Here is a picture. I'm finally learning how to do this pic stuff.:joy: Sand, "tumble" small live rock, one or two snails, some of those tiny white stars, bristel worms, and I had some star polyps that grow don't there but the other day I took all the junk, cleaned the rocks and put them back...

Mine reads that sometimes in my mixing bucket. I'm sure it's from residual salt. Rinse your buckets really well and see if that takes care of it.

Did this work. This was the best small thing I could find. I cropped and then resized but all my picture were too small. I think there is just too many pixels. I found a pic from the internet on my computer and I was able to have like 1/4 of the picture but I didn't like it. This will do...

Yes that is what I mean. Sorry but I always get my names for things mixed up.

Ok I see where to do this but how do you and others get such detailed pictures with only 110 by 100 pixels??? When I resize a picture I have on file I only get the smallest square that I can't even fit a head shot in.

I'm suprised to hear that crabs are bad. What do you use instead of crads to clean all the other hard-for-a-snail-to-reach-places? I can't have Shrimp right now since my Green Brittle Star makes sushi out of them. I do need more cleanup crew in my refigium/sump. That is where I have the...

Well I have crads in my tank. Is this bad with a DSB? I'm surprized to hear this.

How Do you add that Pic under your screen name?

ALexander meaning "Helper of People" = AREIJIN in Japanese Kanji. I got this name when I lived there as an exchange student from my Shodo (Japanese Caligraph) teacher. The best part about it is that I will never need to add number at the end of it

Well I can see worm lines but there is still a lot of air bubbles and dense coloration. I know for a fact that I need more snails. I heard that the Nassarius were the sand sifting ones. Other then those snails is there other Sand cleanup crew that I should buy?

MACRO not Micro. Thanks for the heads up. So should I get ride of my otehr MACRO (hair algea and all) and start with Chaeto? Like I said this is the only area where Hair Algea grows for me. I will be getting a po3 test kit in the mail very soon as well.

I totally agree with these guys. I have five pwer heads running for a good flow plus the return pump. There is an attachment you can put on the end of the return pump called a circle flow assembly under plumbing parts. I think this is the same place you found that hood lights since I was...

I agree but that is the only picture I have of a sump. Actually it's not mine. I pinched it from somebody on SWF but I think it is a good setup and plan to redo mine in this style next time.

I plan to keep it for a while at least. Just make sure you decide yourself, and if you go the DSB route, make sure you know how to maintain you DSB and tank. It is different than using system without a DSB. What is the maintains??? My one problem is that my substrate is SUPER fine. Finer then...

Tony. you were talking about my DSB thread and I wanted to say how I feel for your leeking tank. I has 30 plus gallons pumped like Old Faithful from my return pump into my new ( and not insured) apartments floor. Better yet I only owned my tank of a month or so. My girlfriend and I had to...

I'm no expert but an overflow box is two boxes that hang on your tank. One inside and one outside. You use "U" shaped tube to suck the water that "overflows into the box in your tank over the lip of your tank and into the next box. Yes water does have this strange ability to flow upwards as...

Oh you guys confuse me too much. However on a similar Thread floating out there by Fishman77, Bang Guy said this stuff is "Perfectly Normal". To keep you both happy when I change that tank I will change the substrate and keep a DSB but not too Deep.:D

Bang Guy: Thanks again for a second Thread aswer today. I told my girlfiend it was ok.:cheer: So one question: Is considered "Good Live Sand"????

Thanks Bang Guy. So with my hair algea problem that only is aparent with my caulerpa and no where elsein my tank, is there a better micro to get??? It has been doing well for me so fare but I would assume not so well for Phosphates(actaully I don't think a refigium does anything for phosphates...

OK. Still have teh power out question but found the answer to the electic bill thing. For some reason that seems like a deal.
