How long have you maintained those corals. The anemone doesnt really sound like it would be a problem either, unless it is a condolactus, because they grow very large in short periods of time.

That is actually a really cool layout. I cant quite makeout what that egg looking thing at the bottom is though. What does is it?

Really, Hows the variety of corals you can keep in it.

What is the lighting difference between the Nanocube and the Biocube?

Hello, I just sold my 55g reef aquarium I have had for 2 years because of a move and space issues at the new place. I love the hobby and dont want to stop so I am definately going to buy a nano tank, I just dont know wether or not to get a nanocube; Aquapod; or a Biocube. I have $300 to spend on...

Originally Posted by NanoMantis Also once a year Xenia seems to go through a massive die-off. It is a normal part of it's life cycle and does the same in the wild. If this is what you are experiencing there is just about nothing you can do to prevent it, however most of the xenia will regrow...

Originally Posted by WangoTango Check your test kit, I have a hard time believing your nitrates are that high. -Justin I know, I thought the same thing so I went and bought a different brand kit. It read that the Nitrates were a bit above 80ppm, so it was partly the kit that was wrong.

I used the same super glue for all of my gorgonians. It works quite well.

Hello, I have a 55g reef tank and am unable to lower the Nitrates which are at 180ppm. I have had this tank for 1 1/2 years and the Nitrates were like that from the jump cause it is in my Tap water. I have had no problems but in the last month or so my corals have begun to die and are having...

I have xenias in my 55g tank that are turning white and dying. My water parameters are all ok except the Nitrates which are at 180ppm but have been like that for about a year and a half. I have tryed everything from water changes to putting De-Nitrate in my Fluval. Anyone, Help?

I brush it off weekly and it constantly is regrowing the algae.

I have another Yellow Gorgonian and it is flourising. I am feeding zooplankton daily and I put the red Gorgonian in a high water flow area of my tank.
