I started building a 20 gallon sump today. The acrylic pieces for the baffle were a little too big so they are curved a bit. I hope that doesn't...
Can Catalaphyllia be propagated?
I put a tiny piece of frozen krill in a shell. Thawed and rinsed of course ;). They seem to be liking that. When I go to the LFS I'll grab some algae...
There are two types of hermits in my tank, Dwarf Red Leg (Clibanarius digueti) and Scarlet hermits (Paguristes cadenati). The Scarlet are behaving...
Ah well, it was worth investigating. Maybe if I lived in the arctic I would try it, but I live in a populated city with quite a bit of industry.

Good call. They seem to be doing better. One of the closed polyps is opening. The spot they were in was low flow and seems to have some detritus...
I'm not sure how much water will be in the return section. Any way to find that out without having the sump full and running?
This will be my first attempt at a sump. I picked up a 20 gallon tank today to use as a sump for my 40 gallon. The dimensions of the 20 are roughly...
Float switch in reverse?
