    Is this a good stocking list?

    The angel will eat your anemone and probably ol' teddy too! Tangs do get ich so make sure your tank specs are right on when you introduce them so as to cut down on stress.

    Opinions on 180 Gal. stocking list...

    Had the emperor the racoon and the majestic together they did well only because they were all different sizes when I introduced them. You will probably have to trade one off in a couple of years but that isn't all bad, new fish I found that angels and butterflies like scallop like you fond in...

    denitrator or macro-algae or dsb or plenum

    Singapore send us some fish!!!!!! How did you know your denitrato smelled inside did you open it? I thought the process took quite a while to build up and adding outside air defeated the purpose. I'm interested in the process you went through and what kind of load you were placing one your system?

    Thank you squid I'm just trying to find out a few things. I've dabbled in this hobby since I was 18 I'm 52 now and I am anxious to learn but I also want to do a little research on this idea.

    Denitrification

    So I'll take it you guys are all coral junkies and farmers. I prefer a peaceful tank of fish to a pile of dirty rocks . And oh by the way thanks for introducing me to another board of know-it-alls who fight among themselves to prove who's right

    Denitrification

    How many of you responders are all fish? If I can maintain 20 parts or less, established fish can do well. It's the new additions that become stressed get diseased and cause all of the problems. I'm not familiar with the plant algae systems but they require additional care also. I assume this...

    Denitrification

    We had a local fs dealt only in reef systems and his system used a sucrose based additive. His no3 was almost 0 now granted you don't have the buildup inreefs of waste but the site I've found to diy one also has a separate tank to reduce the smell. How big was the unit you used and what size...

    Butterfly isn't eating

    One more reason to use scallops is its way less expensive than lfs foods and it smells butterflies love it. The deli is a great place to shop for fresh seafood and its easier to chop if it's frozen and if the fish doesn't like it you can eat it

    Denitrification

    2 questions for the well informed 1) Why no discussion of denitrification units ? 2)what is better for an all fish system than if you are already using ls, lr, wet dry and protein skimmer? I,m considering setting up my 125 and I HATE WATER CHANGES. Your undivided attention would be greatly...

    Butterfly isn't eating

    My best luck with copperbands has been with fresh scallop(not frozen breaded)chopped fine and make a few extra small feedings to give it a chance. It would have been easier if it was the first fish in than the last. Good luck
