    ARH many of my hermit crabs are missing!

    The only reason why I'm saying that they are missing is that I see them dead behind rocks and stuff...then missing within a day or two thats why I said if something is eating them....and they are very large so hardly not noticeable...they're about 2.5" believe it or not.

    ARH many of my hermit crabs are missing!

    bah...if that's the case, why even bother to buy them? so many people recommanded me getting them for my tank and I paid almost $100 for 15 electric and god knows how much for 10 burgendy. So any needs of buying more of these "fighters" if they going to kill themselves then there is no point...

    ARH many of my hermit crabs are missing!

    I got plenty of shells and they are all large crabs...probably largest they get so I got about 10-15 empty large shells in the tank. I did see some fighting though but i usually broken them up. :

    lighting my 72 gallon bowfront

    I havn't had other brands, but I can tell you that I really love this fixture, In everyway it's good cept the bulbs( I like other colors then what they give), but then again even if u change all the bulbs it wont cost as much as other brands.

    What's wrong with my foxface?

    I have a 72gallon bowfront and the water conditions/temp are there they should be and as for tankmates, just few until I get the hang of it. Just turbo snails, hermit crabs and a Yellow Watchman (goby)

    lighting my 72 gallon bowfront

    I have the odyssea 48" metal halides 2x250W HQI 4x65w true antics and 6 moonlights, well worth it so far. bad thing about it is that you have to change the bulbs, which still it is worth it because then you'd have back up bulbs just incase. I recommand hanging it, I believe that the coralife...

    What's wrong with my foxface?

    I got this cutie about two weeks ago from my local pet store and it was all fine. just couple days ago I noticed that there is a sorta sack on it's back and back tail, I tried to take the best picture but it's very camera shy. Any idea what could this be? I doubt it's Ich because she's very...

    Enough Lighting?

    doesn't look enough light if you ask me, it seems you have lots of dark areas and sps need more light.

    630 Watts Too Much ?

    I was told that there is "never too much lighting" for saltwater :) it does seem that your calcium is a bit too high, try to bring that down to around 420-435, use alk and purple-up to get a lot of coraline in your tank, but make sure that you keep everything steady if you don't then it goes to...

    light hmmm

    yes those are 20k's they arn't that blue though, the picture seems to show it more blue, I saw a really nice 14k and I'm thinking of buying that just because I need a little lighter color, my tank is in sort of dark spot so need a bit whiter color. I bought both of them for $80 on ---- and they...

    light hmmm

    to be honest, I love it a lot it really is worth the price, havnt had any problems with it yet, it runs smooth and nice! if you want to buy one, go for it, the 760W fixture is worth it, on top of that make sure youd hang it or keep is high over the tank, heat issues suck, Im still working on...
