    Snail Eggs?

    you may be right. I swear i may have taken one or two of those out of the coral tanks. I'm going based off of sprungs book and while some of the snails i took look like the Euplica(dove shells) i could swear some do look like the strombus. Granted they aren't very big right now. Maybe a half...

    The NANO Police!

    I can say i started my salt water with a 12 nano and its a great little tank. Have a 20 too. I didn't find it too hard. Granted im not keeping the hardest stuff in it. I thinks its more a matter that people dont understand the scope and size of reefs. Your average coral colony in the wild...

    Snail Eggs?

    I have three round waterspot looking packets on my thermometer. Each packet has 5 or 6 eggs in them. I've seen them before in our coral tanks at work and so i took some of the critters in the tanks home hoping to do the same. I'm just curious as to if they are snail eggs or half shell...

    caulerpa/ mangrove in tank ?? Can I

    Yes on both accounts.... Just make sure the caulerpa doesn't get out of control and overun your corals. The mangrove just needs to stay away from BURNING lights :)

    bio balls or no bio balls

    If you are going to get live rock bio balls are not necessary. Live rock harbors enough bacteria for the tank, which is essentially what bioballs culture....

    declining hammer

    sure but thats pushing the spectrum of the temperature. 84 is really pushing it. Give it time. He may never fully be what yo uwant though due to the temp

    declining hammer

    It could just be environmental changes are stressing him. I would work on reducing your temperature as much as possible. I've always found that when my tank got up that high the corals didn't expand very well. Keep your salinity up around .024/.025 too....

    Ick Purple Tang Reef Tank Manderin Blennie?

    I've seen garlic save some fish before. I've also seen ick kill a tank over night. If the mandarin doesn't have any spots then treat just the tang. But you also run the risk of regiving ick to the tang cause it hung out on the manderin. Its really a judgement call....

    domino damsel behaviour abnormal?

    AHHHHH but dominos are clowns...... I didn't know until i looked at a clown book. And there they were hosting amemones. I don't think it's widely known that dominos are more like clowns than damsels. But they will host anemones. They will also school if you get enough of them together.

    Tap water vs ro

    Potentially. R/O units are not to expensive. They make really small ones. You really only need one that does 10-15 gallons. You may just have a slow initial setup.... Shop around some. The best way to go is RO though..... If all else fails though then purified water will get rid of alot...

    Look at my poor clown- she has popeye

    popeye is treatable. Not sure with what. If you can isolate him before treating. IF you have no invertebretes then you could potentially treat the tank.
