So your saying they won't get any larger? The zoo's have been in the tank for a little over an hour and have opened up fully. I can see a couple of arms sticking out here and there. Five minutes later, they are somewhere else. Pretty cool! Thanks, Joe

Well, today I went to the LFS and bought some pretty cool looking Zoo's along with some Star Polyps. While I was aclimating, I noticed that there was a small blue legged hermit crab tangled up in the plastic bag. No problem, I'll get him undone, well, I looked a little closer an figgured out...

COOL! I will for sure try that out. It will be the first thing I try tomorrow after work. Thanks! Joe

Hey guys, I really want to move my Pink tipped anemone because since day one (about two weeks) in his new home, he moved to the back of the rock and out of my "good" visibility. No I cant move the rock cause it's too big, I know not to peel him off the rock cause it will more than likly hurt...

Ha HA! Hey guys, I never found anything on a search, but I have a couple of weird green finger/stick looking type things growing right off my LR. The water has been in great condition for about 2-1/2 months (since new) and everything looks great. WHAT ARE THEY??? Thanks in advance! Joe Here are...

Kenny, I have some Frogspawn waiting on you so you can replenish your tank. I hope it all works out for you man. I know you want to buy somthing, but I bet it should wait a while to put anything in there just yet. There is a question........when can Kenny start to put new corals/mushrooms back...

HA! Good to see you here as well. Your tank looks awesome by the way. Yep, 19 confirmed twice is pretty high. Can I have some of that? I guess I need to buffer it up right? Still kinda confused as to what to do to raise it. I guess I need to spend a little more time talking to JB "DO A SEACH"...

Hey guys, I have been checking my KH in my 10 gallon with a Tetra-Test and I have been getting very high results.....like 17 to 19 drops....... Then I take a water sample to my LFS and they confirm the KH to be around 11.5 to 12 drops using the same exact test kit brand new out of the box. So, I...

Yes, I was. I rechecked it and it was about 17. I did a 25% water change so we will see how much that changed it. I bet it dropped it down a little. Thanks! Joe

Yes you are right, I had to go get the bottle and personally check that I didn't have them mixed up. I will change them back. I am going to trtake the kH and see what I come up with. Sorry once again for the mix up. Joe

lion_crazz........sorry about the confusion!!!! I put the KH reading where the PH was supposed to be. Sorry about that, does it look better now? Thanks guys, you all are awesome! Joe

The lighting is a Coralife 96 watt. Ok, this kinda gives me an idea of how I want to go about adding fish. Thanks guys! Joe

I have a 3 week old 10 gallon Nano. Things could not be better.(I think) I had put it together with 15lbs of LR and 10lbs of LS. I am not using a skimmer at the moment. I have one of those "hang on the back" style filters with the bio wheel on it. Sorry, I don't have a model. Lighting: Coralife...

Will get that checked up ASAP. Thanks for the advise. Joe

The LFS stated it was 80% cured when it was purchased. No ammonia tests have been done yet. Didn't think I really needed too since the other levels seemed relatively ok. (please correct me....I am a newbie still) Yes, calcium is a little low, but it will be going up slowly. I understand on these...

Hey guys, LOVE THE SITE! There is soooo much info to soak up here. I have a brand new 10g tank w/15lbs of LR and 10lbs of LS. It has been set up for one week yesterday. I have been adding a little calcium and a little buffer but thats about it. I think it has done it's cycle (if I am...
