cool looking tank man. Your xenia colony is huge!

I'm going to need to check on of my books. I think I remember reading somewhere that most types of straight lava rock can make bad base rock due to some sort of leaching issue. I'll get back to ya

From what I've sen monti's will either encrust (aka form to the rock, or extend out, I have no idea what determines their behavior though) But if they extend they tend to "scroll from what I've observed. Mine eats ALL of my calicium, its absolutley ridculous, my calcium can go from 450 to 380 in...

hmmm in a 12 gallon. You can't have too much, maybe a couple of firefish. Or one clown and a six line..... You could always mix it up with several different shrimps or ornamental crabs. Such as several sexy shrimp and pom pom crabs.....

most residential floors are designed for 50 psf uniformly spread over the entire floor. So since you don't have fish tanks everywhere in your condo. You are probably fine. However if you happened to get your 18" by 72" tank to land on only one joist, that could be a serious issue. (and since...

There's dangers in all tanks. But yes, be cautious with them, if you have your feeder lid open for tank temp purposes make sure to have egg crate there too.

Goby's jump, I had my diamond goby jump into the sump he wasn't as unlucky as yours. You can try to add a piece of plexiglass between the top of the sump and the bottom of the lid(about 1/4-1/2") Or put a piece of egg crate (white plastic light mesh) over the water surface

Thanks man ahhh thats terrible! They are awesome though, mine started with one head, in May, now its got 4!

cool! I've tried two flames in my time, never managed to make them work. I attributed one of them to tank temperature issues (when everyone died due to my idiot fish watcher) and the other one to inadequate diet on my part so make sure to mix it up!

yeah no kidding! Alright update: Look ma no more hair algae! They came out to say whats up! Some of my fancy zoas have starting expanding some more

sweet tank, I love the rose anemone. Very nice looking angel :) What are you feeding him?

oh yeah and change 2 gallons a week if you can, until your problem is under control. A minimum of 10% is good when your tank is healthy, up to 25% is acceptable if your having algae issues One more thing, if your lights are over 8 months old you could change those too, and trade out chemipure or...

I was under the impression that bristle worms are relatively flat. This guys is more round. Any other opinions?

cowrie snail, thats exactly what I was thinking. I've seen these in southern california diving. Are they a normal aquarium snail? They're really cool!
