Hi all. I have a friend of mine who is setting up a 16gal bowfront SW tank. The tank will be fish only. I need some input so I can help pick out fish for the tank. What would you guys suggest? I know the obvious, no tangs or any large fish. She likes Clowns, firefish, royal grammas, and...

Am looking to get one of these and was wondering what is the best food for them. In the fish section of this site, the diet is listed as clam. Is that it? Are these fish totally carnivorous of can they eat greens, flakes and algae?

Why dont you guys like the AGA bulkheads??

I just bought the kit myself and like it a lot. It was very easy to install. It was also very easy for me to plumb, I just used clear tubing to plumb the whole thing. I like the way I ended up with large sweeping curves as opposed to sharp 90degree PVC fitting. Also, the clear tubing will allow...

I know this might seem dumb, but am I the only one that looks at these stands and questions whether they can actually hold the weight of the tank and water??? My girlfriend and I just bought a 75gal AGA tank and matching stand. When we lifted the box for the stand, I could swear the box was...

Bump, I would like to know this as well

I too would kile to hear an answer to this. I am planning on having a glass top on my new 65g. to help keep evaporation down. As far as the lights are concerned, I would think that as long as the glass is kept clean, it should not cut down on the light getting into the tank.

I love the "Lion" fish

Here is my 12g

HI all. I am trying to design a sump for my new 65gal AllGlass tank with built in overflow. I am stuck on what type (gph) pump to use to power my return line. The overflow is rated at a maximum 600pgh. I have about 4.5' - 5' of head from the bottom of the 20gal sump to the top of the DT. The...

Didn’t know feather dusters spread so fast, are you sure they are not aptasia? Can you post a pic?

Meat is meat i guess, but Im pretty sure its not a good idea. I remember hearing something like this a while back, some guy wanted to use guppies or gold fish or something to feed his SW fish. I remember something about parasites that are harmless to FW fish, but can kill SW fish. So for this...

Thats an awsome post, I also have a patch of sand in my tank about 4x4" that is covered in this dark green slimy hair algae/cyno... I looked at my timer and OMG I didnt realize that it comes on for 11 hours a day!! So I have put it down to 4h a day. The tank is a 12g with only 1 damsel, so the...

Hi all. I have 3 tiny (about ½” high) mushrooms that came in as HH’s on some LR about 3 weeks ago. I was told that these were mushrooms, but were bleached. Here are my questions…. What does bleached mean, how does it happen? Will the mushroom recover? What if anything can I do to help it along...

About the lighting. 5-7 watts/gal is ok if you plan on keeping low-med light corals, but you will need much more light than that for high light corals and anemones.

Puffer32, you beat me to it, lol I think I type to slow.....

First off, you need to properly cycle your tank! Do a search for cycling a tank, and you will find all your need to know. Once cycled, then you can add your cleanup crew (hermits and snails) then your first fish. I would not recommend getting a damsel for your new tank, I have fount them to be...

Someone on the other thread mentioned that the second this might be a mushroom coral. Can anyone confirm or deny? What type it is, how big will it grow and what can I feed it?? thanks

Hay all, I need some help ID’ing some stuff that came in on my LR. I posted this in the New Hobbiest forum, but didnt get much info... I have looked at the Hitch-Hiker thread a few times, but didn’t see anything that matches what I have. This first pick looks like a sponge, but I was wondering...
