I am so confused :notsure: ......There are so many different types of lighting fixtures available these days! I am setting up a new 95g tank (48x18X24) for a Huma Huma trigger, Snowflake moray, an angel (not decided yet), 3 green chromis and maybe a puffer. Will a Coralife PC 4x65 with 4 LED...

What kind of lighting system do you have?

I saw a similar hermit crab in the store. Maybe I will give it a try when my tank is setup. Can you post your list of livestock? I can only afford a 95g tank. If I do the math, I figure I can keep almost half of the livestock you have.....right?

Cool stuff!!! Is the hermit crabs safe in there? I am setting up a FOWLR. I like to keep some shrimps and crabs but worry that the trigger will eat them.

Thank you so much for your thoughts. I can't wait to order it. Hopefully, I can post some pics by Christmas.....the tank will need to be cycled.

My husband is giving me a new tank for Christmas and here is the list: All-Glass WAVE 95g glass tank with MegaFlow with stand Bio-Fil 125 wet/dry filter Arctica DBA-15 - 1/5HP chiller Little Giant 4-MDQX-SC motor for filter and chiller ASM G-2 Skimmer T-5 48" lighting LR and LS Stealth 200...

I am in the process of deciding which brand of tank to get for my 90g setup. Which makes Tenecor or Clear-for-Life? Or, is there any other manufacturers make good acrylic tanks? Please help me make the right decision.

:notsure: Size: 24g LR: 25 lbs LS: 15lbs Temp: 80 - 81F pH: 8.0 - 8.2 Nitrates 0 Nitrites 0 Ammonia 0 Alk Normal I used the Marine Lab by Red Sea to do the tests. The tank was set up on Sept. 30th. The LR were cured and came with 2 hitchhikers: a Sally Lightfoot crab and a pitol shrimp. I...

I want one, too :jumping: What is the proper way to handle them when you get them home from the store (i.e. should I use a net?)? Are their fins poisonous? I just started a small tank and will not be ready for lionfish soon but I think I will get one when I get my big tank next April.

Do you need fresh garlic? Can I prepare some in advance and put it in the refg? Its a lot of work to mash garlic for each feeding.

Since it only has two little white dots, can garlic help? I just got the fish yesterday and hate to put him in treatment to further the shock. Will it help at all if I put some garlic in the food?

IF the salinity drops in the tank to treat the ich, will it harm the shrimp, snails and crabs in the tank?

It looks like it has a white dot on its chin and another one on its fin. Does a fresh water dip help? He is the only fish in my tank with 2 hermit crabs and a cleaner shrimp. I think the safest thing to do is a fresh water dip. How long can I leave it in the fresh water? Please help!!!

Thanks, everyone. I just started to cycle my tank. No fish, only live rock and live sand. I don't want to start an algae problem by leaving the light on for too long.

Please help! I just started the tank and so far no algae problem and I don't want to create one by leaving the light on for too long. So, how long should I leave the tank light on each day? We don't have a lot of sunlight during the day, just a little nature light from a window about 15 feet...

I heard that we should not use fish to start the cycling of a new tank. What should we use? We have some cured live rock and live sand in the tank for almost a week. The water was tested twice: Temp 81.6 and 83.0 pH 7.8/8.0 Alk high NO2 - 0 NO3 - 0 NH3/NH4 - 0 I can see a couple of tiny...
