I agree with Oceans here, just build a taller stand, I like the look of shallower tanks.
It's cyno still. Mine gets like that as it grows. It will eventually grow denser.
BTW, I used to have one of those skimmers, if you want to dry skim you should put the cup as high as possible. If it's still wet, you may have a lot...
If you have it on the 54gal, it shouldn't be removing enough water to do anything to the water level in that tank. You culprit is probably...
I had 3 and killed them in a dosing accident as well. They have very high metabolisms and should be fed small meals several times a day.
I'm sure you realize it, but you have some bad GHA, check you nitrate and phosphate levels and cut back on feedings.
If there was no to very little standing water in it it may be ok, but keep in mind there is already water in there, I have a 20gal long as a sump too...
I was going to warn you about the trigger too, you're shrimp will be lunch someday.
Look like some sort of zoa or paly, they may color up as it appears that they have been in low light for a while.
Drill a small hole just under the surface, it that doesn't work, it means your sump is too small for that sized tank.
I've had astrea snails and they have knocked over any thing yet. They aren't huge, but are medium sized and do decent job at cleaning.
It does look good so far, nice job
Yea, use epoxy. You can use it under water or out. It's also great for fixing frags and corals. You can buy it at any lfs or hardware store. If you...
The better thing would be to throttle back the pump by placing a ball valve on it. What type of overflow and what type of pump (w. GPH)
I agree with the tang, unless you're planning on upgrading at some point. I have a picasso clown and a normal false perc., they get along fine, but I...
Oh, so it's not actually you skimmer, it's the overflow. I just use a small piece of airline tubing, never sucked up any water, although you do need...
The rimless tanks you see are made out of thicker glass then normal tanks, keep the trim on or do a Euro style brace.
I would get the 50 just b/c its wider, the amount of fish IMO depends more on the total water volume rather then surface area. If you have a small...
How fine is the sand? I know I responded to your other thread, but I have fine sand in my 55 and have lots of flow without any issues of sand...
Well, I guess that's a different story. Well, you could try getting a razor blade and cutting/scrapping off the mushrooms. I ended up doing that to a...
