Been wanting to get one for awhile but I hear nothing but bad things about them. Only live for a month...water temp changes .5 degrees and they get ick...bunch of bad stuff. Any advice???? If you have one, how long have you had it??? How do you keep it happy??? What do you feed it...
Yo. Always wanted to know. What are the little critters that sometimes get caught in the pre-filter of the overflow to my wet-dry filter. What the heck are they? They look like little brine shrimp...but alive. And if they are very bad, please let me know how I can take care of them.
I've had a green finger leather for quite sometime now. I made a trip to China for three weeks and went over everthing with my roommates about additives and feeding. Everything I felt they needed to know. Any ways, my finger leather looks alive, but does not really open up anymore. What...
Thanks for the reply Sam. I already have my reef tank cycled for a year now. Have 6 fish in there now. Just didn't know how much more I can add. Thanks for the input though.
How many fish can you technically put in a reef tank? I've heard 1 inch per 2.5 gallons, including inverts like starfish. Not including corals. Fact or fiction?
And I forgot. Very good clean-up crew. 3 dozen turbos, dozen trochus, 3 dozen red baha hermits, 2 dozen black and white hermits, few sally light foots, and some miscellaneous items.
It's a 125 reef with about 110lbs LR. Feed fish once a day. Readings: pH-8.2, Ammonia-0, Nitrite-0, Nitrates-less than 10. Temp about 80F. I have a RO filter and make my own water. What else do you need to know? I know I need to add more LR. Anything else?
I have a slight problem with green algae on the glass. My snails can't keep up and it takes forever to get scrap it off. What causes this particular algae. Phosphates? I don't think it's nitrates because I tested my water and they are very low which is good. Help?
