I have about 3 different types of SPS in my tank along with a few different colonies of frogspawn and a torch coral and also some other misc. things like a clam, and a few softies.
So what has been going on is I have a 250W MH over my 50 gal. tank. The 20k bulb I had in there was about a year...
The windex on a towel or rag does work, But I have found a way that works without any glass cleaner. Take a damp towel or rag (100% cotton) I say this because my tank is acrylic, and wash off all the salt spots and whatever else might be on the outside of the tank. Now you will be left with a...
Good news, the anemone seems like its pulling itself back together, I am not so sure how long until he is healthy again, i'd guess a while, I did a 5 gallon water change to get the water quality as high as i can during this critical period. Thanks rlablan fer the idea, i'll give it a try and...
thanks for the reply, He is holding onto the rock and moves a little bit so I don't want to flush him yet, but I don't want to wake up in the morning to find him stuck to the powerhead again from floating around
I walked into my room about 5 minutes ago and saw my GBTA stuck to the front of my mp20. I quickly pulled him off and set him on the rock. he is in tough shape. its like the middle of his body was chopped up all the way through to his mouth. he did attach to the rock but he looks like a doughnut...
ok, thanks for the help... my next question is, How do I hang it? I do not have a hood for my tank, and if possible, I would like to find a way to hang it without one
I have a 50 Gallon "Show" tank, 30 wide X 18 long X 18 deep. I currently have a 24in. NOVA VHO (4 bulb, 2 actinic, 2 10K). I am buying a coralife 250W pendant MH for the tank. I was wondering if it would be a good idea to run both the lights together? I also dont know much about metal halides...
My mom went on vacation and she brought me back as a gift, a rock from the shore for my tank. The rock looks close to the other rocks in my tank so it would fit nicely. But the rock was under water on the shore so i'm guessing, living in the rock there are thousands if not millions of living...
I have moved the torch to a location around the back bottom of the tank where she does not touch it, it has been about 24hours now since i have moved it, i'll give it a couple days and see if there is improvement, if there is then i will move it back and if the clown hosts it again i might have...
No, she pretty much dominates the other clown, but she does sleep in my torch coral and burries herself in between the skeloton of it, maybe thats it, i took it out and i'll see if it gets better, but if anyone has any other ideas let me know....
my clownfish has an open soar on the right side of his body, it started out looking like agetated skin about 2 weeks ago and now it looks like a gash, any ideas?
ok....another queston- Just to clarify, i have 2 clowns (false perc) and 3 anemones (1 RBTA, 2 GBTA) a torch and a frogspawn and other stuff BUT... my larger clown is hosting my torch...still. but the torch seems to be doing alright so far, so i'm just going to let it fly until she starts being...
