hahahaha thats funny maybe ten are missing on each colony? lol wait it out I will ;) much grateful I am too

well the water is top notch, 8.2ph, 0 nitrites, and super low nitrates. 445 Ca I do have an alternate theory now, I notice a brittle star sweeping near them alot, as well not all the zoos are slowly leaving, other colonies are thriving, it's just two or three of them... perhaps a very hungry...

Given the following what would you say would be eating a nice colony of zoos? decorator crab a pair of skunk cleaner shrimp a huge anthropod population a cleaner wrasse No one else seems to be interested in them, but after enough observation I've narrowed it down to these guys. If you've got...

well I had a bit of a episode yesterday, refer to other post, but everything is still holding at normal now. I have this GORGEOUS Reef with nothing but some shrimp and a pair of clowns! I bet all the inverts are singing "ding dong the witch is dead" around the campfire! Crazy crazy either way. I...

Alright, I'll tell you my story and then hopefully you can fill me in on the gaps lol I woke up this morning ready to really do a number on my reef tank. I have a 65 gallon show tank, 10 gallon fuge and while it isnt hooked up yet a 20 gallon for a sump. I took out all my coral from the 65 and...

Had the UV running for the day and already water quality is improved. Bah too those who think five watts is nothing! Getting a nicer DRY foam out of the skimmer too!

Hey all, Just bought a protein skimmer I plan on setting up in my sump (20 gal long). It has a plug n play bio chamber that can either accomodate bio balls (not included) or a 5 watt UV sterilizer (included). Now in my travels I've been told that UV will harm coral, but I'm also hearing that 5...

Thanks for the input! Its such a nice thing not to waste money and find this stuff out later :) Any Favia Brain advice out there?

I have the 36" model and I love it! my white sebae anenome hates the moonlights though! might have to replace him with something a little less light sensitive (he's such a gorgeous iceberg white though!) Other than that, the growth I've experienced in the month I've had it is exceptional as...

Hey all, a friend dropped off a somewhat injured flavia brain since he doesnt' have a QT, it looks like part of it has died off and turned dark though so it's definately got something wrong with it. I have no experience here so any input would be appreciated! I do have my own reef, just hoping...

I also agree that the Yellow Watchman Goby is the way to go, just look at my little guy! How can you not say no to that face? lol -GG

Good Question, I'll go google that.

Anyone aware of any canadian online order sites, or sites that will deliver to canada? If not, does anyone know of any decent stores in the toronto area? I dont want to know about a chain store either ;) I wonder if I'm the only Canadian here...:P -GG

yikes thanks man, the LFS I got him at had him on a LR ledge halfway up the tank! down in the sand he goes!

Ok Ok OK Try and bite back all those punch lines people ;) Just got a Metallic Green Open Brain today, where should I stick him? 192w PC's in a 65 gal btw. Sand? Close to the lights?

and lights! MH's VHO's HO's or PC's (IMO lol) 3watts per gallon at least, 5-7 for more ligh intensive things.... that's the short stick though, anyone want to explain why?

I will post some pics in the future, I just couldn't believe how little he was! About the weight factor: I put three of the suckers next to an "equivalent" (IMO) amount of LR and then weighed em both. You'd be surprised at how litle the difference really is. The Hermits LOVE the brick btw, and...

Bricks are there because they showcase coral well and can hopefully pickup some microbacteria... heck... live brick anyone? ;)

The Tank

Hey all, meet me me and my TINY new Yellow Watchman Goby! I've attached two pics so you can get a perspective on just how little he is in my 65 Gallon lol Also gives you a chance to see what I've done since I started just after Xmas. So hey everybody please let me know what you think :) -GG
