I think after 50+ years of searching, if they exist, at least one would've been caught by now. The only evidence that I've seen to this day is a...
Nice addition. Beautiful, indeed! Congratulations. :)
Yes, as they feed on most anything including waste matter.
Yes. They were on/in a rock on which a new coral was mounted. Mixed a gallon of tank water with the recommended amount of MM and dipped for 15...
You'll most likely need more rock, as well. Most fish tend to be more peaceful with each other when each one has it's own "safety spot" to run to in...
I've used Melafix Marine from API with 100% positive results, but that was before I learned that the majority of bristleworms are not only harmless,...
Hi, To answer the question in your thread title, a fuge is much better. The wet/dry trickle filter w/bio-balls provides the same exact thing as your...
You definitely need to start with a level stand. I had a neighbor who set up a 55g FW tank a couple years ago on unlevel floor. The water level from...
Hi, and welcome to 3Reef! While I agree that a lot of nuisance algae is mostly harmless, we do try to keep it at a minimum as it detracts from the...
Beautiful tank! Nice video, too.
Hi, IIRC, good quality T5 bulbs are only good for a year. For stock bulbs in a cheaper fixture is probably less. Once any bulb loses its color...
Hi, That's pretty chunky and rough. I'd recommend you switch with fine sand since you're wanting fish and inverts that burrow.
+1 Very nice.
Hard to guess without a pic, but I'd say if you like it, leave it alone. Just make sure your corals can adapt.
Depends on what type corals you plan to keep. With both you only have 32x turnover. That would only be good for corals that require low to moderate...
You want to just feed whatever it will eat and remove what it doesn't. You may want to feed several times per day though if that's all it's taking in...
Should be growing out of the rock. I believe the tentacle-looking thing is another type of sponge.
Most definitely! The purpose of using a live fish is to feed it so it will help create ammonia to kick-start the bacterial colony.
Beautiful tank- can't argue with that, but certainly you're not implying that such beauty will happen overnight if we just throw caution to the wind...
Not too sure about the first one- might be some type of sponge. There are so many that seem to grow out of the woodwork in newer tanks. The nem is a...
