You need to flip it over. Be gentle when doing so. It looks like the foot is up in the air and the mouth is facing down. You need to see what kind of shape the mouth is in. If it is wide and gaping, it's on its way out. If the mouth is closed and tight, then it will probably live.

Update! My shipment arrived this morning! The coral beauty is in there, tiny little guy, he is hiding behind the rocks so you can't see him. I put my nem on the left side of the tank, the little devil moved a bit, and has settled that way for now. That way the clown will hang out on one side and...

He looks happy!

Since it is a closed hood system, I think you are going to need a chiller during the summer...unless you keep your house cold.

Tomorrow morning, my rare zoas and some other corals arrive and so does my coral beauty angel. In they go tomorrow and I will post pics that night when everything opens up. Then goes the anemone and clown the next week. Then, my new tank will be nearly finished! I may add a couple more nano fish...

20 high, 19 deep, 23 wide...including refugium.

They have an amazing green maze brain coral at my LFS and it is $500!!!

What is your most expensive livestock purchase to date? How much did you shell out for a single fish or a single coral? I have bought a $150 anemone...that is my most expensive livestock purchase to date!

Keep your lights off. It keeps nuissance algae from growing in there when you have no cuc to clean it up! I waited until the cycle was complete before doing a large water change.

I would call Oceanic or the store you bought it from to get a replacement before the warranty runs out.

Hey sorry! When I get home tonight, after LOST, I will measure it and post it for you. It looks square to me (the entire tank) but with the refugium in the back, the display tank is taller than deep. Quick update: My anem and clown are still in the other tank awaiting their new home but I want...

Yes! A 150 watt MH in a 24g will let you keep any type of coral you want! (provided you have good water condition, weekly water changes, even run a protein skimmer). You have over 6 watts per gallon...you should be able to keep whatever you want in there. I do however suggest that you move your...

Pictures as promised! I went ahead and added all my corals and just a few cuc as well as my cleaner and peppermint shrimp. I also went ahead and added my tiny goby in because he needed a little vaca from clown. Clown and anem are still in the other tank with most of my cuc.

My floss does not come apart no. I buy these pseudo compressed forms of floss that I then cut and roll up and stick in there. I do run a skimmer yes.

I agree. Bought a 14g and then upgraded 7 months later. I regret buying the biocube and now I have a 39 gallon CAD...especially when my 39 gallon was only a couple hundred more.

I always think my snails are trying to escape. My brittle star actually made it to the top of the aquarium, climbed on the powerhead, and chopped off one of his arms. I have no idea how he climbed glass but he did. Now I have a 4 legged star and a snake like star crawling around.

Alright, the miracle mud finally settled in the refugium and I am going to add clean up crew tomorrow morning. I should be transferring my two fishies over mid next week. I have everything the way I want it so I will take a pic tomorrow! I am extremely proud of my aqua-scaping if I do say so...

I use a form of floss yes. I replaced the stock sponge that is between the 2nd and 3rd chamber and I replace it with a new one every time I change out the chemipure and purigen which is every 2 months...well lemme show you a diagram I drew for you: That is for the biocubes mind you.

Best thing to do to get great answers on here is to post all your params first. Thinking your params are good and knowing are two different things!

I keep my chaeto light on 24/7. I imagine you can keep it on with the lights but if you keep it on 24/7...it will grow like crazy and you will have a chaeto farm!
