Marriage is great for the first couple of months, then it is the same old cracker!!! Better put away a fish budget now!

I have a 36 Watt, it has been sent back to the company because it leaked. They still haven't sent me the replacement and it has been almost 2 weeks. Don't buy one. It appears to be a Double Piece of "XXXX".

Its alive and well. Over the last couple of days It has come back. Thanks,

Once every 2 months. I add "essential elements" every 2 to 3 weeks. I loose only about 2.5 Gallons of water every 1.5 weeks. I think the Key is "Live Rock". It has almost eliminated all the Algae problems that I was having. It must do something great for the water. I can tell you this...

The good thing about Acrylic is if you scratch it, you can buff it out with an inexpensive kit you can buy. I unfortunately have scratched my glass tank, and am stuck with the damage. Plus Acrylic won't have a silicon seal that can fail 10 yrs. down the road. Happened to a friend of mine with...

Hopefully this will help you out. I was trying to get my company to buy a 300 gallon tank for the Lobby. So I could have them buy the fish maintain the tank and feed my hobby. Didn't work. I went to a Bunch! of internet sites trying to find the cheapest, best Acrylic tank. I am talking just...

Temperature, Temperature, Temperature! Don't let it drop more than 10 degrees. When I bought my tank, which was set up for a couple of years, I had to move it only 3 miles. Used 32 Gal. trash cans to move the water in 2 trucks. Kept about 150 Gallons. We were pouring the water out of...

Where did you get it, What part of the world is it from, How much per pound, How much was the shipping? The Fiji I have been getting for $5 per pound at the Local Pet store has only coraline algae. I have a 175 gallon tank with 30 lbs. of live rock. I have seen a lot of advertisements for...

If I cut this leather in four pieces, like a pizza. How do you recommend attaching it to a rock? Has anyone tried this? How long did it take before it grew back?

I don't know if the coral is dead. My heater failed when I was out of town for 5 days. The tank dropped to 62 Deg. All the fish made it but my "Toadstool Leather" no longer has its frilly tentacles hanging out. He doesn't look to be deteriating, but it has been 4 days and they still aren't...

Thanks for all the replies. I now plan on getting either a Coral Beauty or a Flame. I am slowly adding live rock to the tank as my budget will allow. I am currently seeding the tank with calcium so the live rock will spread. The coraline algae is spreading to my lace rock. I now have about...

I plan on only getting very hardy corals, ie.. mushrooms, polyps, and maybe a Brain or another anenome. My lighting is only 280 VHO Watts for a 175 Gallon tank.

I have a 175 Gallon Tank. 20 lbs. of Fiji Live Rock (spreading to 40 lbs of base rock), UV Filter, Wet Dry Filter, Skimmer, 280 Watts VHO light. I don't want to purchase any more lights or filters. What begginner corals should I start with and what fish? I was told that I could do some...

I am having this same problem. I only have 9 lbs. in a 175 gallon tank. The lace rock is below the live. I am hoping it will spread to the other rock so I have been adding calcium. I would like to know how much to add and what is the appropriate level for a fish only tank, with a little...

I am tired of loosing fish because they are incompatable. I was looking at getting either the Clown tang or Naso Tang. Does anyone have any experience with clown tangs? I have heard that they are a sensitive fish. I have a niger trigger, humu trigger, kole tang, lunar wrasse, clark clown, 2...

I can't get my skimmer to work. The pump is brand new, a RIO 2500. Which used to work fine. I now can't get the bubbles to go all the way up the lift tube. The air nozzle is all the way open but not getting the flow or bubbles that I need. Could the inlet to the Skimmer be clogged? Let...

The tank has been up and going for 7 months. 2 triggers, 4 damsels, 1 clown, 1 yellow tang, 1 eel, 1 wrasse. 5 lbs. live rock hoping it will spread. Brown Algae, and a little green is all over the glass. Limited the lights to 7 hrs. per day. Added new blinds to window so no sunlight comes...

I can't get my Berlin to work. Just put on a Rio 2500 and it used to flow bubbles into the collection cup. Now it hasn't in over a month. The valve is wide open. I just noticed that it has been lost and sucked up my main pump because it isn't in the sump. How can I get another one? Any...

I have been trying unsuccessfully to get rid of my algae problem. I have replaced the blinds, limited the lights to 7 hrs. per day., bought a small amount of live rock 5 lbs., bought a protein skimmmer. But I still have a bad brown algae problem. Everything I have read is not working. The Berlin...
