ReefNut beat me to it

most people don't use one b.c of heat. Keeping a top on it discourages evaporation (evaporations helps cool the water). I think they are a pain too, b.c you always have to either take them off or get them out of the way when moving stuff around in the tank and just having to lift a canopy and...

I second what paulcoates said if thats what you are wanting to hear. Is there something else you want to know or were you just looking for a 2nd opinion?

guess it kinda depends on what you want to keep. What you have now would be fine for any softie or LPS. If you put SPS high up on your rock more directly under the light you might even be able to do that too... I think clams would be stretching it though. I would just keep what you had and...

I've never tried to glue anything to rubber, but I'm guessing it would probably be more like acrylic than glass in the way you make things stick. With acrylic you need to use weldon or some other solvent that actually welds the plastics together b/c silicone will not adhere to it like glass...

Plants definately help your water quality by removing nitrate and other harmful/ nuesance type toxins and minerals. However, you typically keep them in a separate refugium b.c they will take over a tank pretty quickly. As fast as the caulerpa grows in my refugium, I know I wouldn't want it in...

If there has been a lot of changing in your system the past week or few days, they are probably just stressed out and you just need to be patient and give them a few days to get used to the new conditions and just do about a 10% or so water change every week so that the system stays very stable...

Just wait unitl they get bigger... I wouldn't worry too much about the bioload if you can keep everything stable for a while b/c once the lion gets to about 3-5" he will elimiate the remaining bioload. For sure the damsels will become dinner. I did the same thing about 8 or 9 yrs ago. My...

people have had problems with the oceanic being abnormally high in calcium. I've been through 7 buckets and haven't had a problem, but you might want to find out if that has been corrected yet, or if you live in the same area as the people that have bought the unbalanced mix. I've used many...

and i would leave the mexican turbos off as well...they do get kinda annoying sometimes knocking stuff over

I would get 10 - 20 blue leg hermit crabs and 10 scarlet hermit crabs also. I wouldn't get the fighting conch, but you could get a queen conch if you want...they are much smaller. i would add an emerald crab to the list as well.

If there is enough stalk showing, you can just wedge it between 2 rocks and it will attach itself as long as it is sturdy and not able to wiggle in the current. If that doesn't work, you can poke a hole about 1/4" from the bottom and put fishing line through it and tie it to a rock. It will...
