It is of my opinon that Live sand (dsb about 3-5in) should go in first. Then put in as much live rock as you can handel leaving 2-3in in front of tank. Angle rock to rear and top. Place some kind of water circulation in rear of rock to keep water moving. Type of pump is up to you and lfs...

Thanks .. Any help I can give will be happy too. Most info and help has come from this board and lfs. terry

Agree with above but also use several editing programs. Each one does something different. I use Picture it a lot. I am still practicing. good luck terry.

I have been getting some green hair algae growing on some live rock. Today I took a tooth brush and cleaned off all I saw in hopes it all went into the skimmer. I know I have had very slight phosphate problem and have replaced the phosphate sponge and have done 25% water change. Other than...

Red Slime algae is really bacteria (cyanobacteria). This is not caused by phosphates. The natural way of ridding the tank of this is to first skim off as much as you can. Then do a 50% water change. Several smaller water changes will not work. You will never get the bacteria down low enough to...

Have ordered several times and was well pleased..had couple of dead shrimp out of a large order and e-mailed them and the replacements showed up without problem. Quality was good. The only problem I have had was talking to a real person. That scared me and kept me from ordering for some time..I...

Bubble coral having baby and would like to frag. The little one is at the base of the soft part about the size of a quarter. How would this be fragged and would it hurt either party? Terry dive1@cableone.net <a href="http://www.cableone.net/tbmoore/bubble.jpg"...

Are they reef safe and do they carry other problems with them? Ich ect.

use gel super glue attatch where you want it to grow. you can also use this to glue other items to skimmer box and pump heads to start growth there.

How long is not long to raise...2wks 3wks to adult??

Trying to raise some brine shrimp for my seahorses in my 110gal reef. After they hatch what do the brine shrimp eat so I can get some size to them? Will some of them grow if not eaten after they are in my main tank? thanks terry tbmoore@cableone.net tbmoore@cableone.net

Yes glue... the gel super glue is excellent to attatch frags..better than the stuff you get at pet store. As for mushrooms I usually stick them down in a small crack somewhere. When you move them they shrink up and you can push them in a small hole or crack. In a day or two they are attatched...

Have used the plastic coke bottle several times and it works. Might take several days butit does work. The way to do it is to cut the top off the bottle just where it starts to go straight. This leaves you with a funnel which you can turn upside down and push inside the other half. Makes it...

I have been told if you have anything worth keeping in your tank..get rid of the apple..will kill everything in talk if it decides to release its poison.
