I felt the exact same thing today when pulling a carbon sock out of my overflow when my arm touched my light fixture. I haven't investigated the...
The first time I prepaired water for a water change after I got my new tank I gave myself a hernia! I didn't feel a thing when it happened but I...
No issues with mine either. Works great. Every few months I need to go in with a razor and clear away the coraline though. I'm always nervous about...
Make sure copper or other medications were never dosed into that tank. If not, it sounds like a no-brainer then. Go for it.
With FOWLR and reef tanks you will get coraline algae growth that will eventually have to be removed from the inside of the tank with a razor blade....
So far so good. The toadstool has completely healed as far as I can tell. I'm still planning on adding one hour of incremental light at a time....
I doubt that changing the lighting will suddenly cause a mushroom to die and pollute the tank. Chances are that if they aren't happy they will start...
Do you have a picture of these worms. Worms aren't bad unless they are eating something you don't want them to eat. They are part of your ecosystem...
Can you put it back in the 55? How is the lighting in the larger tank? My toadstool started to go downhill because my bulbs were dimming as they...
I've seen mythrax crabs do this also. I have one huge one in my tank. Whenever I see the dust cloud I look and sure enough there is Bruiser the crab.
I also have them. I mainly see them on the LR and glass. Mine all have a pink splotch in th middle of the top side. They stay small, about the...
Bill, How long have the corals been receding like this? Did it start when you added the Skilter? Please describe your lighting more. Are you...
JimDaddy, you have a good eye. That is an Eshopps overflow that I'm using now that I have a sump. I started withou a sump and used a HOB AquaC remora...
If you can get your hands on some fully cured LR from a good LFS then purchase it. The rock I bought was full of life and full of coraline algae. I...
Well I found the problem. My maxijet 1200 was clogged with Chaeto algae that got sucked into it. It looked like the flow out of it was fine so I...
It truly is hit or miss. Your best luck is buying a clown and anemone in the LFS that are already hosting. Make sure you have the proper lighting...
Forgot to say that when you get your RO unit you should do several water changes to get your phosphates and nitrates down. It is probably very...
A surface skimmer looks like this [IMG] It is usually used when you have a sump. Basically the water is siphoned out of the skimmer and down to...
Thanks, I'll assume that this is a good anemone to keep in the tank. It's actually becoming attractive now. When I first saw it I was afraid it was...
[IMG] This guy came in on a piece of live rock months ago. It was brown under my PC lights. Under my T5s it is green and red. I've seen it catch...
