    How Many Hours Of Lighting?

    Is it two bulbs? How many plugs? I have a coralife light with two plugs. I turn the blue light on for 11 hours and the white light for 9 hours. So they dual run for nine hours and then the blue's simulate dawn and dusk. I wouldn't run both of them for longer than 10 hours a day. As far as...

    I hate stupid ignorant ASSININE people (Electric company)

    Interesting they would turn your lights out so quick. Don't you at least have an extra month to pay the previous bill with late penalty and such? It makes no sense and sounds like a computer glitch they had. Go to the top of their food chain and try and get results. The grunts can't do crap...

    Greenstar Polyps

    Use superglue gel. Its a little easier to use. My experience with glueing down star polyps is the original colony usually disintegrated. Thank fully it spread and attatched on its own. I have seen them come off the glue as well. I don't know if thats slime or i just didn't set them properly...

    ID Please..

    Sorry should have said some are photosynthetic. I knew that :) The can detatch from their surface and drift about. I guess they can wiggle and try and direct their swimming but i don't think its very effective thus why they need low flow conditions.

    need info on angles

    Ill agree with that. Here's what you have to do if you try it. Get one thats as different in color as possible. If you can try and get it from a different sea as well. Usually flames are Hawaiian. Once you get the fish change up the rock work first before adding him. If you do that you...

    ID Please..

    Its a flatworm. They are not harmfull to anything. They are photosynthetic and each algae. BUT if you have corals they like to collect on their shells like the lps and soft corals. They will reproduce prolifically in bright light AND low current areas. I would not worry about him unless you...

    branching porites Placement?

    You may want to start it a little lower. Bear in mind the light from where you are buying it from. 2 or 3 vhos at the lfs can't compete with a metal halide and whatever else you have running. Wish mine were yellow :(

    purple lobster

    I've heard they get to be a foot long at least. They will hide constantly so if you have a large tank i wouldn't bother. You won't see him much. As far as reef safe i don't think they mess with corals but maybe weak or sleeping fish. I guess treat them like a coral banded shrimp, but one...

    Blue lion

    Midnight blue? I think its the same thing, blue/black volitan.... I haven't seen to many blacks though but thats what they look like.

    Blue lion

    AHHH a black volitan. They come in dark dark colors like that. But usually a black volitan is only partially black. If what you saw was a deep blue all over then he's a rare color.... I think ;)

    Live Rock Cycle

    Ill concur with Elan with a different condition. Keep the skimmer on but so that it does not actually skim but does move water. It will help move the waste around evenly, like a power head. This will ultimately ensure waste doesn't stick in one spot. As far as will you have spikes. No you...

    so happy with my new fish

    Adding five fish at one time always has its problems. You really should have gone 2 at the most at one time. You may see a spike in your ammonia due to the added waste generated by these fish. Just test daily for a while to make sure. Also make sure you don't over feed all the new guys...

    Out Of Royal Grammas

    I have no idea when they might get them but i would think soon enough. The fish you mentioned are staples in any LFS. Especially the grammas.

    do they have wet dry filters hat hang on the back

    Punctuation does help :) Is there a problem with your filtration? I'm confused what you are asking. Your title was is there hang on the back wet/dry but a wet/dry is essentially your emperor 400. Is there a hang on the back fuge/sump style. Yes. An Ecosystem 40 is one, but i don't know...

    striplight

    30' for flourescents is 24 inch. Which really sucks because it doesn't cover your tank very well.

    OT: Steak (Kill shots)

    Oh and you need a bigger tank so you can mount the deer heads on the tank canopy.... :)
