Well, I got my first CUC last night!!! They are so awesome!! I have one emerald crab (wow, talk about hungry.....he cleaned an entire rock in two hours, and he is funny as hell! He would stop while he was eating to scratch his little hairy legs...lol) 3 tricolor hermits (very cute) and 3 astrea...

Looks very nice.....:)

So, would a little blue urchin be okay with corals as long as I gave it algae sheets to eat? Will it eat other invertebrates? And my other question is how in the heck do you get in into the tank with all those little pokey things?? What is a good acclimation for them.....drip? And for how long?

Oh the other thing I was going to get was a mouse cowrie.....anything special I should know about them or are they just basially a snail??

Is there any urchin out there that is safe with corals?? and what do they normally eat? Do you have to feed them and if so, what do you feed them?

i really like the rock work...you could always do more toward the top on one side if you wanted to but it's beautiful though........lets see some more pics!!!

gotcha....my line of thinking was that I didn't want to add too many too fast and have them starve. Little at a time and all that. I actually am gonna order some pods first and let them start to reproduce in the tank....

Sorry...I actually have a tank build thread on the nano site but here goes.... set it up on the 14th of feb, then added live rock that day. i prolly have about 20 pounds....it is a 29 gallon rectangle. I am gonna get about 10 more pounds but all the rock has been already cycled at my LFS and I...

i thought the teddy bear conch were supposed to really love the hair algae??

I got the test kit on the 19th of feb and have checked it everyday since then. The tank started cycling on the 14th....my valentine's day tank lol........ There has never been any change at all.....kind of unlikely that it cycled in 5 days, especially since I added LR after that too. It was all...

It does say here on SWF.com that they will not ship this to CA as well as a couple other states, if you look it up.....maybe they have some sort of problem with it growing out of control if it were to get into open sea or something??

Awesome!!! Looks great!! I am starting to wonder about a cycle myself to be honest......my tank has been up and running for over a week and there hasn't been any changes to the ammonia, nitrite, or nitrate........I have even been ghost feeding to get some bacterial changes but who know?? Plenty...

If you haven't done anything but top off, it sounds like the ammonia and nitrates could actually be affecting him. I would try and do more water changes over the next couple weeks and see if that helps. Not necessarily more water but more often, like 10% every three days or something like that...

Whoooot!!! page 2...

yah I agree on the rock for sure......there is a lfs which is supposed to have some awesome LR with coraline and some corals already attached for 7.99 so I am going to go check it out.....I am also going to get some pods to put into the tank to get them populating. I am starting to wonder...

Any opinions on the lighting and the anemone?

Looks very nice!!

Just be aware that they get enormous. My LFS had one in a 500 gallon. It could have taken your whole finger off. It will outgrow the 75 very soon.

i love how the midas blenny is peeking out of the rock!!! That is absolutely adorable...lol....
