    Green Goniopora Dying?

    if the clown stops bothering it, then it could grow back no problem. you test almost all of what you need to and that is good. defintely get an Alk test as that is very important for coral health, mag is secondary. unfortunately it might not be the clown as your problem but the tank size...

    Aqua C EV 180

    i have the 180, i use the rio3100 only because i already owned the pump. if i had to purchase a new pump for it, i would likely get the mag 7, as they are constructed with higher quality and have less issues (although i have had no issues with my rio, i have seen people post about the rios being...

    Green Goniopora Dying?

    a few thoughts. 1) Gonios have a poor track record. usually the only ones that do well are in very large tanks. a lot is still unkown about this animal. 2) clowns attempting to host corals can easily bother and kill of coral flesh of many types of corals and feather dusters. i have seen it a...

    Saltn00b's Multi-Phase Upgrade Diary!

    UPDATES 1) Skimmer I had noticed a massive decrease in foam production in my EV-180 skimmer for months. this went hand in hand with the removal of my fish to clear out the Ick infestation from back in July, as expected. However, since returning the survivors and adding a few new fish, the...

    Chemi-Pure

    well, thats not what this thread was about. yes carbon helps reduce toxins, but if you think that close proximity inter-coral chemical warfare does not and can not happen if you run some carbon, you are surely mistaken.

    - wrasse expertise, please -

    this is an old thread - from last march... unfortunately this fish is in a better place now. but yes, it was normal. some wrasses burrow in the sand, and some find a hiding spot and stay in a coccoon.

    Stupid Tangs and their ick

    unfortunately that wont last long. these fish will quickly outgrow that tank. Tangs are ocean-going fish that need a minimum of 6' of swimming space. good luck.
