It would be a shame to waste all that work and money, but then again, you have to decide what's best for your future in the long run. There will be a...
Yes, post away! Who knows how many you may help in the future by sharing your experiences. You might even convince a few to struggle through their...
I've been wondering about that, regardless how you set up this system. Each time it runs, there will be salt left inside; and each time an old layer...
Looking good, so far. :) Welcome, and good luck!
Perhaps some people misunderstand the concept, but keeping your pets healthy and overfeeding are two different things. Making sure they get enough...
Wow! Just spent the past hour or so reading the first 20 pages. lol Absolutely stunning photos, Cheryl! Had a few laughs along the way, too. Just a...
Hmmm... Clowns don't normally move about much except at feeding time (lol), but my Chromis swam around the tank like any other Damsel. Did take a...
While Damsels are generally hardy enough to survive a full cycle, they tend to become very aggressive toward new tankmates after having the entire...
How long have they been in the tank, and what other livestock do you have? It's fairly normal for smaller reef fish to find a retreat and hang out...

You're quite welcome! :)
I usually get the frozen variety from the LFS.
Do you have anything for the rest of us? :P (Apparently Windows' version of "3D acceleration" isn't true 3D). Tank looks great from what I could...
Most any meaty seafood- clam, squid, shrimp, fish, etc chopped into small chunks. Will only need one or two small pieces once per week.
If your corals don't appear to be suffering damage, it's one of the good guys. The Fireworm, which gave bristleworms a bad rep several years ago, has...
I believe you may have missed the more detailed "Overview"... Makes one wonder why they labeled it peaceful in the stats. :)
+1 to all the above. Whatever type algae you have, it's most likely caused by the nitrates/phosphates/silicates/whatever that has soaked into the...
I believe it is thermostat controlled... but OUCH! You can buy a decent window AC for less, then both you and your tank could enjoy cooler temps....
With that being the case, it will take a while for all the silicates to leach back out of the rock and sand. The best thing is leave the diatoms...
