Sounds good. For inspiration come to Raleigh and look at the LFS tanks :) I don't think corals add much to the bioload. Nothing your tank can't handle. I would suggest getting one or two corals at the most a week. As far as fish, same rule. No there is no rule as to how many corals in a...

Sounds good just make sure nothing flammable is within a couple inches of the bulb....

If blue damsels get settled in "their" tank then yes they will attack anything including your hand....

Its not a valid page. Looks like its just stored locally on your drive. YOu need to post it to a world wide address....

Yes, yes, and yes.... Thats plenty. No you may not have an ammonia spike. I would wait at least a week and if nothing shows up then you can try and add some hermits to start cleaning the rock. Even a damsel or two won't hurt anything if nothing shows up after a week. Keep in mind you may...

Um. Welcome to the board but i got some harsh news for you. Your 47 gallon tank is WAY overstocked. By my counts you have 11 fish in there? Not to mention two different kinds of clowns in such a small place is a NONO. Its very likely they are getting picked on and intimidated by the Clarkii...

Looks like a teddy bear crab but i don't think so. Teddy bears fur is more dense if i remember correctly. I would keep any eye on your invert population. If it doesn't go missing then i wouldn't worry about him to much. He looks tiny right now. No bigger than a quarter?

Looks like one of the giant elephant ear shrooms. Many kinds and colors....

Well. I don't know much about it. I wouldn't worry if its a little in the light. The book i have shows it underneath ledges or on a reef slope. I wouldn't place it up near the top but down on the bottom somewhere. Time will tell if it comes back. Provide it the right conditions and im sure...

Chironephthya,Dendronephthya, or Scleronephthya. Yes they need alot of water flow. You should see their branches waving some. And yes phytoplankton or zooplankton is necessary. Good luck. They aren't hardy....Try and place it in a shady spot with good water flow. Just make sure you dose...

Question is do you have things in the tank that would use it? I would suggest not doseing unless you have xenia. Even then its not necessary as xenia is a weed anyways. If you want to dose try doing a quarter or half of whatever the recommended does is. I do...

I was told a long time ago 5x an hour is sufficient.... But i guess that adds up when you figure in all your pumps. Im up around 20.

Try plexiglass for the mount...

hmmm. Try not to put any uneccessary chems in your tank. IE phosphate remover. Whatever you buy get some mexican turbo snails for the hair algae. For everything else variety is the spice of life. If you want a new fish a bicolor blenny or lawnmower blenny will also take care of the hair...

I also think strontium is only needed in sps/lps corals ie things that create hard shell skeletons.... Other than that your doseing sounds correct. Other than adding some kind of carbonate salts in conjunction with the calcium...

I want to say yes but a 10 may be too small for one if it grows or decides to move where you don't want it...... With that 96 watt power quad try keeping frog/hammer corals....

Well try looking at the sun sometime with your eyes. Its all but impossible for 2 or 3 seconds without burning them. The intensity of light the sun puts out can't be matched in a home aquarium. Apply that to hallides and pc's You can easily look at pc's and vho's and with a little adjustment...

What kip says works but i don't think you can glue seperate zoos down very well. Anything that slimes will shed off the super glue. What yo ucan try and do is form a bridge in between the polyps that holds the zoos down to the rock. THey are held down with the arc of glue and will eventually...

I have read in a typical reef that the maximum lighting a reef gets is for only 4-6 hours a day. He seems to be simulating that photoperiod. Y? i coudlnt' tell you. He'd probably get more growth with at least 6 hours a day but i guess that is his perogative. Heck my acro i have doesn't "open...

Youre fine. There is a show tank here in Raleigh with roughly the same thing you have. Naso,Sailfin, Purple, and Regal, plus a domino, green chromis, and pj cardinal. Not to mention about 10 brittle stars maybe 15 to eat the food they feed 4 times a day. All these fish are close to full size...
