    New Green Carpet from SWF

    Weird....as soon as I turn on my MH lights, my carpet runs for cover. He is very content with just 4X65 PCs over him. Should I just run the PCs on that side of the tank for awhile? Or should I run the MHs and "force" him to get use to them. I currently don't have any corals on that 1/2 of...

    Retrun to SWF.com this week

    What do you guys think their policy is? I received a fish that died the night of receipt (think it died of shock over night...weird though as the fish looked great, I acclimated over 2 hours, was put into cycled QT tank with no issues... never breathing hard...wake up next morning and dead)...

    New clown acting funny

    Clowns are known to sleep in the sand if the lights are off. If he is lying in the sand with the lights on, I would just watch him. Did you acclimate him properly? Dripping is always a good idea (click on Acclimation if you are unsure how to do this).

    Is the Carpet In Trouble?

    Another note is I fed it a shrimp yesterday....it was a pretty decent size (ones you buy from the grocery store for salads). He was bubbling up really tightly in the center and his mouth was sticking out some. Maybe he was pushing out his waste and how he is relaxing? I just turned out the MHs...

    New Green Carpet from SWF

    he opens up real big when the MHs are on and forms a more mushroom shape when the MHs are off...pretty cool how quickly he adjusts to changes in the light.

    Thumbs up to AquaC

    I'd just like to recommend the AquaC company to this site. I have two of their products and they both work very well. I recently managed to break one of the skimmers while maintaining it due to my own lack of mechanical skills (aka can't use a screwdriver right lol...). I ruined the body of...

    Overflow Size Question

    I only have 4.25 inches to work with in the back of my tank. Is there any overflow avaliable that would work for a 90 gallon. This would only be used to run to a Sump. Thanks, Matt

I'm thinking now is a good of a time as any to reconsider a Sump. I have a 90 gallon Tank with All-Glass Stand and custom canopy. I have limited space so any Sump...

    Protein Skimmer

    I have a HOB RemoraC Pro skimmer. I recently was treating my tank for a disease so I turned the skimmer off. Now that the skimmer is back on, its sucking all the garbage out of my tank but it isn't making it into the collection cup. Instead, its spewing it back out onto the top of my tank...

    Meaty Food that Sinks!

    I have a Scorpion Blenny that hides out all the time. I use to feed him krill on a stick but he doesn't want to take it anymore. When I put mysis or brine shrimp in, he normally doesn't get much of it at all. I've tried Ocean Plankton but it doesn't sink... What should I try feeding this guy...

    Emerald Crab

    I purchased 6 emeralds from this site. I've had them for 3 months. Two of them stayed green, 4 of them turned whiteish. One of the green ones is a monster, the other green one grew a little, and the white ones haven't grown much. I'm not really sure why some are white and the others are...
