I went to lowes and purchased timers from there, I think they were about $5.00 each. I've been using them for about a year and a half now... No problems at all. The only downfall is their size. I just use 2 power strips, separating my lights and pumps/power heads. Makes water changes a breeze...

I would check mag levels as well. I know it can cause false cal readings. I personally am a fan of purple up. Granted you have to have coraline to grow it. Have you asked your LFS to scrape some off for you? or maybe even another hobbiest? If you can't get any from somewhere local I would be...

If you're looking for something to eat hair algae, I would recommend a sea hair. It has by far been the best for hair algae that invested in and IMO is a great addition to any clean up crew. As for the angle, I had a flame angle that didn't touch a thing. But with any fish they are hit or miss.

If you say you water is good, and your not relying on the quick dip strips for this info I would try changing their position a little lower in the tank. MHO, This has worked for me in the past, I've had a couple of my mushrooms look as if they were melting and moving them solved the problem. And...

When the mushrooms multiply they generally do it 1 of 2 ways. grow a second mouth and split, or the mushroom will move and leave baby mushrooms where it once was. $4 bucks was a good deal for you. Are you looking to add other corals to your tank?

Mushrooms are generally easy to keep. There's really nothing special you have to do for them. With good water conditions and lighting they should do just fine. As long as they are opening up and seem happy, then they are fine. Some of my mushrooms like to eat flake food or shrimp, but it really...

I'm in the Jacksonville area. Anyone interested in comparing tanks and maybe try to do a little frag swapping?

Just a little curious if anyone is in my area, and may be interested in doing some swapping or comparing.

I got a stack of bags from my LFS. I bagged each fish and other tank creatures individually. (seems to cause less stress) With my corals the ones that fit into bags, I wrapped them in paper towels for bagging. I did this with all my livestock. As for my LR, I needed 2 tubs with lids. I put all...

This is my 75G reef. There are so many other corals I want to add to it, but my LFS is a real pain. He only orders the same crap over and over. Dose anyone have any frags they want to swap of sell?

Here is an updated picture of this mystery stuff. Any ideas would be great. I still think it looks pretty neat.

I've been using instant ocean, Ive never had any problems with it, all though i have thought about trying something new.... But I just don't want to end disappointed considering I'm not having problems now.

I really feel your pain... The video I posted a couple weeks back about a mad clown fish.... Thats what he is. As for thumping him, it wont help! Mine bite me and I did thump him.... Now he tries to bite me every time I stick my hand near his "house". Good luck!

I have it in my display tank and it's doing great. Although I did take my tang back to my LFS. He had a horrible attitude and after he got me with his barb for the 2nd time, I was done! The bottle trick worked well!

Mine is not loud & I've had no problems with it. This hobby is just like everything else in life, you can ask for advice and then make the best decision for you. And I am in no way saying you should listen to me or anyone else on here. A lot of the things we know were learned from trial and...

How is the tank coming? Were you able to save it for the most part?

I personally love my AquaC. It has worked fantastic for me. Although I don't remember what I paid for it. Hope this helps a little

For a good laugh watch the video... My clown was having a bad day because I moved some stuff around. He doesn't take well to change! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6tXpE5Gi7I

The tank looks great! I love the clown goby... Mine is a hoot to watch when he comes out to play with the others!
