If you plan on adding the rock later you will not create much of a cycle as there will be almost no die-off experienced to create a cycle. if you...
How much you top off has a ton of variables: Tank temp Ambient Room Temp Ambient Room Humidity Exposed surface area (is there an open sump with more...
********PIXIDUST!!!!******* hahahaha just kidding. Luckily most zoas/shrooms are VERY hardy. Best things you can do for them is give them stable...
If that AquaticLife skimmer fits- it will be 10X better than the Biocube skimmer as the BC skimmer is only airstone-driven while the AquaticLife is...
Tell you what - that skimmer actually looks pretty good!! Especially for 60 bux!! I was considering this skimmer when looking for a skimmer for my...
I would suggest NOT skimping on the skimmer. It is one of the most important pieces of equipment you can get for your tank. I do not have much...
Agreed - I have only had GREAT customer service experiences from this vendor!!! A+ business indeed!!!!
SWEEEEEEET!!!!! Sure seems like these lamps kick some serious butt - especially for the price and extreme ease of use/installation!!!!

I think it has to do specifically with the torch corals - not all Euphyllia species like the heavy flow. The spawns in the 430 tank at my office are...
I just got 2 JBJ ATO's last week for my 120 and 30 gallon reefs. So far, so great!!! I really like that the level does not need to drop more than...
how old is your tank? Other than eating a little corailline here and there, the asternia's are generally benign additions to our reefs. If your...
Thanks everyone!!! It's been about 2 months that the Torch coral has been under the LEDs and they only every seem to extend more and more .. . . I...
That is too large of a temp swing to have daily for corals and fish. Sounds like you just need to put in a heater or two and you will be all set.
I would start by asking how long the filter sock was on there in the first place? They certainly do trap a lot of nitrates and other organic...
