alright since last post the nem has moved from the top of the tank to the bottom and is going underneath a rock, are these signs of him getting ready to split?

just wondering if i can expect my nem to split any time soon? i had the nem under pc's and recently replaced them with a 175 watt mh retro. under the pc's the nem went attatched himself to the glass right at water level to get the most light possible. under the mh he is doing much better, no...

i just put a 175 watt mh light over my 29 gallon reef. i had pc's on it previously. i now run the mh about 4 hours a day to acclimate the coral to the new lighting. all corals look fine except a kenya tree that flourished under the pc's is now not opening up all the way and looks sad. i put him...

ok thanks, it is middle of the way up the tank

i just bought this ora red montipora and i know that you can identify growth with the white out on the edges. its been in the tank for almost a week now and im just wondering if there is any way to be able to identify if it is going good and i can expect growth. it is under a 175 watt mh in a 29...

alright, i have had pc's on my 29 gallon reef for almost a year. after learning more about reef keeping, have decided that my gbta needed more light. so i got some a 175 watt metal halide to hang from my tank. Q. The anemone is stuck to the glass right at the surface of the water at the top of...

i have a 29 gallon tank just traded an old tank with a bunch of stuff for dual 175 watt mh lighting (hamilton lights, spider reflectors) wondering what limitations if any i would have with corals? thanks in advance!

really? is that how some people do it? just suspend chains form the ceiling?

ok thats fine, im not crazy about making sure i have a canopy, i just dont know how else to hang it above the tank? suggestions?

thanks for all the great info! yeah i thought 2 would be a bit much, ill just hang the one. i don't have a canopy, and i don't really know much about em. could i just buy one from a lfs and hang it from that? im confused though on that because i don't think it will give enough room to hang the...

ok thanks so much! i really appreciate all the feedback! you have all saved me from a silly mistake!

yeah i did think about that with the heat, i thought that maybe if i put a chiller in there along with a small clip on fan or two that it would disperse the heat enough? thanks for the comment though, im just hoping that maybe it would work

hey all, ok, i have a friend that had a bearded lizard in a 50 gallon tank, the lizard just died of old age, and he said he would sell me that tank, stand, decor, and light for $300. my question is, he said that the light was meant for a lizard tank. it is a 50 gallon aquarium tank for fish. i...
