I need to replace my Compact Flouresecent fixture ( I think a ballast went out) and Im not familiar with the T5 & 6 lighting, what are the differences between HO T5 & T6 and Compact Flouresecent? I have a 75 gal with LR and only a coupe of fish right now.

I have a Coralife 48" with two white and two blue bulb. I replaced the bulbs and the whites flicked and the stopped working. What should be checked from here? or can these be sent back for repair?

It's called A Hawaiian Tattoo. It will eventually dissolve. I ran my the side of my knee into a couple of urchins while diving in Kauai last time. Hurts like hell and may swell some but not a big deal.

Patience!!!

On Kauai I only saw one fish store and they didnt have too much. Seemed to me that you could just go diving and see all the fish you wanted.

Plum, How do you check the phospahte levels with Salifert? The label is confusing to me.

I want to try the Salifert phosphate eliminator but the directions for testing are a bit confusing. Do you test water from the skimmer cup? or use the foam ?

When using Salifert to lower phosphates how can you test the water? Do you take the water from the protein skimmer to test it? The direction on the bottle are a bit confusing. TIA

I've got a marron clown & a foxface and the puffer doesnt bother them. However I think if there was something small enough he would eat it. The puffer is a big pig!!

Grenich Mean Time, Airlines and others use it so they have the same starting point for times and dates.

How about goldfish?

I read in another post flowerpots have a rep for quick death. Is this true or how can you get them to live longer?
