Stomatella varia. Good snail hitchhiker.
Nass snails can be found by putting food in the tank. They'll come out of the sand to find it. That said, they're stupidly expensive at 3 for $10,...
They float with the current, so even if you move the powerhead, at some point it'll get into the backcurrent.
Ich isn't brooklynella. They're two seperate diseases. I only mentioned ich because the concern was over letting a tank go without fish for long...
According to Brightwell: "Technical Background Controlled dissolution of aragonite within a reaction vessel has become one of the most effective...
They look like nerite eggs, except they seem to be a bit bigger.
Nope, it's actually the dirtiest along with spring water. Water has no flavor without trace minerals. Those minerals get removed when you distill...
You really only need a protein skimmer, and a place to run carbon. Anything else is situational. Even the skimmer is optional, depending on the rest...

There's not too much you can do if copper was used in it. I think there's some stuff you can use in the tank (I think it's a filter pad), but it...
Rinse, scrub with a clean sponge until there's no crud on any of the glass. You made sure copper was never used in it?
There is no apples to apples comparison when it comes to a crab vs a mammal. Crabs grow back limbs as they molt; mammals don't. That's pretty much...
+1 to this, some acans are a bit tricky to ID between species.
...and that's the difference of opinion. Expressing the other point (that it's not a viable option) is no less right to mention, despite the opinion...
I like liveaquaria, and reef empire.
The 240, IMO, should be easier to light for corals since it isn't as deep, and gives you more gallonage, so if you can fit it, that's what I would go...
