    Pink algae spreading

    I feed with Sallys brine shrimp and truth be told I tend to overfeed a little bit. But it still all gets cleaned up in 2 - 3 minutes. Ive seen this algae growing on the surface of peoples sumps and fuges and was always told it was a type of coraline algae. ?????? No clue. Thanks for...

    New 2 clams

    No worries. I appreciate all the help. The clam is actually doing much better. The mantle is finally coming out of the shell and its reacting well to both light and the fish that pass by. Ill post some pics later. Again thanks for the help.

    New 2 clams

    Its still hanging on. I noticed last night it was open a little and a small appendage kept poking out until a curious crab would get close and then it would pull back in. It still opens a half inch or so during the day and then closes at night. I have a current light with actinic and MH light...

    New 2 clams

    Just bought this clam off of the SW sale. Have never done clams so I thought Id give it a chance. My tanks 90 gln and a year and a half old. I temp acclimated it and put it in. It is opening and closing but thats it. Not real reactive either. Is this normal for awhile? Hes been in for 3 days.

    Should I break my reef to cure ich?

    I had it for a while in my 90 gallon. Instead of treating it I just became hyper vigilant with my tank. I kept the water ultra clean and pure. constant water changes every other week or so. It went away and I havnt had it since. Good Luck!

    getting my clown to host w/ pics

    I must say that when I first heard about using pics to get your clowns to host I laughed. I have a false perc and a bubble tip that have been together for about a year w/o any interest. I put a pic up about a month ago and periodically moved it around. I finally gave up last week and took it...
