    nitrates and algea

    Xenia also like some nitrates but you still need to get the nitrates way down, IMO at the level you are now you are going to "burn" even some of the hardier corals.

    nitrates and algea

    Also test your water source, test before mixing the salt. Might be your water source has nitrates. I would also recommend testing for phosphates those are probably high to. What substrate are you using? If you are using CC I would switch to sand. I spent years trying to get my nitrate down and...

    Not new at this, just EXTREMELY STUPID!!!

    Just so you know you are not the only one to mistake one bottle for another, a friend of mine spent the night in the hospital because bottles of nail glue are the same shape and size of the re-wetting solution for contacts! It wasnt pretty!

    Hex Tank Owners - Please respond

    I guess the best way to describe the way my 35 gal hex i setup is - I put a stonehenge type circle up and then laid a piece on the top to create an "open" cave in the middle. The fish really seem to like it. Plus my lower light corals have a nice placement for their needs but I still get a good...

    Lunare Wrasse, and Orange spotted Filefish-READ

    Lunare Wrasse love Shrimp, thats their favorite food. Seriously, Lunare Wrasse are one of my favorite fish. I had one for 3 years with a snowflake eel. Needless to say no crabs or shrimp living in that tank. Lunare's are also territorial so be careful what you do put in with it.

    Pistol Shrimp

    Depending on the size of the pistol they are quite loud. But after awhile you really get used to the sound you dont really notice it. As for digging it is a continuous process they really don't ever quit. I havent had mine topple any big structures of liverock but have to continually rescue...
