    do i need 100 snails and crabs?

    Your cleanup crew is also algae control. Your skimmer is algae control as well. If you have a really aggressive skimmer you do not need the 1 to 1.5 janitors per gallon. Get a good mixture (40) of Cerith snails, Nerite snails and a couple margarita snails. And get about half as many (20)...

    Does Pom Pom Xenia grow fast and do they eventually cause a problem?

    For some people they grow like weeds, for others they don't. They don't really come off the rocks and turn to much when you pull on them so if they attach to something you're going to have to chip the rock to get it off. (Just like anything I guess) But if you leave the slightest bit on the rock...

    Blue and Marble mushrooms

    I can't pm you now for some reason and I cannot view the php address on my work computer here. Could I get a picture emailed or PM me? I have some peanut butter cup zoanthids. Maybe we could just trade for a couple shrooms.

    Yea, Maroons can be a handfull. They are strong ******** decorators and always the king of the tank. (in their minds at least)

    Shallow frag tank light

    I honestly think I'm going to focus on zoanthids and LPS for the first tank. If I have room I'll set up a second for SPS. Two different systems. It's for the fun of fraging and for studying really. I'll probably want to keep light a constant between the two so probably a 400 watt on the...

    So im setting up a 55 gallon and im wondering what the fastest growing coral is

    Get a huge toadstool or some leather. Not as fast of a grower but twice the shower you could get a real nice hammer, frogspawn or torch.

    Shallow frag tank light

    Well if I have a pendant trying to cover the 16 sq. feet then 2 foot above would be needed. I would like to have only one. Would a 250 be enough at 2 feet above the water?

    Shallow frag tank light

    I'm planning for the future. What power light would you say to put over a 48" x 48" x 10". What about a 48" x 48" x 8"? I was thinking a 400 watt MH pendant would do the trick fine.

    Trading frags to the LFS

    I know it depends on what it is. I talked to him last night and he know's he can sell the GSP. He has a lot of new customers so I'm thinking of taking in both patches of my GSP. I've got some smaller pieces that will eventually grow to the obnoxious size again. I don't have any money to spend...

    ***I'm about to kill these snails***

    I wouldn't kill them. Give them away to take them to the LFS. Get a couple bucks off your next purchase if nothing else.

    Trading frags to the LFS

    There is a lot of trading that goes on over the internet but what about the LFS? I'm about to start taking items back there. What kind of return should I expect in store credit. Probably more in credit than if I wanted cash I'm sure. I took 120 lbs or rock back and got $3/lb. If I take a piece...

    How to get rid of mushrooms???

    Pull a rock out and spend some time with a little chisel. One at a time and then they won't be free floating. They will have a little chunk of rock they are attached to.

    i think i'm quitting after this...

    Me telling you a bad story isn't going to help so all I have to say is do a water change asap and get that temp back to normal. you'd be suprised as to what is still alive and will come back. Many things can survive with the smallest spec of flesh still alive and regenerate their whole body again.
