Noticed this when my toadstool's tentacles were retracted. It's basically a little ball of tentacles clinging to the main stalk. It looks like it is...
Thanks for the video waste management. I had a bunch on a piece of branched LR that kept spreading between the branches. Bought an emerald crab to...
Are you using RO/DI water for top offs and water changes? If so, have you verified the purity with a TDS meter?
James, why do you say the blood and skunk are not compatible? I've had a fire (blood) shrimp in the same tank as a skunk cleaner for about a year....
I don't clean the back or the sides. Completely covered with coraline. The only problem is that my astraea snails prefer the glass. So, if a rock is...
I had a similar problem with my 72g tank stand. I wanted to use a bigger tank for my sump/fuge but it wouldn't fit through a door. So I used two 10g...

I test and record nitrate, calcium, pH, dkh, phos, sg, temp once a week.

If you add live rock with coraline you will eventually get it everywhere. I'd let nature do its thing.
I'd go RO/DI. It's just an RO unit with one or two cannisters od DI resin attached it. They are used as the final filter step. It will cost just a...
Good thing it wasn't something more serious like a blue ringed octupus. I have read that the toxin in zoas can be lethal if it gets into an opened...
Thanks for the feedback. Mine has always done this so I figured it was normal. I just wanted to hear how mine compares to others. It's pretty amazing...
+K to you for good luck. Hope the tank pulls through. I'd run lots of carbon in the meantime.
Sorry to hear about your fish losses. I'm wondering if most of the contamination isn't directly from your fingers to the food. If that's the case...
Don't really know what caused my nitrates to go down; adding chaeto, adding DSB or adding more lighting. After adding Chaeto it took about 2 months...
I couldn't get my ocellaris to host a BTA. I tried the picture trick but it didn't work for me. I introduced a tomato clown and after a month and a...
I add about 2 gallons a day with a 72 gal tank. Running without a top on the tank or sump/fuge. Tank is at 81F, house is at 72F. My tank makes a...
If you are just starting up your tank you really should wait a year before adding an anemone. I've read several books that say BTAs do the best in...
I believe the saddle is the natural host for the o. clown. However they are supposed to be more difficult to care for. They also tend to roam the...
