Ok,I bought a prizm skimmer last saturday,we have a 55 gal. and all tests are at O except nitrate which is finally at 20ppms. My problem is my cup has more water than scum in it. I have the valve on low to almost closed,but the past 2 days the water in it is slightly yellow with just a very...

? FWIW ? Thanx for the reply. I didnt mean that the cc star did anything wrong, we had planned on trading him but just not so soon.

Ok, got another piece of lr on saturday. And it had a small piece of mushroom on it. (notice the word HAD!) Came home from shopping last night and the cc star was on the shroom,and now its gone.I think he just got on it before we came home cuz it looks like there is a small piece of it left.My...

Anyone?

:happy: Well, went and bought us a new protein skimmer and lights for our tank. The lights are coralife deluxe series dbl linear strips w/fans. 4- 65 watt bulbs. Then the skimmer is (i know!) a red sea prizm deluxe model. So far, I am real happy with both. My ? is, the guy at the lps said to...

P.S I will definately keep you in mind about the shrooms! Thanx alot!

As a matter of fact, I did. Im having a real hard time without him.He left me on mothers day and now i look in my tank and see nothing swimming.But I know that once everything gets under control, it would have been worth it. The rock there is very nice and the 1st tank when u walk in is what we...

Thanx alot.I know, that is one of my concerns.We have had the live rock (well, one of the pieces) for about a month and the star has only been on it once for about 20 minutes. so as i said, fingers crossed. Actually the picture is the 1st time he was on it.

The tank is 3 years old and the star fish has been in there for about 8 months.We had a naso tang in there but we recently traded him. He does get spot feed so i dont think he will die. He's done great so far. (fingers crossed) If worse comes to worse we will find a new home for him.

Thanx claw! You didnt have an opinion on the cc starfish.Is that because its not good for the lr? I do have an extra pump.I have a 20 gal. bucket that i use for the water,any clue to how to cover it? we have 3 cats. My thought is plastic wrap of some sort.

Thanx guys! I got alot of reading and learning to do.This lr is all new to me. Now,. will the cc star or hermit crab hurt it? Cchip doesnt seem interested in it yet but the hermit is all over it! Also this may sound naive but what do most people do if they make up too much water for water...

Hey Kojak Im in Laconia. Where abouts are you?

Not to be rude and interupt......... but bump! thanx!

Hey toddpolish,about a year ago you offered to come rescue my naso tang here in Laconia. Im wondering if you are still interested in her.There is nothing at all wrong with her but we are downsizing to a 55 gal. and she wont do well in it.I really dont want to trade her in at the pet store here...

Yes! I got our tank from an old neighbor and it had cc in it. When I 1st came to this site I decided to switch to live sand and that is what my lps had.I have had no problem with it and I like it.

You could also run a disk clean up and delete all your temporary internet files.Usually you can see all the files and check the ones you want to delete.Or do as I do and delete them all.I also purchased Internet Cleanup that covers your tracks and helps with the pop ups.Id you check out...
