Those were above the sand so I could see root growth but they are presently in the sand and onlt the stem and leaves can be seen. As far as nitrate removal it should make no difference but I have mine mainly for looks as I have not seen any dramatic change in nitrates by using them. Althogh the...

I started mine by keeping the roots just above the sand and letting them grow into the sand so I could see their progress but when i moved aquariums I just planted their roots directly into the sand. They look better when you can see some root above the sand though. Ocasionally if any of mine...

I am presently usig a Fuji S602Z and it is a nice camers but was wanting to get something new and I am in need of help. Can someone tell me what is the best digital for clear, sharp aquarium photos. Under $1500.00 What do you use Ryebread? Thanks for any help. Also any pictures would be great...

The top portion of the mangrove where it changes color should be above the water. From my experience the majority of the roots grow in the sand in a controlled aquarium system since there is no rise and fall of the tides daily.

When I first started mine I used a piece of eggcrate set across the top of my refugium and put the mangroves through the holes in the eggcrate to support them until their roots are long enough to reach the bottom and to keep them upright and above the water surfface. You can use a piece og...

A group of blacks will eventually kill each other until there is only one left. They are not a fish that tends to school. It is very rare that a group can be kept together.

Sounds like a Guinea puffer to me.

I agree with broomer. Besides being a mechanic I am also a liscenced electrician and you need to ground your tank to protect yourself and your fish. I too had a pump fail and when I touched the water I suddenly became the short to ground and got a nice shock from it. It was not fun. How long the...
