Not sure but I think it will not work. Work light is a different spectrum as opposed to a reef light. I dont think you can put a reef bulb in a work light because of different ballast. I'm sure someone will chime in on it.

Glad the boiling water worked for you. I had a massive AP breakout a few months back. Tried the chemicals (Joe's Juice). But, my tank is 31" deep and it was impossible to target them accurately. Boiling was out of the question (to many rocks to boil). Took a chance and bought 2 peppermint...

Anyone have success in breeding emerald crabs? I have 6 in my tank and just saw a big one grab a little one and started doing it (missionary position). At first, I thought he was going to eat the little one. After a few minutes, they departed. Wonder what the odds of having babies?

Just lost my clown goby and want to replace it with another fish (47g tall). Currently I have 2 Perc. Clowns and a 4 striped Damsel . My only concern is the Damsel. When I added the goby. The Damsel was kind of an bully. After a few weeks, the damsel accepted or tolerated the goby and all was...

I have 6 in my 47 gallon and two of them are fairly big. Have never hurt anything in my tank. I feed them dried seaweed.

Me too

I use natural seawater from the pet store (5 gallons) jugs. I only have a 47 gallons tank. So, the cost isnt much of a factor. More than makes up for the simple water change with no mixing.

Mine, never knocked anything over.

I have a long spined and has yet to knock anything over in my 47g. Feed him some Alg. Sheets once a week.

I have a long spined in my 50 gallon reef and he's always on the go. I put some algea sheet on a clip. He loves those and hasnt messed with my Button Poly.

If you do a "Super Glue" search on these forums. You will see that certain types are and can be bought at lowes or any local [hr] . Here's an example thread https://forums.saltwaterfish.com/t/296483/any-ol-super-glue Fiberglass is fine for the tank....wont hurt anything.

Works great and only took a few minutes. Spent more time trying to get the super glue off my fingers. Enjoy

I guess I should. I just used "Vent Screening", you get from Lowe's or Home Depot. It's used to block vents and such from birds, leaves, bugs...etc. Made of fiberglass and basically just cut a 6" X 4" section. Or, whatever size you desire. Once cut, simply folded it in half and super glued the...

Made this little rig up to feed the tank mates and is working great. Also good for the fish and shrimp. I place the frozen cubes in it like Formula 2, Marine Cuisine), Nori sheets and raw shrimp. Makes the critters work for their food and lessens the stuff floating around.
