Originally Posted by Tclark828 I've never heard of doing this before. I am in the process of starting a new tank, so could someone tell me more about this, and where to get it? You can find it at homedepot or lowes in the lighting section. Ask for it. But call it light diffuser or they will...

Looks good. But mag return pumps are very loud, take up alot of electricity, and just not very good pumps IMO. I would go with a eheim 1262 or ocean runner 3500. And I would put a T before the scwd that goes back to the sump with a ball valve so you can turn back the amount of water going into...

Originally Posted by Bang Guy It looks to me like a scratch from rock. Is there anything on the opposite side like if it wedged itself in the rock? There is NO spots anywhere else. The spot does have some texture but its hard to tell what it looks like exactly. I guess I am just going to have...

Originally Posted by sepulatian It is not sticking out at all? What does he eat? What are the water readings? It is not sticking out at all. Almost stringy but super short strings. It almost looks like he could have scratched himself. I added him with a tomini at the same time but thats it. He...

Originally Posted by sepulatian Is it clumping out like a cauliflower growth? Take a look at Beth's Diseased Fish FAQ. Look at the pictures of lymphocystis. That is not it. It is not a growth really. And its not just a white dot. It is kinda like powdery?

He is in QT with a tomin tang right now. They have been in there for almost a month. I just noticed this today. Its the white spot on his side.

Originally Posted by NEreef it seemed that you meant there was only one place in CA to find fish wholesale. there are a few in that state as well as others in other states, especially FL. Oh, I meant whole salers are pretty mcuh the only place to get livestock other then going straight to the...

Originally Posted by lion_crazz Very untrue.. So where else is there to get livestock for fish stores other then whole salers? Some times you can buy direct from the source but alot of times it is illegal and very risky if you are going to get healthy animals

Not much new. Powder brown and tomini tang are still in QT doing great. I think I will move them over this weekend. Here are some updated pix. It seems so much harder to get good pictures then it was in my 75g that had VHOs.

Like stated above saltwater and water are different. And I doubt that light will be suitable for growing macro algae.

I would grab some kent super dkh to raise your dkh to around 8-12. When you raise that it will lower your calcium (cause it is a little high right now) and then use a two part solution (like b-ionic, two little fishies, ect, ect) to maintain calcium and dkh. I have tried almost ever two part out...

Macro lense Blackberry storm Sounds easy enough, right?

I got bored so I made the 180 jump proof I am going to do the same with my QT. I might try another set of wrasses later on.

Originally Posted by patrick8929 thats no good man sorry to hear that!!! are you gunna make the holes even smaller? Well I do not plan on getting any more wrasses and I do not think I will be getting anymore fish other then maybe a blue hippo tang. So I do not think I need to mess with them. I...
