Gold, Sorry to jump in here but...do you still have your 20"??

You can leave the cc in and add ls sand on top of it but, eventually the sand is going to work its way to the bottom and you are stuck with the cc on top again. I know it is a "waste" of money it seems but....in the long run, it will save you money. I know how I felt yesterday when I took...

Rhonda, Welcome to a wonderful hobby!! The first thing you are going to hear though is to change your cc to ls. It really is much better, do a search on the threads and you will discover why. I just changed mine yesterday because of this forum. Good luck with everything and all I can say is...

Hey guys and girls, I finally did it yesterday. I've got all my cc out and ls in!! Everyone seems happy right now and all is going well. Everyone is right, it does look more natural and the fish seem happier....even my little hermit crab is just scooting all over the place. Thanks so much...

Gold Strip, If you still have it.....I will definately take it. E-mail me at monicas@bpsnetworks.com and we will go through details there. Thanks!!!!

Just let me know and if you want to e-mail me it's monicas@bpsnetworks.com Thanks

Can you add other lights to make it good for a reef tank, or is it strictly for freshwater?

How much do you want for the 55 gal setup?

Thanks so much for you help and advice!! Guy at LFS told us we couldn't have both and we couldn't have more than one cleaner. We've seen on this site that we could have more than one cleaner but, it didn't say that you couldn't keep them together so we just wanted to make sure before we went...

Quick question guy's can a claener skunk shrimp and a fire shrimp coexist in the same tank????????????

Ok guys and girls, quick question for you. I started off with CC but, would like to switch to LS, my tank has cycled and I have live rock in it along with fish and cleaning crew. My question....if I take the live rock out and put in QT tank and CC out and put in QT tank, take water out and put...

Thanks so much for you help...don't want to lose my puffer, he's so sweet...even eats right out of my hand. Other fish aren't showing signs so I hope it gets caught in time.

I think my porcupine has ich white spots showing on fins. Went to lfs didn't have much of a selection' gave me para gaurd by seachem. Does this stuff work and will it harm my invertabrates.

Most likely, from my experience...this is a high salinity problem. I too had the same problem and when I checked my salinity, it was off the charts. I know have snail and crabs and the minute we put them in the tank, they started moving around. This was of course, after we got the level down...

Mikey, Yes, I have done my research now. I know from the drs site what I can and can't have. Unfortunately....I didn't know about this site when I started my swt and I went by what my lfs told me, I now know better and that's why I turn to this board for questions. I know now to not "cycle"...

I think without before and after pics it would be hard to see but, IMO it seems like I'm working in the right direction, I just wanted to be sure. I didn't want my "cc" to die off because I made a "stupid" mistake. I just know that my rock was, according to the LFS, which really seemed to know...

Mike, I'm sorry...what I meant to say was yes, I did cycle my tank with damsels. I must have fat fingers tonight. It's just my husband was going for cleaning crew and I said cleaning crew with a couple of fish...wanted to know what was best. Is the "stuff" growing on my rock the coral...

No, I didn't actually add them to cycle my tank...unfortantuly, bad info from my LFS at the time. They have survived but, I know better now!! I know that I need to get rid of them but, for now...as long as they are ok, I'm keeping them until I know everything is ok. I think by this weekend my...
