Do I suck it up with the turkey baster, or like I've been doing,...blowing it off the sand and rock? Should I do like every other day water changes for a while? I've got a Nano powerhead and stock pump in there now. My flow is pretty good, as evidenced by the waving of my frogspawn and xenia...

My PC's and actinics are about 7 months old; lights are on about 8 hours a day; I feed them enough, that all there food is gone; I top off with RO/DI water temp runs about 72 degrees I'm using a oceanic protein skimmer with bioballs and a filtration pad LS & LR as my substrate

Anyone know how to get rid of Cyanobacteria? I've got an established take and it suddenly appeared. No change in lighting.

Hi guys! Anyone know what this red stuff is? Is it harmful? It comes off of the live rock with a light brushing... This is the same rock afterwards... Tank shot...

The clown is clear of any and everything!!! YAHHHHH!!!!! Thanks guys!

I agree with BTLDreef... per the pix in the other thread, it is VERY similar to brooklynella. It that contagious to our other fishies? Thanks!

Hello all,... Is anyone having the same problems as I am. I'm getting salt collection on the outside of my biocube. (see pic) Is this normal? Can I prevent it? Thanks!!

I'm waiting for some Par38 LED's to come into my LFS. They'll last forever, give great lighting and no heat at all. I can't wait!

I think you should put a picture of your boyfriend in the tank and decorate it, in the most elaborate way possible! Have some beautiful lighting to bring out his gorgeous features. I'm just saying....

I'm trying to build me a sump/fuge and am coming out empty. My issue.... I went to Home Depot today to look for acrylic. I found a 32"X32" sheet of plexiglass for $49.00. I thought VERY pricey and flimsy. Anyone have any ideas as to where I might be able to buy acrylic in the Knoxville, TN...

That thread is ridiculously long.... Is there a thread out there with directions on how to build a refuge thats less that 20" long?

Hi guys! Has anyone ever built there own refugium? I measured the inside of my stand and its just under 20inches wide. I cant squeeze in a 10gallon in there!!! ARGH!!! So,....has anyone ever made their own fuge? With what material? Is there blue print anywhere? Pics will be GREAT! Thanks!!!

I don't think its coraline, because I can brush it off with some firm sweeps of my toothbrush. I've got emerald crabs, turbos, cerinths, and nassarius snails. What else could/should eat this?

can anyone tell me what kind of algae this is? And what eats it? Thanks!!

cerinths, turbos, nassarius...

is that a bad or good thing?
