I know there has been much debate on this subject, and a reefers worst nightmare is bringing a new fish into a trouble free reef and having an Ich breakout. Quarenteen is the answere that makes the most sence to me. So, here"s the question. Is it true that fish have ich on them all the time like...

Thought I was really stepping up abouta year ago when I went from a 150g glass to 252g acrylic. The cool thing about acrylic is looking at all the new scratches that the tank is getting weekly. Deosnt matter how extra careful you are or what you use to keep it clean. Wonder what it will look...

I cant believe I didnt think of this before, but I'm sure I'm not the first. As far as top off devices go. Instead of losing money on a for sure fail water top off at thye lfs. Go to any hardware store and get a float valve for a toilet, they will rarely fail and can easily handle the water...

Thats why I was whining, the products that I bought were top of the line

Well Maxalmon, I'd say you've got the right idea. I know better than to not expect failures. It just gets a little frustrating when you pay 200$ for premium product like a heater and it goes bad I dont live in an area where things are close by so back-up is really important for me. As far as the...

I gotta say the one thing that will finally get my goat and run me away from this hobbie is product failures! Ive had salt-water for about 15yrs and reef tanks for about 12yrs and totally love the art of it all. My curresnt reef is 252gal with a dual sump system that adds another110gal or so. A...

I gota tell ya this is the one area I will claim to be somewhat of an expert, though the zebra may survive in your reef. They will not thrive, they do not care for the bright lights in a reef. I kept zebras for years and they love a tank with no light at all except the light coming in from the...

never put MH above the center brace at any height trust me you'll be sorry. The next thing that will happen is the center brace will crack from the inside corner of the brace to the front of the tank and the same in the back on the opposite side. Your only hope is more air movement. Dont give up...

Here's the cure-all I posted originally way back. If your algea problem is fixed by adding a lawnmower blenny or a seahair trust me, you may have some algea but you dont have a real problem Here's my algea 101 rant I'm gonna give you my advise on the nasty hair algae curse. Not everone will...

They will fight each other, especially if there large. Happened to me years ago they actually tilted and faced each other I wish I had a pic :notsure:

I've been curious about the mud myself, I cant reaally see what the mud has to offer that we arent already keeping up to par with water changes and calcium drip or reactor, you certainly dont need it keep your sump full of greens. I wonder what Bang Guys opinion is

Rick280, thats an amazing display I'd also like to say thats about the nicest set of tangs I've ever seen, whats your secret for the health of the naso and the acillies

good grief

Murph, thats some nice work! I really like the clam and the cute little frag hanger. How bigs the tank and what kinda lights?

I need some cheese to go with my wine. Trying to keep the acrylic clean is my least favorite thing to do, and it is so easy to scratch even being careful

the clove polyps pictured remind me of pipe organ coral :notsure:

Thanks guys. Hey your from Maine right?

ZMAN1 got it, well here it is! The 10 dollar kalk dripper! With the stand its sturdy, but yet easy to take bottle off for a hose out cleaning. It holds exactly five gallons for easy measuring. The sewer drain cleanout on top gives easy access. Kinda funny when the wife asked where the water...

It is definatly reef tank related, but not fish only tank related , it could work as a back scratcher a little on the heavy duty side :notsure:
