ahaha. oh well. i havent taken in it a year and a half or so. and nevermind about what i said.... i can see that you are not keeping an octopus tank, but an octogon tank... it was late, as the wuality of my french was well demonstrated. give me a break. haha

je l'aime. mettes "astro-turf" a l'haut parceque il l'arrettera d'echappe. comprenez-vous? je regrette si mon francais etait tres mal. haha

yeah, a cleaner clam would be safe and able to protect itself. it probably died and then came up to the surface and opened, because that is what they do. as far as tridanca species using up nitrates, yes, it is true. per square inch, tridanca speccies have as much as 10X the amount of...

you will run in to problems with a cat shark in a reef. first off, they need a large tank as it is, but then with all the waste they produce, in a reef, you may need even larger and more ifltration. also they need a lot of open space with a lot of sand. so if it is a reef, either it isnt a...

yeah. eggcrate woudl be a useable option. i have a bit on the bottom of my 40 breeder holding up my ORA duncan. with an 80X turnover rate, the sand can get kinda disturbed soemtimes, so i have it there for security and it works well. but in a 90 gallon tank, i would start the coral in the...

i personaly wouldnt. you coudl do it, but they get knocked over easily. also, not sure how much light or how deep your tank is, but more is almost always better.

i would also suggest a 250 watt. i had a 150 watt and PCs over my 40 breeder at one point. i kept a few sps and a clam, but the color on the sps wasnt very good as there was an obvious difference even a few inches down. then i upgraded to a 250 watt and things were much better. it wasnt too...

there is no hole in thi one though. it is jut a tiny crack. and it is even on the back end of the bulb, so nothing is going to be in direct contact. also, since it is DE, it has the UV glass on the pendant. but yeah. i figured id probably just be replacing it but i was wondering what other...

hey everyone. i'm "downgrading" my lighting from a 400 watt MH to a 250 watt de. (i put the quotation marks because i am also downgrading tanks form a 40 breeder to a 10 gallon :D )... anyways. i have the fixture but just bought a new bulb. the outermost piece of glass is slightly cracked...

it's a good one. just a micro brittle star

many LFSs have it. or if not, you can order it off most online sites.

if it stinks it is rotten. dont use it

small, finely chopped pieces of krill, squid, or silversides work well also. basicly anything raw, seafood, and meaty.

make sure your Mg and Ca levels are in check. I have had sever dKH problems too. not that bad. between 5-7 even with the additino of Ca, Mg, and kent super buffer. Im also doing water changes with oceanic (the dKH i am getting is around 18-19...) and still no luck. But as of today i am...

ill get to be in chemistry in a little over 8 hours... taking a test... :( and thanks mopar!

mysis and bloodworms are probably your best bet. i hope you have a lot of pods to keep him healthy until/if he weens on frozen. also, frozen brine may work, youll just have to fortify the heck out of it with vitamines. or you can hatch your own. good luck!
