Viper, thanks for the reply. I sure hope that is what happens because it is a beautiful pink and about 3 inches tall. I am really stressed and do not want to lose it. I will keep watch on my water and keep the Calcium around 420-430 in hopes that will help.. I dose DT's too, will that help...

I just made the worst mistake of my short saltwater experience and need help asap! While trying to place my new Acropra millipora my hand slipped while pushing his base into a crevice and broke him off about 1/2 inch above the base. I immediately glued the top broken piece to a piece of LR...

OK Bang guy set me straight on this one: yes do water changes it will not slow down your cycle. You will preserve more life in your tank by doing water changes, once you spike ammonia over .2 your cycle has started and high ammonia will kill off some beneficial life. That is the short of what...

NM, pictures of your tank have been my inspiration from day one 5 months ago starting my tank. I think we all envision our tanks becoming something like yours, at least I know I did. No matter how many pics I see of your tank I can never get enough of oohing and ahing over them, showing my...

Let him be for a while and se how it does. Mine took 3 days to get acclimated and now is going strong. They are tough corals give him a bit and make sure your water parameters are stable. HTH

They DO MOVE! I put mine right where I wanted them and by the next morning they had moved over 2 inches and were firmly attached! I think dburr's idea is the best.

My Male Lyretail Female And the trio Love the Anthias!

Went to a great new store today, Premier Fish & Reef! Been open about 2 months. Great selection of corals, clams (the BEST I have seen in Denver). Great prices on almost all fish, tons of fairy wrasses and a mystery wrasse. I got a 3 1/2 inch Powder Blue Tang for $47. Will Lundquist runs the...

I have only been in the hobby for 5 months but have found that I get the best results from Kent and Tropic Marin. I will only use those brands from now on. All my parameters are stable with these salts, pH was always low with IO.

The most I have spent is $40 on a sweet Radiant Wrasse. Love him, eating the baby bristle worms like nobodies business. The owner of one of the LFS here spent $1200 on a 2" Gem tang, saw him the other day, pretty cool. But $1200! No Way.

Hi, don't worry just yet it took my anthias a few days to start eating. I did what JJ said and used Garlic extreme. I soaked mysis in it for a few hours and they went nuts for it, even put some garlic into the tank. Then I soaked my flake in it and they started to eat that as well. Try...

Being a newb I think that is a great idea for knowledge shareing and general info.

Dmitry, yes he is quite small about 2" and so is my Maxima, they both attached to the rock in less than 24hrs! I was told they do better on rock so I put them where I wanted them and the Crocea wiggled down the rock and the Maxima up the rock. I am just wondering how they will grow where they...

True percs took about 15minutes to host my RBTA when I got it.

Thanks guys that is what I thought, not going to try to move him. Larry, I don't think moving the rock will help because he just out on the end of it. Oh well I figure in the wild they do this and survive so I will watch and see how he does.

Hey I got a crocea clam about 2" long ang georgeous! Problem is is that where I put him he wiggled his way down the rock some and now is firmly attached!! And he did it in just 24hrs! Is there anyway to get his foot off so I can move him up? I don't want to hurt him but I want him in a safer...

Mine litteraly MOWED down the hair algae, now he eats algea sheets and grazes on the LR. He is very peacful and hangs with my Mimic blenny sometimes. My wife said he looks like a muppet so that is his name.. Muppet

Hey Tyler, great to hear you are up and running. Love the clowns, wish I had got black percs myself. Get a blenny they have great personalities! I have a Red Sea Mimic Blenny and love him. Other cool ones are Bicolor blennies. I would wait a while on the Coral Beauty but deffinately get one...

JacknJill, being as they are the first bulbs I have tried I like them and have no complaints with them. The light is very white, but I figured that I would use the 10k's first for better coral growth (at least that is what I have heard), and when I need to change I am going to try the XM 15k's...

Possibly a Queen Conch. I have 4 fighting conchs in my 120. They do a great job cleaning the sand. Look cool with just their eyes poking out of the sand.
