Ok its day ten now the last three nights I have made sure all lights in room are out. I wait 45 mins or so then check to see if hatch. I have also turn off all pumps and power heads in tank. I try to not shine the flash light at the eggs when checking. Last night after checking at the 45min mark...

Most clownfish stick there eggs ' so its probably stuck on the rock and if I'm right its take the rock out or let them die Yes they are stuck to the underside of a rock (the overhang right in between three anemones so removing the rock is not happening). I'm going to let mother nature take its...

So my four year old daughter and I found some eggs today. The problem they laid eggs on the underside of the rock that has six anemones on, so moving the rock is not going to happen. She wants to try to raise them but not going to happen this time (not set up for it). My question is if I put a...

My RBTA spawnig and three months later looking better than before, amazing how my little piece of the ocean is.

Who's the winner, Im ready to try again if need be?

What beach?

Time to try for this weeks $25. It is truly amazing that we can bring a little piece of the ocean into our homes and just watch how different fish and corals interact with each other. And how fragile the ecosystem really is, if we make one little mistake on our tank it could crash, and you could...

I've got a 150 that is 48x24x24 and I like that it gives you a deep look to the tank. I also have a 90 that is only 48x24x18 and it looks more like a flat pics. I'm running LEDS on both. Like said above save money and spend it on good lighting and a good skimmer in a sump. And if you go with a...

Well week three, lets try this again. For the last week I rush home from work to see if my new flower pot coral is perked any. Its like opening presents on Christmas morning.

From what I understand once you put copper in the tank it take a very long time to get it back out. Go hypo I tried it once and it seemed to work. Other may have better answers.

Like I said my tank is fine, and I was just wondering so to prevent such a melt down. I have had tanks for about 10 or 15 years now and never had any problems. Must be doing something right, I have a fish or two some corals that did not make it and the normal algae concerns that's about it. I...

I have heard about tanks crashing, and I was wondering what are some of the causes? My tank is in great shape just wondering.

That is what is looks like to me. Had had the same in my 150 gal and my LFS sold me a Zoster Butterfly fish. After a few weeks I have not seen any Aiptasia sense but now that I have said that word it will probable so back up. The guy at the LFS said that it would eat the stuff and it did, he...

Sounds good, I have a BRS gfo reactor and have been running gfo but not seeing really any improvements. I have not been running carbon guess its time to try it sound like from your expertise, maybe I better before I have problems. I'm Happy for sure thats the only way to be.

Thanks for the reply, thats kind of what I was thinking also I got a really good deal for my LFS. I have traded a few thing over the years with him, and he loves the thing I being him they don't stay in the store long. I think some people make a bigger deal out of things than need be.
