    in over my head with new elos 215 gallon setup

    Yeah, carpets are notorious fish eaters. They are also enormous but with that large of a tank you should be fine. You should be aware as well that they are one of the only ones that can cause a serious allergic reaction to humans as well. A friend of mine had one attack his forearm while he was...

    Goodbye everyone!

    I think that is a little pricey honestly. You could find one for less. Actually I don't have hardly any copepods. Mine is completely trained onto frozen. It is quite a process though and requires handfeeding him everyday until he is stuffed full. And it also means I have to have like 6 different...

    sound off

    I don't like them. I think it is adverse to your livestock as it is not as natural an environment as you can get with an aquarium. Also, it keeps you from keeping a number of critters that you would be able to with sand. There are some serious benefits if you don't like to clean or worry about...

    Oriental Sweetlips- misled purchase

    So sorry to hear that. They sure are pretty as young fish. I really wish LFS owner weren't just out to make a buck.....it's almost ridiculous some of the stuff I hear at stores.

    EVERYONE see this new law go into effect????

    Conservation efforts are so important....but this is going to raise prices a bunch on normal stuff that we buy all the time. All I'm, gonna say is this.....buy your ricordeas now......lol. Because soon anyone willing to frag them is gonna be rolling in the dough.

    90 Gallon Aggressive Build - Need Feedback

    I think your stocklist looks a lot better. I would still say go for a smaller lion but if your filtration is up to par and you are really set on a volitan, you might be able to squeeze him in. Keep in mind though that a volitan can easily get to 12 inches in diameter.....And....since he is that...

    Honest to god I almost spit soda through my nose reading this thread..... But I have an arguement with this logic..... if she were really cool she would never get upset about you looking at some other chick's booty She would agree with you 100%....and then let the girl know that she thinks she...

    90 Gallon Aggressive Build - Need Feedback

    Okay I am going to give some constructive criticism here. Please do not think I am flaming you, okay? When you come on here and ask people what they think of a particular stocklist and equipment and they find some problematic issues, it is kind of contrary to disagree because you wouldn't have...

    Which Triggers work well with Lions?

    I want to clarify your question in stating that nigers would work well with lions. I think that may be true when they are small but large ones are very aggressive and I think that may be a bad idea.

    You should top off your tank once a day. You don't want to have fluctuations in your salinity. Do you know where you should keep your levels at for salinity?

    in over my head with new elos 215 gallon setup

    Wait for everything to go up and then come back down. Nitrate should be at 0 before anything gets added. Have you decided what kind of tank you will have, FOWLR or reef? That will determine what kind of inverts (if any) that you will have. Those should prolly be first. Remember you don't need...
