They're also nocturnal. Mine rarely move during the day, but go nuts after the lights are out.

Wow, Bang's response makes me think my water conditions are less than desirable. I guess I should try to make it die. :thinking:

Come on chemical experts, am I setting myself up for trouble?

That what I was thinking Shawnts106. Anyone else?

Well you say good, so I guess I have to trust you on that. How about salinity and temp? Was it all the same as before? Did you use all of the old rock and water and substrate?

Okay, not! But give me a break, I live in the desert. What is this? Some kind of coraline? It is like a little bush and I have about three of them. Hard not soft.

What's your calcium, alk, and Ph?

It has Calcium chloride, sodium chloride, potassium chloride, and strontium chloride. Doesn't say how much of each though. Got mine at Wal-mart. 4.5 pounds for $6.00.

Agreed. When it's time to replace my membrane, I'll use the lower rated one.

I had a problem raising my calcium levels to be balanced between CA, ALK, and PH. Some reefers suggested the calcium additive for swimming pools. I used it with great success and for a fraction of the cost. The only difference I can easily see in the ingredients is that the swimming pool...

Thanks NM reef. I've been having the hardest time finding one that maintains the temp within 1 degree. I'll try to locate that brand.

I would have: Used acrylic for both display and sump Installed a sump/refug to begin with Installed an Oceans Motions Not bought a Diamond Goby Bought a canopy with much more room for better lighting Bought good in sump skimmer as opposed to HOB crap Found this message board for learning before...

True, but the original question was answered and maybe he learned even more than he bargined for. Isn't that why you read these?

I'm not 100% sure about ammonia, but vinegar is definitely harmless.
