I purchased a reef ready aquarium with a back blackround several months ago. Today i notice water had somehow leaked onto the backround and its starting to peel like crazy. My question is if anyone knows what the most fish stores use and if theres somekind of filler i could use. Whatever they...

I setup a prime 1/10 hp chiller about 1 month ago on my 75 gallon reef with metal halides. Everything was going smooth and it was keeping it constantly at 80 degrees. I recently had the AC unit off for a few days and the temp in the house was around 92 now my chiller wont chill. I havent been...

wow thats a trip ive never seen a blue hippo look anything like that.

I have a ricordia frag that attached to a tiny piece of rock, can i use krazy glue from the store to attach to bigger rock in tank. If so which brand? thanks for any answers

ok i think the clams clear web may be him trying to anchor. Im really hoping someone can help about the feather duster though the worm is leaving through the back of the tube, does this mean he is going to die? if so should i get him out of there so he doesnt polute my water when he goes into a...

Im not sure whats going on my clam is fully open and appears to have a long clear thread with a clear mucus sac attached at the bottom side of him is this bad? Also my feather duster worm appears to be leaving the casing, but his crown is still completely out.

i bought the same one as well, i have a question to the other members who bought one from swf.com on that 29.99 sale. Im assuming looking at the two pics all the clams were about the same size around 3" and am wondering if they need to be spot fed or if there big enough to get the energy from...

Nassarius snails eat all the stuff that settles in the sand.Cerith snails eat algae and sift the sand, but i think there also the favorite target for hermits. Astrea eat algae although there not nearly as effective as the mexican turbos imo and they constantly fall upside down and die. Mexican...

wow what a difference a day makes. This morning i turned on my lights to see my tang eating off the rocks. The feather duster was able to move from under the chiller and the clam mantle is extended nicely. I tried right now to feed the tang the brine/spirulina an he ate almost a whole cube even...

Omg i hate this hobby!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just turned on the lights to try and get a pic. The feather duster i got today was floating around in the current until finally got stuck to a rock directly under the chiller output so now he is getting blasted with cold water. I found my brand new squasmosa...

Actually looking at it again it looks more like 3 little black barbs surrounding his spike. I can get a pic in the morning. i was going to try algae sheets, but theres algae all over the lr and he seems to have no interest at all, my experience with other yellow tangs was they were constantly...

I'm having an extremely difficult time getting my yellow tang to eat. I purchased him 5 days ago and the first day he was nibbling at the algae on the lr, but since then nothing. I have tried Ocean nutrition flakes along with frozen brine shimp with sparalina. Its a 75 gallon and after doing all...

amazing tanks.

Ya that would look pretty good, i like those polyps. Can i keep a deresa clam in 7.5 watts per gallon. I have 2 150watt metal halides and 2 actinic.

what are gsp's?

I think that sounds like a good idea about the leather. Thanks for the compliment on the rock work.

Just a few pics of my 75 gallon soon to be reef,nothing in it as of now but almost there. Im debating on weather or not to add live rock to the middle or leave it as is, opinions would be appreciated.

Yes without a doubt i would say this is the most rewarding hobby. Im glad to see there is alot of younger people getting into it as it is something that follows most for life. Last year i lost my 20 year old wife as well as my grandmother to cancer, life sucks right now to say the least. One...

Wow looking at your post again i noticed your from glendale california. Glendale is where i also lived back then, small world! Do you go to Tropical Imports? if not you should great prices and great workers. Still go every now and then fish stores in santa clarita suck.
