I had read somewhere that you could feed bloodworms to SWF. Is this true? Diz

I recently picked up some extra shells for my hermits from SWF. When they got here, the odor was asphyxiating. I had read that soaking them in a closed container of sea water would do the trick. No luck. I then read where boiling them would cleanse them. Is this the proper thing to do? Any...

I'm in Chantilly. Marine Scene in Herndon does have a very good selection. They also have daily specials and their Fiji live rock is usually less than $4/lb. Some of their items are comparable to SWF. As for other places, there is a place in Congressional Plaza in Rockville, but they are very...

I posted this earlier down below on this board, but how are you managing the heat that those bulbs are putting out. I am having serious heating issues on my 29-gal. Diz

Question: I have a 10000k 55 watt HO Flourescent that came in a hood over my 29 gallon. I am only leaving it on for 8 hours a day and it is raising my tank temp. by +4 deg. Any suggestions on how to remedy? I also have a 50/50 55 watt that I can't put on for fear of turning my tank into stew...

I just bought my clean up crew from SWF.com and they arrived in great shape, albeit 11 days after I ordered. But, I was pleasantly surprised on the health of the arrived species and the packaging was great. Every one of the inverts was alive when I unpacked them and are all doing quite well in...

Thanks for your advice. One other thing, after they have attached, can you move them without injuring them? Diz

When purchasing feather dusters, do you need to actually place them in a crevice in your LR or push them down in the sand? or will they propogate themselves and find an appropriate place to live? Thanks. Diz

Is there any special feeding that I will need to administer for a cleanup crew? or just let them live off the algae? i.e. Red Hermits and emerald, turbo snails, shrimp (peppermint, camel back, cleaner, coral banded), & feather dusters Also, any dietary direction for a blue linkia star? Thanks...

I'll have to give you the exact numbers tomorrow. But Ammonia and Nitrites are 0...I had my spike and it has cycled through. Nitrates are very close to 0. PH is around 8.2. Water temp is at 78-80. I have not had my lights on since a store owner suggested not to until I get the cleanup crew...

I have a 29 gal. tank with a DSB and 32 lbs of LR. All of the measured parameters are within spec. Tank has been running for almost a month. Should I get a breed of clownfish (don't want a damsel) to help cycle the tank first? or get the cleanup crew first? Also, if you get the clownfish...

I sent saltwaterfish.com my order on Fri. 1/4 and have not received an email yet saying they have filled my order. It was only for a cleanup crew and some additional inverts. Has anyone else had a problem of not getting their order that has already been placed? I know they recently added the...

Incrasing the speed of your film to 1000 will help, but getting a digital will help you post your pictures. That will be beneficial for a variety of reasons, the best of which is showing off :D

Thanks S_R, I ordered on Friday last week and also sent them an email. This is my first saltwater tank, so I am quite anxious. Diz

Does anyone know how to actually contact a person via phone at Saltwaterfish.com? There isn't a phone number on this website and the number I got from information in Miami is a recording. Also, after submitting an order, when should you expect fulfillment of your order? Thanks. Diz
