Almost anything is possible as a hitchhiker so who knows. Sounds fun. Is it maybe a mysis shrimp or a ghost shrimp? Those would be common hitchhikers.
I've heard some corals can be sensitive to glue but haven't ever had it happen to me. Is it still alive? Are the polyps still coming out?
If he's already got a yellow tang in there it could be beating up on the new arrivals. Lots of stories of established yellows getting territorial. I...
I personally wouldn't taste it, who knows what's in there. Get a refractometer and take 6 seconds longer to test it. ;D
I trust the syringes more than those lines. The best one I've found is the one that comes with Elos test kits, great syringe.
To take another perspective, I know coralline sounds awesome but honestly if your tank parameters are good you may quickly come to regret ever having...
What's your magnesium at? If your magnesium is low if you try dosing alkalinity it will likely mostly precipitate out without raising your levels. I...
I don't know for sure, I just got my first dendro yesterday. AFAIK dendros are more likely to keep open during the day, tubastrea (hard to...
Sounds to me like the original frag just was not attached well to the plug, it must not have encrusted very well itself either or maybe you...
Just to clarify, not every palythoa or zoanthid (or other related genuses) carries palytoxin, at least not in dangerous amounts. There may be other...
Ah, so THAT's where Li's system went! :) Looking good so far! You could try putting a fan over the sump or over the tank blowing on the water,...
Its possible your TDS meter is faulty as well. Is there any way to doublecheck against another meter? As far as storing RODI water it should keep...
Unless you have certain deep-water fish light level really doesn't have a big affect on most fish AFAIK. I don't think you'll see any problems.
+1 for 2 ATI Blue+ and 2 ATI aquablue if you really want to go for the most PAR and still have nice color, or even 3 Blue+ if you like it reallllly...
This guy did it with montipora capricornis. I saw on another forum someone had spliced a green paly with a purple one as well, can't find it though...
You won't need a calcium reactor or dosing pumps right off the bat but you probably will want one within the first year if you are planning on having...
Yes, as long as its in better conditions than what caused it to bleach. Do you know why it bleached in the first place?
If it shrinks in on itself its not SPS. Some sort of tunicate sounds reasonable, maybe even a type of sponge.
Most fish sleep at night, not sure what you're looking for. :) The red light does make less of an impact on most things, even if they can see red...
Everything looks good to me. Have you checked your magensium, and doublechecked all your parameters? Make sure you check against a calibrated...
