    Desperate-please advise

    I will do my best, but there are others on here much more qualified than I to answer these questions. Questions: 1 - Cycling - leave it alone, add a frozen shrimp, or add Biospira? - Don't add anything. Time will cycle your tank. Of the two, if you have to add something throw in a shrimp...

    Any 1 From Kentucky

    Aquatica is by far the best. Great selection of zoo's and sps. Fair prices and will "hook" you up from time to time if you become a regular customer. Great for corals. Not so good for fish. One annoying thing is they don't have prices on anything, so you have to ask how much everything...

    Fragging zoos

    Not trying to hijack, but what if the the zoo's have grown from an original frag onto an adjacent rock that can't be removed? I had this happen with a frag that was sitting on top of a rock that couldn't be moved. I had around 20 polyps on the original frag rock, and probably 10 on the rock...

    Need advice on 2 month old tank

    Inawe, I had an eclipse for my first year before I upgraded. I had a constant battle with the same problems you are now. IMO, it's very hard to get a good flow with that set-up. I added a small power head on the bottom near the back glass to help increase circulation. It helped, but it took...

    Ok, so I haven't taken pictures in like 6 months

    Crox, I'm not looking to sell. I may trade something but honestly, the whole thought of shipping in 20 degree weather doesn't seem like the best idea. I guess I would be willing to try if you had something to trade. I'm not interested in any softies. Post a picture of what you would like to...

    Hey, what's up, hurt? No, I lost it. It bleached on me. Got anything new? You can have a piece of that purple rim cap if you want. It's the fourth picture in the second post. The frag would be a solid 2"x2", I was going to trade some of it in to Todd at Aquatica, but your welcome to it.

    Lol theappe, try 4 inches on the low side and 7 inches on the high side. It was higher, it's unbelievable how much it has settled. I would swear somebody is stealing sand if I didn't know better. It's slightly misleading though, I have a ton of rock burried underneath the sand. I would...

    Good question, I put 3 medium sized Peppermints in there about a month ago. I haven't seen them since. I guess the Aptasia hasn't seen them either because their still there. Just two cleaners. They hang together constantly though, you never see one without the other.

    Purple rimmed cap that could be fragged in about 3 different places. It's growing at an incredible pace. It started out the size of a match book and is about 8 inches across and tall. It's now about 1" from the water line so I'm going to have do something soon.

    Thanks for the compliments. I still have alot of empty rock to work with. Most of the smaller SPS are frags that I'm just waiting to trade in. I'm not really into softies so it's a little slow going right now.

    Ok, so I haven't taken pictures in like 6 months

    I posted a few pictures after the first month, and again after the second, then summer came and I got a little busy. So I'm back after six months for a few updated pictures. My tank was set up on March 31st. The first clear pictures were taken on April 1st. The next set was around June 1st...

    going away what do i do

    I have a very healthy sun coral and was gone for 3 days and noticed a little tissue recession in two different spots upon return. I fed him every day for three straight days (usually every other day) and it's starting to look better (that was a week ago). There is no way I would wait an entire...

    Red slime on sand

    Check for phosphates. Sounds like cyanobacteria.

    Skimmer Problem, need help!

    I have an Euro-Reef 180 and it's not skimming. It's only two months old so I had to screw it up somehow. I was adding some new corals to my tank using epoxy and gel glue. I know sometimes it messes with it, but at the moment, it's not doing anything. I reached down into the sump to get some...

    Hurt, I would love some new frags. I too, am really into SPS, and would take anything you don't have room for. I am running a 48" Aqualight Pro 2x150w HQI/2x96w PC/3x1w lunar lights so I should meet your lighting requirements. I can pick up any time after six, Wednesday and Thursday are...
