IS everyone sure this is enough light ? I have a 75 gal with 2 -250 watts. If his tank is that big with only 2- 150s that only 300 total for a much larger tank

Sounds like the best bet may be to try a coral beauty. I already have corals and the tank is quite established, so maybe I will have some luck. The pain is if I have to take him out without breaking down the whole darn tank! Thanks for everyone's opinions and help!!!!

It seems that most angel fish I research show that they are not safe with corals or at the very least monitor. I have a 75 gallon with mostly softies and LPS. Anyone had any luck with any angel not messing with their corals ?

Thanks for the reccomendation. I set this tank up about a year ago with mostly old lr from another tank. So it is pretty established but I have been fighting cyano a little and I know I need new lights for one(I'm picking them up tomorrow). Hopefully this will help alleviate. I'm probably going...

What would everyone use in a 75gl with lr corals and fish to cleanup the sand. I thought about crabs but hate how they crawl all over the corals, Maybe some snails ? Maybe sand sifting star fish ? Maybe diamond goby ? What are the plusses and minuses on all of these ? anyone ?????

I have a 75gal with mh bulbs, lr, sump with skimmer and fuge. My numbers run in line where I want them. the only thing I have been a little dissapointed with the last year or so is coral growth. I have LPS mostly, frogspawn, hammer, colt. Some zoos, monti, other leathers, mushrooms, etc. I have...

I don't have a big cuc really, no conch snails. I have just a few snails and crabs. Probably would not hurt to add some snails and crabs. It seems sometimes crabs knock over or mess with my corals and it pi#$ me off

My bulbs are about 11 months old. I am getting new ones shipped in next week. I currently have 2- 250watt mh (growbulbs). I am replaceing them with 2-250 watt Sout Pacific bulbs. I will see what happens next

I have a friend that just this week was acclimating a clown tang and while doing so walked to the kitchen to get something. When he came back his little boy had picked up the fish and put it in his mouth ! So far the fish is still alive and my friend told me he was going to name him SUSHI ! lol

I have a long tenacle anenome and it will close up and eat brine or mysid shrimp from the water column when I feed my fish. Wherever you place him in the tank, if he does not like it, don't worry he will move. I was lucky when I put mine in about a year ago, I placed him in the front corner with...

Other than corals, a black clown, a percula clown, a cleaner shrimp and a coral banded shrimp.

Its on the inside of my son's biocube. We have not seen it since. My wife took the pic when I was not at home so I could tell her what it was. I have not idea, lol

OK -= I figured it out. I am going to post a pic to ID on another thread so everyone can see. I needed to insert image, not attachment...hold on

I am using the paperclip above. I have tried to insert it from a camera and then from my PC. Both won't let me

I am trying to post a pic of something I would like identified. When I do a box pops up and says I "do not have permission" to post anything. Why would that be or how do I fix it ? HELP >>>>>>>>>>

I continue to have some cyano issues in my tank. 75 gal with 90 # lr. Medium bioload and corals. Below are my parameters. salinity 1.025 ph 8.4 kh - 8 calcium 420 nitrates - 0 phosphates- 0 temp - 80 I know overfeeding can cause an issue, but I only feed once a day and do it slowly as not to...

I was using reefgrow bulbs, and overall they are fine, but I was hoping for somethign a little better as far as growth. My buddy at the LFS is saying that for the money he has been real happy with SPS(South Pacific Sunlight) 14k. It probably really is his opinion because I am not buying from...

Also, I see mixed thoughts on kelvin rating. Will the 20k give you less coral growth than a 14K for instance ?

I've been sitting here researching some more on line. The Radium 20k looks a little tempting too. I see mention on line of types of ballasts. One forum said don't use these bulbs on electronic ballasts. What the h@@#$ does that mean. I don't really know what kind of ballasts I even have, I guess...
