Hey guys, I have a serious problem with my calcium levels. Its a 1 year old tank and I have never been able to get my calcium above 320-340. my ph is 8.0-8.2 consistently, my kh runs consistently 10-12 drops and I haven't tested alkalinity. I do use a superbuffer from kent regularly, I have...

just a stab in the dark, but how did you acclimate your tang???

Once you put the extra 50-100lbs of rock in, it will overload your tank and will need to cycle again, If your planning on putting fish in right away, i would stick with one fish at a time and increase your liverock slowly adding only a few pounds at a time, I STRONGLY back up golfin on this one...

I bought a torch coral from lfs at a bargain of 5 dollars. obviously not looking good for the torch, he was very stringy and had a couple of dead heads. When I got him home, i clipped all of his dead heads and I am hoping for the best. What steps should I take to revive him, if possible. My...

I just wanted to say that I consider myself fairly new to marine setups. I have had my 25 gal aquarium set up for roughly 1 year now and I have read numerous books, spent countless hours picking the brains of many of the different LFS in my area and have spent much of my time researching the...

Hey guys, I have heard mixed opinions on wet dry systems, I have just received a small HOT wet dry system with a built in skimmer. Currently I have a 25 gal nano reef with the eclipse 2 system and was wondering if I should use the wet dry system instead. I have heard that wet dry systems are a...

Hey guys, before I go to LFS to purchase my ocellaris' I was curious on encouraging breeding. I want to buy a couple of tank raised so they will have a better chance with a coral host. Do I just buy to small clowns and introduce them to the tank at the same time, or do I buy one small and one...

I'm definately going to do the dogface, i absolutely love their presence; and I definatelt want to do some sort of eel. I'm just afraid that if I just do those two, the rest of my tank would feel empty. I'm kinda throwing the lion trigger and tang in there as fillers so if they won't do well...

Tell me what you think 1-Dogface puffer 1-Bluethroat trigger 1-Goldentail moray 1-Blonde Naso 1-Volitan Lion Would that work in my 90???

I am looking to start up a 90 gal aggressive, what would you guys reccommend?? I personally like lions, triggers, or puffers but am not sure what will go well together in a 90.

A puffer won't do well in a 90??? That sucks!! I do want aggressive fish, what do you reccommend for a 90?? I don't have the money to upgrade right now, and i probably won't be going any bigger with my tank any time soon. I don't mind all too much upgrading my filtration, just not the tank right...

Hey guys!! I'm looking to convert my 90 gal fresh to a fish only salt with only a dog face puffer and maybe a tang or trigger or so. I am curious about only having one emperor 400 with a powerhead on the opposite side. Will this provide adequate filtration with biweekly water changes??? It...
