I have a 40 gal I was going to make into a sump/fuge too. I thought the LR rubble went in with the macro algae. Is it better to put it before the skimmer? This is my concept below.

OK. So far we have... 1. Adjust air conditioning vents to blow on tank 2. Substitute "egg crate" for glass tops 3. Fan blowing across tank and/or sump 4. Bottles of frozen RO floating in sump Phil G it is now your turn to shine! :joy: What cha got?

Grocery store by the ethnic foods - chinese. They come in a flat plastic bag. Not every store will carry them.

I looked at the video and at first I wanted to try to find that person and make him take that fish out of there. As I watched the video I found out that the tiny space the fish is in is a holding bin like they use in a LFS to put a just caught fish in. The holding bin looks like it is in a...

First let me say that I have only been into saltwater for 4 months. Before that I was into freshwater for 5-6 years. I bought a complete 58 reef on an auction site. It came with a salifin tang, in addition to other live stock. I put everything into a 75 and he has been doing fine. I have...

Thanks TX. I though that might be the case at first but I gave them 6 weeks to adjust and they all stayed the way I described. Did I not give them enough time?

Have to get my 2 cents in. I had my 75 going with T5's. It was Nova Extreme brand with 8X54 watt bulbs for a total of 432 watts. I had to take it of the tank because it was to strong for what I had; Leather coral, Colt coral, Shrooms, anemones and fish. Polyps harding came out on the leather...

I have a 58 and a 75 running with a plenum and a DSB. I read about this set up on the GARF .org website and in some newer books on aquariums. It has been working very well for me so far. I have only had these tanks running for 3.5 months. When I stack my LR I try to make a lot of...

I have two very large Coral Banded shrimp in my 75 and they seem to be no problem. Have you caught yours doing something to the fish? I read that rarely they will clean fish just like the skunk shrimp will. Mine don't. They just walk around like they own the place but I've never seen them...

Nice! How long have you had the tank up? Have the clowns started hosting the anemone yet? Any plans on future additions? If you would like some constructive suggestions read below else stop here. Cut out the dark/black first portion of the video. Since there is also audio add some talking or...

I have pink skunk clowns and it took them about 6 weeks before they came out of the corner of my 58. I don't have any big fish in there with them though. I even had to net them out of my internal overflow. The smallest one I had to rescue three times. The other just once. Then I put my...

Can you cut a hole in any tank? I thought the bottom glass in a tank was hardened some how?

Thanks, Israel P. I have to know. Did you try it yet? Did it work?

Looks like I have a frilly mushroom. :jumping: I'll have to get a few more and maybe a new camera. Hope I can afford both. Thanks everyone!!

Where can I go to see pics of the ricordia and mushrooms you talked about? BTW. Promisetbg - What kind of camera do you have to get such good pics?

Yes it does stay in one spot. It dosen't look anything like your cucumber. I know the pic is really bad. It is round like a mushroom but is more bumpy like a carpet anemone. I took another pic. Hope it is better. Alright----I really suck at pictures.

This is a really bad picture but it's the best I can do with my old camera. Please try to figure out what it is if you can.

About 4 months ago a bought a tank, equipment, live rock and inhabitants from a person. They couldn't tell me what this creature is but I really like it. I dont think it's an anemone because I can't find a mouth. It has grown from a dime size to a bit bigger than a silver dollar size. Any...

Maybe you can try this. "Ok dear, I will put all the sand in the middle and put the things that need sand there. But I will have to build a rock retaining wall to keep the sand in the middle or, like in the ocean, the sand will drift. To build the wall I will need to get live rock and put...
