    MUSHROOMS

    KYRED1, What size tank is yours? 2x45 watt shop lights should be good enough, depending on the size. Right now, I only have a 15 watt bulb on my 20 & my shrooms are doing great...... I just ordered a PC light strip off of ----. If you are wanting to upgrade, check out the pc lights on ----...

    MUSHROOMS

    Mine did the exact same thing. Give them a while to open up....... I bought a colony of blue mushrooms at a lfs about 3 weeks ago, and finally last week, they opened up completely. What is your salinity? Keep them in low current, too. Don't worry...... they will be fine. Also, could you...

    Are damsel's too small for this ...

    I cycled my 125 with damsels. I kept all but 3. I'm down to 1 after I lost 2 after a battle with ich, and he's a blue one. He's not aggressive at all.

    the nitrate plague, HELP AGAIN!!

    Do you have bio-balls in your wet/dry by any chance? If you do, try taking those out to see if your nitrates lower. I had a canister on my tank, and ended up ditching it because of the excess red slime, which is caused by nitrates. I know that since taking it off, I have no more problems. I...

    what color is playsand

    I bought white playsand from HD, but it's silica not Southdown (they dont sell it in AZ). I've had it in my tank for about a month now. I seeded it with livesand, too.

    red slime algea

    Tropical Sciences makes phosphate pads specifially designed for removing hair algae and cyano. I bought a pack that contained 2 pads, and a powder substance and it worked fine. Also, do you have a canister filter? I had a Fluval 404 hooked up until last night & I finally took it off. Lots...

    I have a bunch, too, and from what I've been told is that they are tiny filter feeders. I think they are called spiroids (sp?) Are yours hard or soft?

    Quickrete Play Sand is fine for tank?

    I don't have quickrete, but I do have the white playsand from Home Depot. It's made by Paragon Industries, I believe, and it is silica. I didn't buy the quickrete because I wasn't too fond of the color. I really am happy with the other stuff, though..... it is a nice white color. I also...

    Protein Skimmer Needed?

    I've got a question about having multiple skimmers: I have a Prizm on my 125, and don't have the money to upgrade to a better skimmer at this time. So, I thought of buying another Prizm and putting it on the other side of my tank ..... Would that work? Would it take the pressure off (help the...

    Yellow Tang turning white, what's wrong?

    As much as I like my yellow tang, it can be a real PITA, especially when adding new live rock or a fish. It always freaks out for about a day, then calms down. The last time I added LR, it went nuts, and yesterday I added a diamond goby and it did the same thing. I don't think it likes...

    HD sand

    I'd like to increase my sandbed from 2 inches, and make it between 4 -6 inches deep. Unfortunately, I live in AZ and they don't sell Southdown. Lowe's carries Quikrete playsand, but I'm not toooo fond of the color. I went to HD today and they have some white play sand made by Paragon...

    Live Rock!!!!!!!

    I think I have 2 baby feather dusters on my piece of rock, but not sure ..... they are soooo tiny, but look like them. On the same piece, I have a blue thing, that is outlined in black, that I guess is a sponge? I noticed a bright orange thing on my newest piece of LR that you can see at...
