I just bought 2 Turbo snails to ad to my tank and I think they died as soon as we put them in. The tank has been up around 3 weeks and all tests are perfect.The 2 Damsels I added are doing fine and there is good growth on the LR. We let them float in the bag from the lfs for around 15min and...

How many crabs and shrimp would be ok? Its a 45 Gal corner tank, and could I add some snails also? Thanks

LR

Photos, I hope.

I have a brownish, some lite, some dark, discoloration or growth on my LR,and also a brownish,almost looks like dirt on my CC base. The tank has been up over 2 weeks with only a Damsel in it. Any ideas of what this could be?

I'm using a Millennum 3000 hang on on my new SW tank. I have LR and a CC base with 1 Yellow Tail Damsel. Should I take the carbon cartridges out of the filter system while the tank cycles. Its be over 2 weeks now and the amonia levels have stayed at 0 the whole time so I dont think the cycle has...

Thanks, Yes I wanted the DSB but my wife liked the look of the CC. I thought about adding some LS in parts of the tank on top of the CC but I'm not sure if it would be a good idea.

I am cycling with live rock and a crushed coral base, wish I had went with ls but the wife likes the look of the cc, so what cleaners will work best in the cc without hurting my lr...

I have a 44gal corner tank with a hanging wet/dry filter and 2-200gph powerheads. Where in this style tank is the best location for the powerheads? I am still cycling the tank so the only thing in it is some live rock in the center on a bed of sea substrate gravel from my LFS but I am planning...

No, its never been treated with copper. Also can I keep the filter bottom in place with the crushed corel, remove the tubes and just add a layer of sand on top since the tank is already filled with saltwater, I just dont want to waste the new crushed correl I put in? Thanks

I'm setting up my 44 gal corner tank and would like to know when I should add live rock to the tank? The tank was a former freshwater system which I took down and cleaned. It now has a wet/dry tank mounted filter, 1 power head that is pulling water thru the undergravel filter tube, and crushed...
