    For Sale 110 complete setup Madison, WI

    Moving across country and after trying to figure out the best way to do this, I have come to the conclusion, selling it intact gives all of my fish and corals the best chance to survive. I HATE doing this because my tank has been doing so well and everyone is so content, but there is just too...

    decorator crab's destruction

    I recently had the same problem with my decorator chowing down on my polyp mat. He is currently doing "15 to life" in the refugium, but is doing very well in there. I had caught him in the act of ripping pieces/strips off and happily munching down.

    White dust on LR ??????

    I do not believe it is my Kalk settling. I mix my kalk the nite before and only skim the middle so no real amounts of sediment are being added. I think its little pieces of Lrock that the critters are leaving behind as they "mow" thru the reef each day. It only settles into the crevices and...

    SWF.com cleanup crew ...

    Careful on the crabs !!! I have 3 sitting in my refugium because once I started adding my corals they began nibbling. Sallylitefoot, decorator, and an emarald are all POW's in the refugium because of this. I'll take them to the LFS but I should not have gotten them in the 1st place. Having...

    Live rock dilemma..

    Gulfview's premo deco is better than anything I have seen at any LFS. You won't find as much life on other rock, whether online or at a store, but you will pay for Gulfviews quality no question.

    White dust on LR ??????

    Curious, is the white dust created by the crabs and snails crawling all over the LR something that requires powerheading off once and awhile, or should it be left alone and let nature take its course. I just thought maybe by blowing it off once and awhile, maybe new growth would happen...

    peppermint shrimp predators

    My coral banded is awol most of the time as well. He is starting to come out a little more when the lites are on, but for the most part he hides in the reef. They sure are great looking, they should be out more ! Wait a few days b4 you give him up for dead though. Do you have enough rocks...

    lfs won't sell to me!!!

    For my 2 cents worth, I spend a lot of time researching almost everything online. I almost never walk in to buy anything without 1st doing my shopping online. What I have found regarding this hobby is that LFS's charge 20 - 30% more for drygoods than any online store. With fish and corals it...

    Do all emerald crabs hide?

    I got 4 of them with my cleanup crew from this site, very neat looking crabs aren't they ? They stayed in the reef until very recently, now they pretty much are out during the day with everyone else. Took about 6 weeks for them to start doing that. They have good eyesite as well, if you...
