I have my PH pointed so it hits the surface and I dont have an overflow....no film either Dan

Thanks Broomer, I decided against the pumps due to the fact they are 1 year old and have spent most of this time in high concentrations of chlorine. I did some looking into them and I would also have had to scrape debris and suck off of thier metal gratings in order to provide continuous use...

oon, Welcome to the BB. Personally I wouldn't trust any paint in the tank, even if it says that it is safe for marine aquariums. If you have a home depot or some other hardware store near you, you might be able to find colored acrylic panneling that you can cut to your specific needs. Just my...

I use the chem. once every 2 months as prevention, I do like the fact that I can use something other than an expencive chemical as a preventative. So I'll be trying this alternative today. Dan

Before adding new fish into my 25, I had about 6 Mexican Turbo Snails in my tank, I actually watched as 1 decided he prefered to run arround butt neked. While on the rock one day, he ditched his shell and went inside a small hole, About 6 hours later I noticed that he picked his shell up again...

Did you aclimate him properly? And what are your water readings? Dan

Jbax, Depending on what your lip is made of, there are a few ways to rig them up. If youy have a plastic lip you can cut the lip so your powerhead will stay. If its not plastic or youy dont want to cut anything, you might try taking some plastic strips and placing them in such a way that they...

The attinic I have is a coralife attinic, I'm not worried about the blue in this one because its so deep blue my tank is almost Black. Should I go with a 50/50 attinic or do they sell smartlights for a regular FLO ballast? Dan

Matt, I just moved my zoanthids into a 5gal. micro reef set-up. I have these under a regular FLO bulb, and they are doing great. Now when you place them, make sure that you have a spot picked out, because they will conform to where you place it. I had mine twisting and turning on my larger rock...

$10 a piece for cleaner shrimp?.....Man am I glad I don't buy from you. I get mine for about $3.99 each.

I dont use suction cups. I use a fairly heavy rock that I attach food to. This piece of rock, I attached a string to so I could put it in and out of the tank with ease and I dont even get a finger wet. Dan

On my 30gal. I have a single ballast. The problem I'm having here is the bulbs that I am have are crap. I have 2 right now that I switch back and forth,a 10,000k and an attinic, witch is a pain in the rear. What bulb would be perfect for this job? Until I build a new light-strip I'm looking to...

OK when you say "fresh Garlic" do you mean a clove or chopped with that juice (in a jar)?? I think I'd preferr this to adding chem. treatments every other month. Dan

I'm just asuming here that you must have been bored?

Hmmmm...sounds like you got a little Pirannah on your hands....lol Tomatos are picky, most will take to long tenticle anenomes, but depending on wether he was tank raised or not he may never take to any. My little guy won't go near one, but he does however enjoy a nice large chunk of LR. by the...

Sweet!...Looks like I got a way to go before getting anything that nice. Dan

got a clean up crew? Dan

your trigger is going to get large, if its basically color you want look into some corals. Dan

I also forgot to mention that anenomes need a dsb (deep sand bed) 3-4 inches Dan
