i know swf.com sells coral, but i was thinking by getting a frag you could get a much cheaper price... maybe not!

I am interested in getting frags of corals, but have no idea where to get them. Can anyone PM me and let me know of a good site that sells them? My tank can support anything i can throw at it and all i have currently is some xenia and colt coral.

Here are some pics from last week... I know about the tang so don't bother :) Does anyone think i need another powerhead? or maybe reposition them? I feel like the back of my tank gets no flow, but if i move my powerheads then somewhere else doesnt get any.

diamond goby's will keep your sand white as the day you bought it, but! they are very messy and will get sand everywhere. They also think life on the outside is better than in the tank (they jump) Nass. Snails work and sifting the sand, but wont do much to keep it white. Sand Sifting stars do a...

i have 7 green chomis in my tank and i agree w/ everything Peter said. They swim in a school, but its not as tight as you might see on tv or in the movies. They are also very active fish and light to hang out in the top 1/3 of my tank during the day. At night they get into tiny areas to sleep...

thats how i bought them and they appear that way for me to. The only thing that throws me is the top one is really orange w/ really black fins where the other one is more brownish/orange. they have started to get along better since i posted. I still seem the bully chasing the other one, but not...

The clown on the top is the bully... do they both appear to be false perculas?

Originally Posted by Dude23455 I am running both a tunze nanostream 6025 and a koralia #4 in my tank. the koralia has way way more flow than the tunze. The flow pattern is wider and more dispersed than the tunze. The tunze does have a much smaller footprint in the tank. the koralias are kinda...

why does the live cam never work when i try to see it? I can look at snapshots, but not the cam.

The skimmer is a good choice. I have the same one ,but the w/ the Mag 3 pump. Word of advice though, if your using it in your main tank as a HOB get the filter box for like $30. They hide the pump great and only take the gunk from the top of the water (the stuff you want) As for the whisper...

i have a 6 bulb unit on my 55 gallon and to be honest if i was going to do it all again i would get the 4. the two bulbs on the end are basically over the very front and back of the tank so dont give much direct light. I got the 6 unit in plans of upgrading to a 90 gallon in the near future. a...

does anyone know how they hydor's compare to the tunze nanostreams? I have two nanostreams and need one more powerhead, but dont know if i should get another tunze or a hydor.

my advice is go w/ TEK. Dont skimp on lights because if you want corals or clams you dont want a $80 coral to die because your lights aren't up to par. Sure you saved some money on the purchase of the lights, but you will lose down the road. If you want T-5 i dont think anyone will argue TEK is...

most people will tell you to ditch the crushed coral and get sand. Sand wil turn into Live sand which hosts biological organisims which help keep your nitrate levels low. also, i only see one powerhead in your tank. that is not nearly enough. you need at least one more, maybe 2 (depending on...

The reason people say not to use it is the reason for canister filters is mainly biological filtration. thats what LR is for, so most people would say take the 100-300 you would spend on your canister filter and get LR. in my situation and yours we already have them so might as make as much use...

i agree.... his tank is just beautiful so that speaks for itself. I guess i have just always been told water changes so thats what i do. I would love to not have to do water changes and the headaches that go along with it.

id be curious to know where those temp readings are coming from. The surface, 10ft down, 30 ft down etc? cause i'm sure we all have experainced where the surface is nice and warm, but then our feet are cold

people all over this board say things like that and i think its just wrong. They say the worlds oceans are in the high 80. I have been to many oceans and maybe in the first foot they are, but not 10-50 feet down. 88 is pretty warm, it doesnt seem like it would be but for water thats hot. I...
