Greg, What kind of trigger is that in one of yor first few pics. I thought they were not reef safe, How is he doing in your tank, i really want one.

First off alot of people will argue your crushed coral. I have always been a sand person after my accident that left my tank dead when the crushed croal got disturbed and turned the tank into milk. The 75 lbs of liverock is for all of your fish and especially the coral beauty or flame...

They are very picky stars. you need to have alot of food source in the tank for them to survive well. I know my orange one is all over the tank. In 20 minutes i can watch it go from one side of the 125 to other, and they do not care what is in the way, running over everything. I have...

Hmmmm yes it is a common problem with anyone haveing suction cups in the tank. Just replace your suction cups monthly and it is fine. Also you have to remeber not only to scrap the galss where the suction is but also take your finger nail and scrap the inside of the suction cup. I find...

The expensive side of the hobby. Wow I started 2 1/2 yrs ago with a 29 gal tank and 5 lbs of live rock some sand and an emerald crab. Now over the years everything just grows and it is a great excuss to tell the wife to get a bigger tank. Now currently I have a 125 gal reef and a 45 gal...

My background is called Oceanvisions. You apply with soapy water and i used my credit card. Goes on like tint and is very easy to apply. I even applyed it very easily with out having to remove anything off of the back of my tank. It is cheap and if you ever decided to change colors or...

i dont know of any hermits besides the green ones that will eat anything in the tank. best i can save is buy a few and just watch them.

yes my sand is one of a kind, i have never seen anyone else on the boards have it. it is a mixture of blue and salmon marine sand made from estes. under the metal halids it makes it look purple. it is fully alive also and never looks dirty.

hmm i had my first maroon for about a year and i always wanted a mated pair. One day i was at LFS and there was a baby maroon for 12 bucks. I said why not try it and mate them myself. Well 3 days later i caught them shareing the same anenome and they are always togther since. I have had...

i have 3 very large frags of frogspawn and i always frag mine. I just take it in 2 hands and apply some force and where ever it breaks i get a new frag. I frogspawn will not seed or go into a spot that is dead. As a frogspawn grows it creates it own base over time, it uses calcium and...

the only elments i add to my tank is kalkwasser to rasie the calcium. I have no choice on salt as i won 13 cases of IO salt at MACNA this past year.

several of my friends all use seaclone, the only bad thing with it is in the begingin for about the first week it spits out very fine bubbles which are fine. they go away once the systems breaks in. the reason behinds the bubbles i am told is some times the additivies in the water.
