I wish I was Laurence!!!! Just kidding. Office Space is the BEST movie of all time!

This is a verbal description, I would post a pic but I do not know what it's called! :D This is going to be a long shot, but here goes nothing. It's about 3 or so inches long and has a "yellowish" colored face. It goes to the bottom of the tank and grabs a mouth full of sand. Then, it...

I have had help from a retired marine biologist on my tank. He has had a reef tank for close to 8 years now. According to him, my tank cycled in a week and a half. He said it was because of the amount of LR and LS that I had in my tank. A few people on this site suggested that I force another...

I'm hoping it stays decent looking. Alot of brown algae is springing up.

I added about 50 pounds of Limestone on Saturday.

I have 60# of Arag-alive by caribsea.

Well, I was under the impression that my tank cycled FAST. From everything that I have read, it usually take a month or so, correct??? I thought I was lucky or something. :D Thanks again.

Has anyone seen or heard about these??? Azoo 7.4 tank I was just curious to see what your opinions were. I am mainly concerned about the lighting. Any information would be appreciated!

He said that I could use it for the cycle. I said, "whatever you say." Okay, I'll try the dead cocktail shrimp and see what happens. Thanks for the help!!! :)

I have a coral banded shrimp that a friend let me "borrow" for my cycle. I put him in 2 days after I put water in my tank. He is doing just fine. My LR came with 2 crabs and 1 snail also. Everything is still alive. Should I pull them all out???

According to my test kit I haven't. The nitrite test is extremely easy to read, so I know I haven't read it wrong.

nitrates did, nitrites has stayed at 0 since day one.

I have 40# LR and 60# LS. My levels rose up a little bit and now they are back down to ALMOST 0. I can't really tell the difference. It is right between 0 and the respective 1st mark on the test kit. My fist ammonia reading was .25 and it stayed that way until Friday when it read 0. As of 5...

Originally posted by Fishtails Sorry.....The red algea sure does look like red hair algea(cynaobacteria)....It is also normal in a new tank.....What is your phosphate test kit reading? Do you use tap-water or RO? I believe it's just part of your cycle...... I am using RO water. I do not have...

English please!!! :D :p I have read that brown is part of the cycle process. What about the red spots????? Is all of this normal or do I have something else happening?

Everything is good with my tests so far. ph is 8.2, everything else is 0, salinity is 1.023, and temp is 78

I don't think so, since this is my first sw tank. Maybe in the future. I do have star pollyps and 1 mushroom, though.

What is this stuff? Good or bad? My tank has been up for 1 week now. Any suggestions??????

I bought a Prizm. I know that I am new to this hobby, but what might be loud to some might not be loud to others. I don't have a problem with mine. Just my .02

Does anyone know where I can get a retrofit kit to add biowheels to a powerfilter? I have been searching for a few days with NO luck! Thanks in advance!!
