Your sailfin will likely pick on it, if it's been in the tank for any length of time. The sailfin and atlantic blue tang are in the same genus,...
Yeah, I have thicker stuff too. About the size of angel hair pasta. I had even thinner stuff that did ball up easily, though. There's definitely...
Well, the acrylic box has holes pre-drilled, as I used the inside box of this acclimation set. The holes are there so you don't have to net the fish,...
+1. Try removing some of the chaeto, since you'll see growth when there's less of it competing for the nutrients.
I mounted the eggcrate box on a magfloat, using gorilla glue (urethane glue, brown color). The stuff is safe, but it needs to be 100% dry before you...
You can see them both in this pic. [IMG]
Thinking about this, I think I know exactly what your problem is with the valve, beyond totally not needing it. Did you make sure that there was...
+1. My return line has its output at the same level as my overflow box, so it will only return the amount that the overflow box will drain anyway.

Another to consider may be the Halichoeres melanurus.
I don't think they're blastos either, but you can understand why there's a bit of confusion.

The UVLs are also meant to be run as VHO bulbs, so you're going to get spectrum shift with them.
I use zip ties from electrical to clamp barbs exposed to water, use 2 or 3, and tighten with pliers. The rest I use the standard steel...
May I ask, why wouldn't you put a chalice on an angle?
....
Pressure rated pumps are built with backpressure in mind. They perform better than a normal pump under high head loss, and when pumping through large...
I was fairly sure they have 120v mains, just like the US. I'm wondering how you're running 170v on your stuff, OS, and why.
Sorry that it died. But please, don't replace it.
