    My Nitrates!!

    Yeah it's very odd.....everything in my tank is doing fine. I had one fish in the tank but last Saturday I gave him away so he wouldn't die from the nitrates. I'm thinking I might have been overfeeding the tank.

    Kent Ro/Di Unit

    Hey you all I have the Kent HiS 35GPD RO/DI unit. I was told awhile back that after 6 months or so, I have to change the membrane. Is the person talking about the membrane that sits in the horizontal chamber on top of the unit? Also, do I need to change anything else and when? I have been...

    My Nitrates!!

    Alright so I just got back from the LFS and the nitrates tested high there as well. The guy told me to vacuum my sand bed, do a 15 gallon water change tomorrow, then do another 15 gallon water change on Sunday or Monday. How does that sound??

    My Nitrates!!

    It's around 90ppm. I did a 10% water change on Tuesday but it's still up there. I think I'll take some water to test this evening.

    My Nitrates!!

    Hey you all I have a 38 gallon tank with a 3" sand bed and all looks well in it. All my corals and inverts are fine, but I don't know what's goin on with my nitrates!! My ammonia and nitrites are both at 0, pH at 8.2, sg at 1.025, and temp at 81. I have slowed the feeding to every other day...

    Ghost Shrimp??

    Hey Tizzo what's Formula 2?? I just threw in some very small pieces of brine and they didn't touch it but I'm not very worried. Could I feed them a squirt of phytoplankton??

    Next Fish??

    Hey everyone my tank has been up and running for around 3 months and everything is looking great right now. I have a few corals, a clean up crew, and a clam. I only have one fish in there right now, and it's a black and white clown. I was wondering what would be a good addition in regards to...

    Has my tank cycled?

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but I hear that once your trites hit 0, you can start adding a clean up crew...but not TOO much!! Add a couple of nassarius and cerith snails...they should assist in controlling the diatom bloom.

    My Anenome

    I purchased a green BTA almost a week ago and it has been inflating and deflating each day. One of my clowns has taken a liking to it which is good I suppose. Overnight, my anenome decide to relocate under a rock and it seems that it liked being there. Over the past 2 hours, it has deflated...

    Protein Skimmer

    I currently have a CPR hang on back protein skimmer for my 38 gallon tank. I got it used and have been doing maintenance on it around every other week. I'm thinking that I might need a new skimmer and was wondering what some good ones are these days. Any opinions??

    Clown killed my BTA??

    Oh also right when I placed my anemone into my tank, it nestled down where it was placed. My maxijet ph's come with a little cone that you can place over the intake, so I should be fine there. I'll keep you all updated!!
