Just a small tip if you are having trouble with your zoas, really any corals, and you happen to keep your salinity on the low side for the benifit of your fish. Many of us keep our salinity on the low side becasue parasites have difficulty hosting our fish, but what about our corals health? If...

If you want fast growing coraline try kalwassr in your topoff and Kent's liquid calcium daily per direction. You will need to use kent's strontium/moly also. I agree, purple up is a waste of money. I tryed it and tossed a half bottle. Now all I use is Kent's stron/moly, liquid calcium, top-off...

Those are common hitchhikers. They are filter feeders and usually pretty hardy. They close tight and survive beign in the dry for a time even. Usually they jsut stay put. You dion't nee dto bother feeding it directly, they do very well on the excess from fish/coral feedings.

looks like you have the makings for an awesome setup. What are you planning on doing with it? FOWLR or reef?

Can you describe it or post some pics? There are far too many different alga types that can spring up from a change in lighting, though it usually is not the lighting that is the cause, jsut helped fuel it. It could be excess nitrates, phosphates, a number of different things. What type of...

I vote that SWF posts some WYSIWYG on the auction site whether fish, corals and/or inverts and let pple bid on them. Why not? They started the auction site so why shouldn't they participate in it? What does everyone think?

I just saw the thread myself. I did see that I was mentioned about geting a little help, but I never got a Pm about it. How can you get any help if you don't seek it? Are pple supposed to hunt down those that are needing help here? I see you got a painted angler too. You do know that it will...

Get a couple emerald crabs and while they are clearing the algae work on what is causeing the algae in the first place. Try kalwasser in your top off water per directions, protein skimming and phosphate removing with phosban or like product. What is causing the algae to grow? Probably...
