    starting a reef

    I agree with the above. Start slowly and if you stay with softies, mushrooms, and LPS you have plenty enough light. But be prepared to upgrade because once you get a taste you'll want SPS and clams too. I would also add some more water flow.

    mandarin died

    Do you have many other very active fish in your tank or not enough places to hide? Mandarins can be very shy and can get stressed out easily with too much activity around. It's kind of like you feel after spending the day with a bunch of two year olds.

    Clown and Condy

    I agree with the above. I believe it is very rare to have a condy host a clown in an aquarium. So if you're looking for a host anemone they are not the best choice.HTH

    Need advice on sump versus cannister

    I would use the sump instead of the canister but you could always use the canister on the sump if you wanted to have it for running carbon or water polishing etc. As stated, a sump gives you a good place to put ugly stuff like heaters rather than in the display as well as a safer place for...

    OT Recent debates over SUVs

    There are reasons for SUV's other than going off-roading. I have an infant and I am a fairly big guy and loading him into the car seat of my wife's car is torture. Also, you can say what you want about safety, but I like being higher up than cars around me so I can see what's going on ahead of...

    OT Recent debates over SUVs

    I drive an SUV too and as soon as I pay off my wife's Passat I['m getting another one. The liberals who complain about our oil use supporting terrorist countries are the same ones who stop us from drilling here in the US and keeping our money in our own hands and giving millions of people jobs...

    Coral Traits after water change.

    I second you Sammy on the guess that it's in our heads. It just like when my car seems to run so much better after I wash it or that I enjoy my wife more after she takes a bath....oh wait maybe that one is not just in my head:D

    OT:Weird!!!

    My favorite on Goodfellas is when Johnny(I think) two time says "I'm gonna go get the papers, get the papers". It cracks me up every time. BTW did you know that Spider ,the waiterwho gets shot by Joe Pesci in the bar, is Christopher from the Sopranos?

    Too many tangs?

    3rd - everyone has to remember that when someone asks a question then they are soliciting opinions which they may or may not agree with. You can do with these opinions whatever you want but don't attack someone because the opinion you asked for didn't turn out to be the opinion you hoped for;)

    what causes this???

    I have the same thing and as was stated it is just what gets through even after the filtering. I just scrape the glass every two days and it hasn't become a big problem. But like Bang Guy said if they provide a food source for some of my livestock then it's not entirely bad.
