Funny, I was reading on an "expert" site a while back, and they claimed that wattage means nothing unless your tank is greater than 3 meters deep. I...
Are they as close together as they appear in the FTS? IIRC, both have relatively long sweeper tentacles that they extend at night to protect their...
Agree with the others- slowly raising the current tank's SG back to normal would be much easier on the livestock than any drip-acclimation.
Long time no see, Bro. Welcome back! :)
+1 OTOH, you could always change the ballast. I agree, 250w is a lot for that tank. You may have issues with acclimating anything.
Dayum! Very impressive toadstool, Vinny. Looks like you might need a bigger tank before long. Certainly gives me cause for concern... :o Actually,...
Totally agreed. FTR, I have never dipped, drip-acclimated, or QTed anything in my life, and I have never had a fish with ich or any other problems....
Beautiful fish, Vinny. I love it! :)
Here's a bump for your question. :) Meanwhile, you might want to do a little research. It might be possible that the clam has a resistance to...
In a word, yes. You could run just the T5s with good bulbs (like ATI), and that alone would be plenty of light for anything you want to keep in your...
Any new updates? How about a pic or two of the Betta? :D
Pics, or it didn't happen. <jk> :D Congratulations! (still wanna see pics, though. :))
Yep, perfectly normal. Fish love live food; if something live fits in their mouth, it's food.
+1... totally agreed. While some can give decent advice in one area or another, they all have something to sell; from inappropriate livestock to...
Congratulations on the new tank! Agreed, that's what I would do.
I don't know anything about that pump, but the RIO 1700 is rated at 642gph.
+1 As far as fish "hating" variety, that's nonsense; they came from a sea of variety. If by chance you feed something they don't like, they'll...
Actually no, it's ridding it's body of O2. The Zooxanthellae algae produces O2 for it's host coral as well as food. If the temp or lighting is...
Also, what and how much do you feed it? FWIW, Euphyllia species should not be kept in high flow, as the sharp edges of the skeleton can damage the...
AFAIK, most corals have the capacity to either sting or release toxins. For those that sting, I would consider it safe to assume that even if the...
