Here is my aquascape,it is just a 12 gal though. If you look through threads that have pics, it should give you some ideas.

I would look into purchase of a 1200 maxi jet as a pump. I would not silicone the rocks together..if you want to reaquascape or should need to remove something in the future such as a troublesome fish, this may make it impossible. Just stack the rocks so there are caves and the water can flow...

Purchase a refractometer to test specific gravity, it should be 1.025 and kept stable by water changes and topping off with fresh water daily. The water evaporates, but salt remains. Use only RO/DI {reverse osmosis de-ionized} water and a good marine salt mix. Water changes should be done...

Congrats! What are your plans for it? Will you be swapping out the pump..{ I recommend that you do} Good luck, go slow..

Live feeders is better than nothing for a start, just to get it to eat. It needs to eat something, and the stress of capture and moving the fish around causes it not to eat for sometimes weeks. Then you will need a feeding stick to train him onto frozen or fresh from the grocer food. Place the...

Yes.

You don't need the suction cups for the heater. I use a 44 gal brute{it is food grade, so safe for your tank}submersible heater and just toss it in with a MJ powerhead for a day at least..sometimes two. IO is notorious for leaving residue.

No big deal..I answered you in your other thread.

One of the groupers may eventually eat the clown. No a good idea . Besides, anemones need metal halide, T-5 or equivelant lighting. Most people do not keep proper lighting for corals or anemones over an aggressive tank. To answer your question about the starfish in the other thread, how did you...

1. Intermatic 2. I think you would do best to have someone come in every few days and look after your tank, top it off, make sure everything is still working properly, etc. Check at your LFS, they may have someone willing to do it for a nominal fee. They do not make a good auto feeder IMO, and...

Wet down newspaper with the SW that you have and place it over it, then cover that with a couple damp towels.

We will need alot of details before we can help. What size tank, how long set up, is it cycled, what type of water are you using, what are you using to test specific gravity, and what are all of your parameters, including PH, temp, no3,po4? Who told you to add copper, and did you put the copper...

When ocean water is used it is taken from a far distance & depth. Think of the beach as the ocean's skimmer...all the pollution winds up there.

Ricordia yuma.

What type of nudibranch do you have? Most all nudibranchs die of starvation unfortunately, and do not do well in the high flow/overflow environment of a tank.

Do you mean the central disc? That is where it's organs are, where it's food goes..so yes it is somewhat soft unless full. Have you been spot feeding him? So you know...green brittle stars are predators and are capable of catching your fish.

You can get regular latex gloves like from the drug store The drawback to them is the water gets in them and when you remove your arm from the tank the water will run down it. Or there are actually coral gloves made by Coralife...they are a garish purple & orange color and cover your whole arm...

Mushrooms cannot be glued if they are free floating, they will slime up & float away. Zoanthids can & yes they do posess palytoxin.You can google it...one of the most toxic substances. Palythoas have more than ordinary zoanthids. Some people are more sensitive than others...coral toxins tear me...
