you think? I kinda wondered what effect that might have on the fish and corals

My yellow lemonpeel all of a sudden today starting looking pale (losing color) in the mid section... No signs of ich on any fish and he swimming and eating well... Heres the two variables that have changes recently.... 1) I had to change out my two false percs (that were in the tank) with two...

I have a 40 gallon tall tank... 30" wide and 24" tall... So far I have been running it with 1x65W current satellite PC light... Soft corals have done alright, but with slow growth (ie: gsp, gorgonian and xenias)... Today I'm getting another current light that is the same but 2x65W.. to add to...

so if I get distilled water for top offs, that should be good?

Can I top off my 5 gallon at work with Ozark or another brand bottled water?

thanks... I just had a few "scraps" from my larger tank... but if I can save them today, I'll try and take them out...

I have a new tank (5 days old) that is a 5 gallon setup with 10W 50/50 power compact. I put in a few zoos to see how they might do, and I'm wondering, as the tank is cycling, can ammonia levels and nitrite levels above 0.0 cause the coral not do come out yet?

sorry...just wanted some thoughts on swaping those out and if so, should I wait a few months...?

I just got 2 maroon clowns last night and they are in a 20 gallon nano tank... For now they are OK..however as they get to be 6-7" I was thinking about swaping them out with my other 2 clown fish (false perculas) that are in my main tank (40 gallons) as these get only 3 1/2". My main tank has...

all over really...just saw him for a second and looks like it all over the fins.. Hes back in his little hole right now.. I think its where hes set up shop for cleaning...

I just noticed that my (tank raised) goby might have ich... nothing else in the tank has it... and I'm wondering if it is indeed ich (this is in my 40 gallon BTW)... I just started a 5 gallon tank and had some left over live sand that I poured in the 40 gallon... Needless to say it clouded the...

OK...well I wait and see... I put some zoos and some gsp in there just to see (from my large tank).. but the tank is 2 days old so many things can be not right at this point... not cycled... not the right calcium levels, ALK.. etc. Just making sure.... I want to get the 20W though, will that...

I just got an eclipse 5 with a 10W PC light... I was trying not to modify the hood any, but will the coralife 50/50 mini compact light (20W) be safe in there... Heat and ballast wise??? I am only wanting zoos and polyps in there and I might put some xenias from my large tank in there just to...

BTW.. thanks for the advice on the acrylic. I'll be careful. I'm setting this up at home until its more established then moving it to my desk at work. Yea, I had some chromis in my main tank and decided to use one in there... Dont some people cycle with damsels?

i think once this bad weather clears, I'm going to go pickup that 50/50 light thats 20W... then I could hopefully get those zoos to not only do well, but grow... and the heater is going in... I'll get some pics up later! I got a nice little ammonia spike going... ah the cycling. Gotta love it...

just a got a new eclipse 5 gallon hex... it came with its own filtration and I upgraded to the 10w PC lighting... I have about 8lbs of cured rock (alot of growth!!) and some live sand in there now. I also dropped in a chromis from my main tank to start cycling. My questions are these.. 1) I have...

anyone else?
