yeah i can't believe nobody knows what it is

Thanks Reef- I have 150w MH on a 29 gal. Calcium, alk, ph all are good too. Do they NEED to be on the rock or just prefer it?

Girlfriend just brought one home from the LFS. Usually I know as much as possible about what i buy for the tank but this time I'm a little unprepared. Where should the maxima go in the tank- on the sand bed or on the LR?

no, it is absolutely not red slime bacteria. Sorry, i should have made that clear to begin with. I've been at this long enough to know it is not that. It is very dry looking and stiff.

I have flat, pale green algea growing on the rear glass of my tank and it is starting to turn pink in spots. Does coraline start out green and turn pink? It looks like this is what is happening.

I have this stringy looking red stuff frowing off a piece of LR. Looks almost like thin pieces of straw. Anyone have any idea what this could be? Is it good or bad?

my maroon started hosting my bubble coral almost immediately I put the bubble in the tank. Since then, it's fins are not looking good at all. Could this be caused by stings from the coral? If so, will the clown become immune to it after a while?

"by plants i mean corals. The tank is in no way overstocked" #1) corals are animals #2)you are overstocked

......you have too many fish, also

why would you want to add plants?

you can also easily make a trap out of a soda bottle- cheaper and just as effective. do a search for damsel removal.

GOT IT!!!! Used the bottle trap- thanks

Will do....thanks

Ok thanks for the advice. I was planning on running it for just a few days but I wasn't sure how frequently I should do it. Thanks again.

I have a 29 gal also which I started in Jan 05 with almost no knowledge of saltwater/reef. Have done a TON of research since then and after 6 months I feel I'm off to a great start. My only regret is I wish I would have gone bigger so i could keep more animals...

I made the mistake of adding a yellow tail to my tank and he won't leave my maroon clown alone. I can't even come close to catching him. Anyone have advice on how to get it out without taking out all of the LR?

My tank has been up for about 5 months now and I have yet to run carbon. How long should i leave it in my canister filter and when should I put more in after I take it out?

Yeah, I want him out of there......1 problem- how the heck do I get him out???? Any ideas? I really don't want to take out all of the LR. Any advice would be appreciated

No, I don't have an anenome (we don't really want one). I just got a hammer and bubble coral hoping that it will host one of those. I just noticed another chunk off one of the maroon's bottom fins

I have a 29 gal with a maroon clown, yellow watchman goby, and a yellow tail (I just added it last week). I know i probably shouldn't have added the damsel, but i always thought they were cool looking. Anyway, he won't leave my clown alone and I have been noticing a couple of nips in his fins...
