Alright, my tank 20 gal tank has been up for over 2 months now. I used to a PH of around 8.0 average. The last 2 weeks its been going from 8.0-8.8 and the average is 8.4. Is this normal to see that much of a range in a days time? I checked this morning and the PH was 8.8 at 11 am. I had no...

I've noticed that in the past few weeks. I usually do that, but I'm always worried about a new addition. So far I haven't noticed him messing with any of my hermit crabs or my cleaner shrimp. I hope he stays that way or he might have to go.

I just dropped some flakes in and I noticed he took one that was moving across the bottom of the tank. He's only been in the tank for about a week so he's still pretty shy. I'm guessing that plays a big part in why I haven't seen him take any. I only noticed becuase I stepped back a ways to...

Does anyone have a neon dottyback in their tank? If so is it accepting flake food? I'm going on vacation at the end of october for a week and I'm trying to figure out if I can get by with a feeder or if I will have to have someone come in and feed for me. Right now I have a bunch of different...

Your not kidding that it's huge. I bought one for and its on a 20 gal right now. I only bought it because I'm getting a bigger tank. Its funny because when I set it up, I looked at my skimmer and thought " Oh Crap" Oh well, I'll be getting a 46 in a week. It may be alot, but it is doing...

I'm from Kenosha.

Lisa, where at in sconsin are you located?

One last question for you. Would 1 MH be enough for a 46 gal tank with some PC lights. Or should I go with 2 so I can have some corals?

can you email me link to a site with that setup? All i've found are 1 MH light in the 36" fixtures. Thanks

I guess I should talk to my apartment manager. Do you have any suggestions on a couple good MH setups that I can look at? Would it be a bad idea to get an aqualight pro setup that is 48" long and has 2 150W MH and 2 96W actinic bulbs. Or should I get the 36" which is what the length of the...

Ok. Thanks Beth!

I have a pair of clown fish and so far I have not found any ich on them. I've had them for 3 weeks now. Today I noticed that on different occasions, each one doing it seperately, that they go down to the sand and its like they scratch the side of there head/body on the sand. I've seen them...

I guess I'm just really confused. I'm going to be working on a 46 Gal bow reef tank. I can get a 384 W compact light fixture to set on top. I've also seen a similar setup with 2 compact actinic bulbs and a 150 Mh light. Watt / Gal, the first option has more than the 2nd with the MH light...

It has only been used for about 2 weeks. I'm gonna just wait a while before figuring out what I'm gonna do. Patience is such a key to this that I'll just have to wait :) Thanks everyone.

I was being somewhat sarcastic. No rudeness or anything intended though. I'm just kicking myself right now for buying it.

Heh, thanks Vanos. I feel alot better now. Oh well, I think I'll just put it in a box and maybe sell it. Thanks.

The reason it came loose the first time is because I was stupid and did not realize i had a plastic mount for it to hang on the edge of the tank. I guess you learn the hard way sometimes. I just hope it doesn't happen again. I'm making an adjustment on the intake so if it does, I won't have...

Has anyone had the Turbo Twist UV sterilizer fall off the back of their tank? I found the mounting bracket to hang it off the tank not long after I had the suction cup mount fall loose and spill most of my tank water. I'm a little nervous to hook the thing back up with the fear of it falling...

Are there any MH that i can mount over my tank with some sort of mounting legs? Also thank you for the replies back.

Hello, Currently i have a 20 Gal tank with and i'm wondering if a 130W compact light setup with Sunpaq dual 6700/10000 bulb, a Dual Actinic 460nm/420nm bulb, and 2 3/4 W lunar lights. I'm also debating on going to a 46 gal bow tank and the same company has a 384W compact light setup with the...
