    Too hot?

    I took the heater out to see if it's malfunctioning. If so, then I narrowed down my problem. As far as the large increase in fish stock, I'll know over the next few days if it sends my two year old established tank into a cycle because I put so much in at the same time. What can I do if that...

    Too hot?

    Well, we've been doing good up until today. Two years, some errors and learning lessons, we've had a pretty good tank. We had an emperor angel for 8 months and she up and died the other day without any signs of problems. We've heard from some people that angels will do that from time to time...

    Freedom filter, I want it!

    This thing looks awesome. I've searched the threads on here and any info on the web about this All Flo Freedom Filter. I think for someone at my caliber, this would be an easy, effective product to add to my tank and get rid of the hang on filters I currently have. I need more feedback. I am...

    LR or No LR??

    on a budget, what would you get first? Is it necessary to have a protein skimmer if you have LR?

    LR or No LR??

    My finace and I were looking in to getting some LR for our 55g FO tank. We currently have a powerhead, 2 emperor 400 bio wheel filters and we use tap water. We've heard the cost of LR is unecessary when you have FO setup because all it adds is a grazing ground for your fish, yet others have...

    No appetite????

    my fish still are showing some ich specks, and I think some lymphocyctis too. Instead to trying to describe what it looks like I'm gonna try and get some more pic on here. This way you can see what it looks like. I did a 25% water change last Wednesday. Should I do another?

    Diamond Goby

    my goby loved to eat brine, blood worms, mysis. He also like the formula two pellets that i have for my tangs. Usually soak my frozen shrimp in garlic too. He seems to like the prime reef flake as well but those seems to fly right out the side of him when he eats them.

    Diamond Goby

    I have a diamond goby and he eats like it's his job. He'a great! I have mine in a 55g, but depending on what other kind of fish you have I think 37g whould be alright.

    No appetite????

    with hyposalinity about 3 weeks, I've been adding AmQuel for the past 2 days to the water and I also have cut back on their feeding to 1x per day b/c they are nto eating very well and it just floats around the tank. Hoping that this will bring down the ammonia, I testes it last night and it was...

    No appettite????

    Both of my tangs are recovering from ich and have no appettite. I was wondering if there was some kind of liquid nutrition that I could get to supplement them until they are feeling better and want to eat. Right now the only thing I have been doing is adding Zoe to the tank water and some to the...

    No appetite????

    tank is four months old and it's a 55g I have a baby whiteface tang about 3-4 in and a blue hippo about the same size. I took in the hippo from my neighbor who was moving and needed to find her a home until she could set up her tank again. I just lost my diamond goby yesterday. He was the only...

    No appetite????

    My tangs have ich and they are not eating well at all. My hippo has coudy eye on top of ich and hasn't swam in 2 days (but is stil breathing and moving her fins). I don't want their immune systems to get any worse than they already are. I've soaking there food in zoe but that's not doing any...
