, sales, and aquaculture of lionfish, they're only...
That's an excellent point. In most cases where it takes an extended period or never happens at all, the clown was one of the first fish and the nem...
+1 Keep it trimmed... unless you want a single-species reef.
Very nice! ;)
Sorry to hear about your clam. :cry: Sounds like your chocolate chip star may have grazed on it. Won't be the first time I've heard of that...
+2 (3?) Harmless filter-feeding detritivore. Usually don't live long in our tanks.
Like any other mechanical filtration, what a skimmer removes is food for something in your tank (filter feeders, micro-organisms, and most corals...
Yes, it is. Here's their site, Matt. It appears restoration has been halted, unfortunately. Calypso restoration | About Us | Cousteau
Not exactly a record- I once had a perc that dove into a BTA less than ten minutes after it was introduced. Oh wait... she got stung and never went...
Pics or it didn't happen. :D
Yep, and Jacques Cousteau was a special person- may his legacy live forever. Always loved his documentaries on marine life and his efforts to...

Personally, I'd be concerned with compromising the structural integrity of the cabinet. I also doubt you'd gain much in the cooling department...

You're going to reduce efficiency quite a bit actually, as you'll be fighting heat's natural tendency to rise. You'd do better to place them a little...
A couple of these should work: 120VAC 4 Fan : Computer Fans | RadioShack.com Put one on each end near water level, both blowing in across the...
Your pics aren't coming through, but realistically, most anything will nibble on coralline for sustenance if it's not getting enough food.
Hate to say, but it sounds like the glass may be scored from excess scraping or scrubbing. Vinegar removes most anything, including coralline.
I would strongly suggest that you make some rearrangements or start another tank. :D Anything placed near an Euphyllia is in grave danger. The Monti...
Sorry for your troubles. I know the feeling-- my first reef attempt a few years back ended in a similar disaster. Once it reached that point, I tore...
