Thanks - i went back and it was a Nano Cube. How has it worked for you so far? I had a 40g. breeder which wasnt hard to keep stable at all - a little concerned about 12g. though. Did you retrofit any additional lights on it or was the included PC 28w sufficient? Thanks for help.

I'm trying to find out the name of these great looking 12g. acrylic tanks i've seen around @ LFSs. They usually have a black canopy and must have filter. light and everything selfcontained in the top and in a black sealed back area. Also have curved scorners. Anyone out there have any ideas...

Sent you some pics. Check your email.

Wondering if anyone out there had a recommendation for a nice acrylic tank to setup a mini-reef. I'm looking to do somewhere between a 6g- 12g. tank. I've seen the eclipse and also Via Aqua. The via's look nice. What experience have you all had? Thanks in advance.

Does anyone know whether you can get antinic bulbs for a 36" PC fixture?

What do I need to do and buy to setup a Q tank? I have a 10 G tank. I guess I need a heater, some kind of filter and light? anything else? Can you have hermits in a Q tank? Thanks everyone.

I bought a large bubble tip tues. and it was doing great until yesterday. Yesterday it was closed all day and this morning it was even more shriveled. I'd fed it like two or three time with dried shrimp and some frozen food. What could it have been and is it dead or just all closed and...

Had a purple-tip that hid in my rock and wasnt able to feed so i assume its dead. Wanted to know what a srong second would be?

I found what looked like two little tiny snails in my tank two days ago and was so proud. First time dad and all. Today I was just inspecting it and saw what look like 4 or 5 tiny little starfish. Could it be? Quintuplets? I think I remember reading that they are asexual but I'm not sure...

In Gaithersburg, MD you have Marine Care specialist. In Silver Spring you have Tropical Aquariums and in Rockville you have congressional Aquariums. Havent been to Marine scene. Hope it helps.

Does anyone know if clipping the lobster's very long feelers a little would be a bad thing for the lobster? I just got a lobster that is only about 2-3 inches long but his long feelers are somewhat cumbersome in my tank with all the LR and Coral. Hes not to big but sometimes I feel like they...

Does anyone out there know why this happens and if it indicated anything - possibly bad conditions or perhaps a positive environment? I've only had it about 2 months now. I initially had it with a single percula clown and they were very happy together. I then went and bought a large maroon...

I am setting up my sump and am not to sure what options I have as a return mechanism from my sump. Should I go with a spray bar of some other return? Thanks all.
