i was wondering how much evaporation everyone gets in their tanks. since i set up my 150 with 975 watts of metal halide, i am replacing 3 or more gallons of water a day. this amount seems like alot to me, is this a normal amount??

yeah i was just going to leave mine alone untill they started multiplying like crazy. the mushrooms they were starting to surround wer'nt opening as big lately either, so i decided mine had to go.

and here is right after squirting them.

when i first set up my 55 gal almost a year ago i gat some live rock with 2 tiny majano anemones on them. at first i didn't know what they were ant thought they were kinda cool looking.over the next several months they didn't really multipply so i left them. when i swicthed over to my new tank...

hmmmm. if fish are doing fine, there may be no chemicles:confused: have you tried testing for copper? i know that can be deadly for inverts.

your live rock and sand probably absorbed a lot of the chemicles from the soap and now are leeching them back into the water. you are probably going to have to ditch the sand and live rock, scrup your tank real well and start over. hth

thanks everyone, i have had the pbt for almost 2 weeks now, with no problems at all. he eats anything and everything i put into the tank. i have been feeding the fish food heavily soaked in garlic to try and prevent any ich since i know the pbt is highly suseptable to it.

and my powder blue:D

gold stripe maroon and scissortail in 30 gal

another of my maroon

i got some cute pics of my fish tonight, looks like they are all saying HI

you could possibly get a yellow tang or a kole tang, those two do well in a tank your size. or other fish you could look in to are firefish, anthias, cardinals

a 65 gal is too small to keep a hippo tang long term. they get too big and need lots of swimming room. the racoon would be fine, otherwise you fish load sounds good

i am assuming your 4 40 watt bulbs are normal output florescents? if that is the case you won't be able to keep any corals under that. you will need for a 60 gal at least 200 -240 watts of power compact for low light corals. HTH

yes, as long as you have the right lighting, any size tank can be a reef

:)

well i am down to 2 sexy shrimp:nope: one of them there has been no sign of since i added them and a few days ago i found one stck in a powerhead. the two i have left are the bigger ones we got and they seem to be doing really well:joy:

i love the sexy shrimp:)

if you can get him out, i'd put him in a bucket and a makeshift lid

sounds great:D good luck with her
