which anemone works best, and is easier to keep. Are there certain ones tomato clowns like. I heard they are somewhat more aggresive than others.

Finished 4 months of setup, going into 5 and trying to plan on purchase of clowns and anemone, I hope I can get them to host. Is it better to get anemone first then add clowns, or together or clowns then anemone, or does it matter. Are wild clowns more likely to host? Water has been steady for...

I put a filter sock into my return line that comes out of my refugium into the return portion of wet/dry to help clear up the water at direction of LFS. My question is I have the return from DT splitting into a wet/dry system and a Refugium, half into each, the refugium has chaeto and good...

90gl. tank 4 months old, all water parameters right on line and consistent. Have 1 yellow tang, 1 foxface and few soft coral and zoa. Added 3 small PJ cardinals one week ago and have not gotten them to eat that I can see yet. I have a very good population of copepods in tank, could they be...

What is best way to feed your zoos, I have used cyclopeze frozen squirt about every third day, in a 90 gl with about 7 small frags. Thanks Rick. I just squirt into a powerhead while it is running.

When you trim it what do you do with it, sell it, trade it or just through it out, I started some and it has almost covered the top of 10 gl tank.

I have a 10gl refugium with about 10 lb live rock and no sand with chaeto. Would this work better with a sand bed? New to all this also. Should I leave live rock with live sand, hoping to keep copepod levels high.

Have cut back on feeding, only a yellow tang and foxface in tank, feeding algae sheets every couple days with SMALL amount of pellets every other day. They go nuts when its feeding time. Have a refugium with live rock and chaeta in it, recently put a sock on water intake and microfilter. getting...

bump, I sitll need some guidance on this, thanks, and i never did get an answer on times to keep my lighting on in tank.

Bumping this, I still need some advice on the lighting times. thanks

Not sure what color you would call the haze, possibly light green, the film on glass looks light brown or red. Was using carbon but took it out at advice of LFS when I put the micro filter and sock in. I also have had to use some Kick Ick for last week due to ick problem. Fish are doing fine now...

What can be some of the sources of phosphate if you use RO/DI water?

What I have noticed is my water is slightly hazy and I am getting what looks like a redish brown film on glass quickly, cleaning it a couple times a day. Rock seems to have more brown algae than earlier. I put a sock on my water line and micro filter hoping this will help. Cant seem to get water...

All levels are great, 0 on Nitrate, Nitrite, and amonia levels, I use RO/DI water now. When I first filled tank it was well water but the last 3 water changes of 20gls each at 2 week intervals, have been water through system, and all top off water is treated. I dont have phosphate kit but I just...
