Hmmm, my water chemistry is as pristine as possible, according to my tests. And I just added a new batch of Chemipure Elite to my phosban reactor,...
I have a koralia 4 blowing directly at it, but it is about 6-8 inches away. Is this too much? I have looked closely at the acro and don't see any...
Unfortunately he did not survive the experience, since it was difficult to pick him out of his hidey-hole in the rock. I thought I might stick him...
A few weeks ago I was looking at my tank at night and noticed a gorilla crab marauding through my live rock. It must have been a hitch-hiker on a...
Sorry to hear about this. The thing about clams is that they can be declining for a long time before they die, and they show no symptoms of anything...
I've posted before with problems with my blue-tipped acropora. Previously, some sections have turned black and sloughed off. Now, a previously...
Ok, so your alkalinity is low. This may not be contributing to the elegance coral's problems, but it is something that can be dealt with. You can...
Make sure your tank has a lid. They are notorious jumpers (as I learned, to my dismay, from personal experience).
Ok, green open brain. Is it on the sandbed? Most of them like it best there. Should be under moderate light, low-moderate (not heavy) flow. Is...
The 26 degrees, I assume, is Celcius. But the alkalinity at 2.2 - not sure what that means. Even if that is in mEq/L it is pretty low.
Any idea what kind of brain coral it is? (There are lots of different kinds). If you aren't sure, a picture would help. If it is not opening, it...
Couple of things.....are you treating the fish with any medication, or just quarantining them? If you are going to use copper-based medications,...
If you do get them, keep us posted on how they fare. I was interested in flame scallops a while ago at my LFS, but had always been told they won't...
Nice pic - although there seem to be other links that don't work? Anyway I LOVE planted FW tanks. I'd have one in my house along with the reef...
Welcome! Tank looks good so far - be sure to post lots of pics as you continue to develop it.
So you guys believe that mandarins will not introduce parasites into the tank.....ok, I might be willing to do that. To be safe, would it hurt the...
I guess part of my question is what is the best way to transfer copepods into a QT? With a piece of chaeto, or rock, etc? And also what medication...
Ok, so I am nearing the end of my fallow period for my DT. My fish have been in quarantine for 7 weeks with the DT fallow, and I am planning on...
If there's no QT available you really only have 2 choices - put it in the tank or return it. If you googled pods and this looks somewhat like those,...
Don't know about deliberately adding aiptasia....sounds a little dangerous. Copperbands also like to munch on tubeworms. So if you can get your...
