    Feather Duster???

    I just went out and looked...and now the worm is out of the tube and crawling around on my sand bed. Thats probably why he pushed his crown out, he was coming too! I put the tube down on the sand near him so he can go back into it if he wants. Is any of this normal??? :confused: :confused...

    how do i get coriline algea to grow in my tank

    How long have you been using the purple up? I am using it right now and it is doing WONDERS for my coraline algae growth. I'd say it took about 2-3 weeks to start seeing it on my lr, but it finally did. My glass and plastics are covered and have been...and it's finally making my rock pretty...

    Flame Angel

    I've wanted a Flame Angel for sometime and my lfs told me tonight that he would be fine. The thing is, it's an expensive lesson at 65$ to find out otherwise. I have seen in one or more places that he is reef safe, but my worries is with the other tank mates. Here is a stock list and please...

    Lighting help!

    I know this is going to sound dumb, but I don't know how to set my lights to come on automatically. They came with the tank that I bought used, so I'm not real sure how to set the timer. The people I bought it off of said that they had the timer set so the lights come on at a certain time and...

    Are CamelBack Shrimp reef safe

    Camelbacks are actually not reef safe. I used to have 2 and they ate my yellow polyps. I called my lfs and they gave me a couple bucks for each one...catching them was another story. I have a 90 gallon reef with 140 lbs of lr so they had PLENTY of places to hide and run to when daddy came...
