    Wi-Fi water quality detector

    Nuts, you'd think something like that existed. I'd love to get alerts on my phone if something went out of whack.

    HOB Skimmer for Aqueon 75g

    I have an Aqueon 75g tank, and this tank has a thick lip on top, measuring about 1.25". No skimmer I've found can fit over the lip, and I need a skimmer badly. Can anyone recommend a skimmer which is sold here? I'm ready to buy today from this site only. Thanks, Richard

    Darasa clam ?

    Clams have photosensitive cells on their mantels as has been said; starfish have them on their legs. These are primitive eyes and are thought to have been a major contribution to the pre-Cambrian explosion (sighted predators, albeit not clams specifically). Science is cool :)

    Distilled water

    Not a good idea, distilled water is typically obtained by way of copper pipes, so you can introduce copper into your tank that way. Wal-Mart has drinking water (green cap) which will work just fine.

    Mushroom question

    Yes they can. It might have had a meal or may be agitated, but it should open up soon enough.

    shriveling torch coral

    Well, your pH is way too low and your calcium is a bit high. Try doing a water change with a good salt mix and see if that helps.

    lighting for a 125 reef

    Go with the 250W, it's what I have on my 125. And I recommend 4 of them to eliminate dark areas.

    What do i do for lighting?

    You can hang the new lights or use legs, which should come with the lights.

    What do i do for lighting?

    The marine glo and aqua glo are still crappy bulbs with no usable output. You'll need to remove the hoods and get some good lighting.

    what have I done

    Airhose isn't likely good enough, I'd go full steam with a powerhead. But yes, they'll be just fine. How large is your tank?

    For anyone buying cheap MH's

    Well, you'll need actinic lighting as well, so you could get the MH for your primary lighting and the T5s for actinic purposes. That's what I do :)

    Elegance coral question???

    If you need to cut down on the light, get some screen, such as the stuff in a screen door, and place it in layers over the top of the tank to filter the light. I hope the best for ya!
