Are you using RO/DI water? If so, have you tested the TDS? If not, get an RO/DI filter. You can find them for <$100. As for the lighting, when...
Get a TDS meter to measure the quality of your RO water. You may need to replace your membrane and prefilters. If you have DI cannisters you may need...
Thanks. I put them in my fuge last night just to be on the safe side. Maybe I'll see them again. If I found two in the DP I'm sure there are more....
The lights had been on most of the day when I saw them. They do look different in the closeups from the way they looked in the tank. I think I'm...
These guys are tiny. Really hard to get some good pics. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
I've never seen one of these before. Today I came home from work and spotted two of them. I pulled both of them and they are in quarintine in a...
You'll be able to take great pics. That lens doesn't really do macro though. I have the Xti and leave it in auto whitebalance mode. Use ISO 800 or...
Look at this.http://www.3reef.com/forums/id/coral-hitchiker-id-please-57853.html I have one too. I'm betting mine will grow up to be a Colt.

T5s put out much more light than PCs. I recently upgraded from PCs myself. I had an Odyssea PC fixture and it was fine. I don't know anything...
The glass on 10 gal tanks is so thin I don't think you need to worry about tint or light loss.
My wife has hinted that she is becoming a reef tank widow. Took her out for dinner at our local Sushi place. Sat at the Sushi bar directly in front...
You'll need one that can do more than 30gal if it is sitting on concrete in the cold garage.
Rub it in why don't you. We live in the far NW suburbs of Chicago. For the last two years we've had a family of red foxes move in under our porch...
I don't do anything to my sand bed. My power heads are set to the point where I can see some grains of sand ocassionally moving due to the flow. The...
It does generate a lot of waste water but there's not a whole lot you can do. If you buy the water from the grocery store you're probably impacting...
My 1st attempt at Xenia resulted in failure. They kept shrinking until they disappeared. I tried dosing iodine to bring them back but it didn't work....
Welcome to 3reef. Your coraline is adapting to the brighter/different light. Some of the coraline doesn't like the new lighting conditions and is...
Looks like a Xenia to me. The polyps look a little thin for Xenia though so I'm not entirely sure. Does it open and close its polyps?
You may have to figure it out by trial and error. You can put a valve on the output of your pump to control the flow. The more flow you have the...
