If I can remember correctly the mandrin produces that slime coat when stressed and during inactivity. Philip

Thanks, I forget the entire amount but the sump with everything in there has cost me an estimated $9,000 (this is also including the chiller and UV in the back room). Philip

The canister on the far left is a Deltec Kalk Stirrer which incoperates kalk into the tank whenever it tops it's self off. The other two are Deltec Fluidized Reactors. You can put any type of media that you want into them, they are just very expensive phosbans. Personally I am putting carbon...

Thanks a million. The snails are white in color and no more than a few millimeters, but the crocea clam in the tank is fine and doing better than ever. The only thing that is getting affected is the sps. The zoos are doing just fine as well. The snails are also all over the tank, not just...

Hey everyone I have a very serious question for you all: How do you get rid of the small sps eating snails? I have them all over my 120 and that is the rock I want to use for the 210 and want to be able to restock the 210 with sps. Please respond as quickly as possible and all comments are...

Hey everyone, its been a while since I last posted here. Last time I was setting up my 210gal tank, and well since then I have changed the design. The "old" oceanic sump has come out and has been replaced by a new custom made sump. I plan on having water in the tank by next weekend. I will...

Originally Posted by Bang Guy I'm not familiar with a white coral eating snail. Do you have a pic? Have you actually seen damage? No they are too small for me to get a pic. I do not have a good enough micro nikon lens to get a pic. Yes, I have seen a LOT of damage! They have killed a...

Well I am not such a newbie but have a question I need solved quickly so no more happens. I have the tiny little white sps and zoo eating snails. They are ALL OVER my tank and don't know how to get rid of them. I have lots of sps and my whole entire zoo collection in the tank, and no place...

Very cool. Not very often one gets video taped. Philip

I like the 59s but they are just cruziers and I love muscle cars. Philip
