I have an 80 bowfront that I have been converting to reef. I have decided that before I get any further into it I would rather start over and do it right. The 80 has no overflow, no skimmer, no place for a fuge or sump and I put it about 2" from the wall like a dork so no overhang chances. It...

Can't find any other name for it. This site lists it as a blue damsel. (pic on this site is flashed bright) Same color blue as the kind with the yellow tail, just a blue fish a little black line through the eye he's probably 2" maybe 3"

That's a great question. I guess I just thought they do better in groups and would maybe mess with each other rather than the other fish. You're saying (reading between the line ) if I keep him keep him solo?

Ok my tank has been set up for 8 or 9 months now and I am looking to add fish. My blue damsel (Dave) made it through the cycle and has had the tank to himself for all that time, or atleast until I added the clean up crew a few weeks ago. After reading many posts on this site I have come to the...

Thanks I will

I bought 4 littlenecks last night and put them in. Two have buried themselves and seem fine the other two remain on the top of the sand closed. Should I assume their dead?

Installing a couple of powerheads tonight to add flow to my young reef tank. I have been told to aim them at each other to create turbulence. I was thinking on putting them on the back top at either end and aim them towards the middle top front. Please let me know what would be best. 48" tank 80...

Thanks for the replies. I'm not sure where I would put a sump. Am I to understand a sump with a skimmer in it would eliminate my canister filter? How big should the sump be? How does the water travel back and forth and what "filters" it on the way back to the display?

My guy has been doing the water changes about once per month. I would say about a quarter, maybe 20 gallons. So does that KH # he wrote make no sense or is it way off?
