I to have rics. I sometimes will drop a pellet on them but for the most part the lights are their main thing. If you want to feed them place a shrimp pellet in the middle and they should fold up. But feeding is not necessary. Good water quality, good lighting = Happy Rics......

sorry its not a new tank, everything from rock, sand, water is all from the 3 gal tank. I will give them a mix of frozen and pellets.

Thanks Nissan, its pretty bare right now and very unhappy too but in a few days things will be better. I would love to get two rocks for these zoas to be put on, will wait till i get back and find the right size or rock and then i think i will glue the plugs they are on to the rock and let them...

I have some concerns about the critters in my tank. It a 5 gal with corals and inverts only. I have: 1 pom pom crab 1 porcelain crab 2 sexy shrimp 1 hermit crab 1 algae eating cowrie 1 nasarissus snail What can I give these guys so they don't starve in this tank?? I had a cleaner shrimp but he...

I am definately getting them but will have to wait till i get back from holidays. So in the meantime my little 9" is doing the trick. I want to be home when I order them. Hey what do you think of my new zoa frags?? Green ones are Lemony Snickets but I don't know what the other ones are. I got...

Thanks for all the info Nissan greatly appreciated

Well I think I am going to go with that fixture. I think it will look great ove the tank, there will be 1" on either side so that should not look to bad. Say what did you have to pay for it? The only thing that many are saying is that they are not HO bulbs.Does it say anywhere on the box they...

My apology Nissan, I went to the site to find out about these t-5's and found out the slimpaq lights are indeed HO lights. I think this is what I am going to go with now, my mind is made up. I like that they have the built in legs that slide to fit the tank as well. The top of my tank is 16"...

okay what i have heard is that, if i were to get this 18" t-5 it is not better than the coralife pc 12" both 36 watts too. Because the t-5 are not the HO ones so they are considered equal to the PC fixture. Is this true?? Do you have the HO t-5 fixture Nissan?? Then I read the LED will not give...

Yes I just don't know what to do for a new fixture. I just bought a new 5.5 gal tank so I can move everthing from my 3 gal over. My rics are getting way to big and everything is cramped so this will be better. No I will not be going bigger after this..... I would love those LED lights but unsure...

We don't have that lamp here in Canada

okay this is what i have come up with they are by marineland and are : Double Bright LED Lighting System 18-24" 6x1 watt white 3x 60mw blue (450)lumens Now would these be better than: 1. coralife 36 watt 12" PC 2. Current USA Nova Extreme 18" 36 watt t-5 3. Current USA Nova Extreme 12" 18 watt...

okay i am really confused now, i have heard lots about these led lights. the place i usually order from has them on sale but don't think they are the size for my tank i will take a look. what is with these lights, educate me please. Canuck land yes Canuck fan no..... I live in the Okanagan...

Thank you, how wide is your tank across 12"?? Looks good just have to make my mind up which one for sure. Do you know if the 12" coralife one can use mounting legs like the way yours is sitting??

Can you post a full pic with this light so i can see how it sits on your tank?

Guess what, i found that light you have Nissan...... Price here is $99.00 i have to see how much the bulbs are though. But what is the top measurement of your tank?? if its 12" how are you going to place this 18"light on it??

Get the porcelain crab instead, he will be out and about so you can see him. The pom pom hides under a rock and does not come out till night when the lights are out. Not very interesting in my opinion but when I do see him he is very neat.

I put it on the side line for now, going to get some awesome zoas tomorrow from a guy here. I am quite excited as we don't get zoas like this here, only the common ones. I really love my ricordeas and zoas, now i just have to order this new light and as I replied to your suggestion about the...

Hey would love to do MH but they are way to expensive there plus I would be sleeping in the dog house if the husband knew that I payed $400.00 for this fixture which is lovely. As for the Nova Extreme we don't carry these here in Canada, bulbs would be another issue. Its much easier for me to...

Okay not going to work for me. They only make T5's in 24 " being the smallest. I need 12" so that will not work for the T5's so its back to PC's. My tank is a pico tank. I now have another question about mouting legs. If the top of the tank measures 12" and your light is 12" will mounting legs...
