    Stuff that looks like insulation on my lr

    I haven't even upgraded the lighting yet. That is next. But I did change the hood so more light is going into the tank. I changed to lr and dsb about a month ago. I have seen it growing all around in different areas. Not a ton yet, but I just don't want it to be all over if it's not good.

    Stuff that looks like insulation on my lr

    Me again. Every time I look at my tank lately I have more questions! Does anyone know what stuff could be growing on my live rock that looks like insulation kinda? It's not growing flat on the rock - it sticks out. I am seeing it more and more. I have snails and crabs and they do not go...

    Help! I found a worm!

    I found a worm and I don't know what it is! Can my feather dusters come out of that thing there in? It is brown. It has a flat body but the top of it is round. It's head looks very strange. It doesn't even really look like a head. My feather dusters aren't really acting like I think they...

    Feather Dusters

    Thanks! I put them on the lr, but the sallylight foot was bugging one of them. Is that a bad thing. It isn't anymore for the moment. Thanks again.

    Feather Dusters

    I just got my order today from saltwater.com! It was a clean up crew. I love it. Everything so far looks so great! BUT-I bought three feather dusters and, like an idiot, I had no idea what they were. So, do I have to do anything special I should know about for them? They are not on any...

    ANYONE know a Home Depot that has southdown?

    I have sent a couple people the Southdown sand but you would have to pay for the shipping. I would need your zip code to tell you the amount for shipping. My E-Mail address is mfoti@rochester.rr.com. Just let me know.

    clean up crew

    Thanks. I was hoping it would be. I thought if they sell them all together that it should be, but I wasn't sure. Thanks again.

    clean up crew

    When my 75 gal. tank that I put lr in is ready, should I put a clean up crew package in or is that a lot to put in all at the same time? It's a bunch of crabs and shrimp and snails and cucumbers. If I order them I do not want to pay shipping over and over again so I would do a package. I am...

    ammonia level after new lr

    Hi everyone. It's only been nine days sense I put 100lbs. of lr in my 75 gal. tank. (My fish are in another tank for now!) I know to be patient, I'm just wondering if everything is going okay. My ammonia level is in the death zone. Very high. Is this right? Is there anything I can do to...

    I switched yesturday from cc to dsb!!!

    It was a lot of work!!! I did it and I think it is going to be so cool! I switched from cc and fish only to dsb (170lbs of sand) and 100 lbs. of live rock. I took my fish and put them in another tank so they wouldn't be too stressed. I hope they make it. I took out the water and ditched the...

    lights on or off for lr

    I am going to be getting my lr today from saltwater.com I have heard both ways to go and I'm wondering do you leave your lights on or shut them off for awhile? I think most of you said to leave them on. Is that okay when they say you should be leaving them off for awhile? Thanks!
