I've read that Strontium and Iodine are essential for proper growth. Also, do you do any supplemental feeding in your tank, e.g., like Cyclop-eeze?

Could be RTN. Also, check your dKH and PH levels. I know I lost a few SPS frags to bleaching because my dKH levels dropped too low.

From a local reefer: "L. wurdemanni, e.g., are the true peppermint shrimp. They love rock anemones. Most of the time what you get are from Florida and they are L. rathbunae. The reason you see these is because they use lobster traps to catch these things, so they can catch 100's of them for...

Sea Hares are the jam in my jelly roll. Put one in 2 hours ago and he's already going to town on the GHA!

A canister filter won't cause a tank crash. Do you have any live rock in your system? It's vital to saltwater tanks.

I'm getting the G5 for my 200g+ upgrade next year. I have a G3 on my 75g reef (stocked on the heavy side) right now and absolutely love it. The skimmate that collects on the neck is the consistency of thick oatmeal. With this skimmer and weekly water changes, my nitrate/phosphate levels are...

Just picked this baby up from a local reefer. Got a great deal....

That's a hammer. Frogspawn has multiple tips per tentacle.

SWF will replace the fish (cost), but you're out the shipping charges.
