I've got an out break!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Any ideas on how to get rid of it or control it? I've put an urchin and emerald in, any other suggestions???? Oh, bulbs are only a month old, water parameters are good, fish are healthy.

Actually, as with my other 150gal I used to own, I let the hair algae and other grow in one location to keep it off of the rocks, etc. Yes, I change my filter media, I have an intack media basket that holds my chemi pure, purigen and filter media. I have 40 sq ft of filter media, oh yeah and...

I have a loaded 29 gal biocube, I only use ro/di water. watch the angels if you want corals and fish. I have 7 fish and 12 corals. I do a 5gal water change twice a month, ro/di water only. Look at the intank media baskets, they are awesome. I leave a little green hair algae on the back wall, it...

oh yeah, a coral banded shrimp, 9 nerites and 11 hermits, cleanup is tomorrow.

Yo!!!! Now I have 1 clown, 3 blue/green chromis,1- 6 line wrasse, 1 firefish goby, and a solar wrasse annndddd all of my 12 corals in a 29 gal biocube!!! Water parameters are ok, w/c 5 gal twice a month, intank 3 tier system in the back.

Watch the brown crap floating on top, get more water movement. I had a massive algae bloom of thick, slimy, brown crap. My salinity was up, I brought it down to 1.025 and it went away. Are you using ro/di water for saltwater and topoffs? Don't trust the bottled drinking water from the rocery...

The angel may pick at your corals, you will need to keep it fed well. The yellow tang really needs to be in a 75 gal or larger. matter of fact so will the angel. Xenia will multiply quickly, easy to care for, if your angel doesnt get to it first. A green torch, zoas, candy canes, mushrooms...

Pack your tank full of corals!!!! JK! I have a 29g biocube, tried the full size corals, didn't work. You will want one of everything eventually. Go with frags if at all possible. Aquacultured xenia is very hardy, I am forever removing litlle sprouts here and there. I have xenia, green...

Give it a few more days. My wrasse took a few days to come out. Get a blue/green chromis, it will run everything around the tank, ready to play.

If you have anything in the house that goes "meow", it may have taken care of that fish if it jumped. Did you check your filter? How bout a floor vent? I had a snowflake eel in a 150 gal and he became a jumper. He jumped out and slithered his way into my ac/heat floor vent. That was the last eel...

PC bulbs, I believe that one head of the green torch may have seen its days. Im still waiting on a reply from coral life.

Same here, I had metal halides on my last tank. Now, I just like having a couple fish and corals. Less headache and less $$$. I have also sent an email to coral life, their suggestion will be the least amount of time to help sell their product. Like I said, everything is fine, no more brown...

Does anyone know the lifespan of coral life pc bulbs? I replaced them the begining of Aug 2010. everything still looks good, for now..........

He went back to the store today. I traded him for an army of hermit crabs, 15, and a few more snails.

Yes, he has begun to spit the sand in every nook and cranny!!!! I am watching him now, as I type. The owner of the LFS said that the goby would make it in my cube. I don't want to starve him to death. The LFS has a very good reputation and this fish was eating flake food, I saw it. I believe...

Does anyone have any issues with this Goby. I have one in my tank now andsomeone has told me that they will not survive AND will scatter sand all around the tank. On my corlas, live rock and unwanted places. Just asking.

Get the Koralia 1 for Nanos, awesome flow! It will not blow anything apart. Ive got two of them in my tank, nice movement.

Hey! Have any of you put a mini uv sterilizer in your tank? I had one in my previous 150 gal custom, but have not found anyone that has one on a nano? Do you think this may be a waste of money? I am seriously thinking bout starting a refugium in the back to help. Thanks for your input.

You might want to add a little Reef fusion #1 and #2 to help the hitch hikers make it. Look on Mediabaskets.com to see if they have the baskets for your tank. They are awesome! I have a 29GAL biocube and got a fish saver wall(prevents fish suicide) and the media basket for my tank. Good Luck!

Well, I still have some in my tank, looks like the phosguard may be helping. My snail is moving again, the sand doesn't have as much slime. It will take some time. I need another powerhead and was wondering about the koralia pumps. What size should I get? I have alot of xenia and some colt coral...
