Likely diatoms. They feed on silicates released from new plastic. They're kinda like algae.
It's also far too small. AZDR mentioned that he had one that starved in a 100+ gallon tank with 300+ pounds of sand in a very deep sand bed.
You can definitely do a few of them, maybe 3-4, possibly more, depending on your rockwork and how much room they have to forage and hide. The only...
A carbon prefilter does that.
What size tank? What size star? What size fish? The brittles and serpents are generally the easy ones. They're different from the normal starfish,...
The tendency is to discuss the issue thoroughly in the attempt to help someone understand the reasoning behind "do it this way", rather than have...
That's definitely not a society of ultrawealthy reefers or anything...
It's the potential lack of nutrients that would get you, if you only drank DI water for a long period of time. Like AZDR said, it doesn't matter if...
It's definitely a good sign if the clowns aren't fighting.
I would get rid of the pressure tank, or T it off before it gets to the tank so you can bypass it for tank water. I would flush the membrane, and...

If only outdoor survival skills applied to prison, his stay could end up being much more entertaining and informative.

I would use PVC for either the bend over the edge of the tank, or the whole return, to keep it secured.
Ah, so now you're beginning to see that the engine being unusual has to do with the fish also being unusual, yes?
Either something in the water causing you to think differently, or something not in your water killing the corals. ::)
Bad crab. Probably a Xanthiid. I'd crunch it and feed it to a shrimp, if you have one in your tank.
Heh, the poo thing is pretty funny. As for the eye color, I don't know if you mean the iris or the pupil. The pupil changes depending on the angle...
...and the nitrates? It seems the phosphates are high-ish. It's begging for an algae outbreak once the nitrates get to an acceptable level for...
