I have been out of the hobby for about 6 years and purchased this Biocube over two years ago. Well I got a wild hair up my *&^* and decided to set it up. It is going to be an SPS dominant tank with maybe one clam. I will be doing an LED conversion in a couple of weeks then the shopping for...

I recently set up my 14g Biocube. I was lucky enough to score 17lbs of LR from a well established tank. The rock is full of hitchhikers. My question is about Serpant Stars. I swear have 25 or more baby stars in the rock. There are legs sticking out everywhere. Do I have to worry about die...

I had a custom acrylic tank made a while back I am now living in a very warm climate and also don't have room to set it back up. Will it hurt the tank to store it in the attic. Thanks

We have just recently moved to Florence, South Carolina. I cannot find a decent store to purchase livestock. Looking for a good coral store. Don't mind a drive if the store is worth it. Please post up if you have some recommendations. Here are a couple of non tank related pics for views...

I have just moved to Manitowoc, WI and I was wondering if anyone could help me finda good LFS. Green Bay is about 35 miles away. I was not sure if we could post LFS names but I am asking anyways. If this is out of line just ignore.

Since I have returned to college to finish another degree I have been working part-time at a LFS. I take care of the limited salt selection we have. My question is the sump design set up by the prior owner, IMO is useless and in need of some serious help. The store hase 6 125g with 65g custom...

I have ARO PC ballasts and the end cap cords are likw 12". Would there be any adverse effect to cutting them shorter and splicing back together with electrical tape. I can wrap it nicer and keep it neater than using wire nuts.

I was bored and shot a couple of picks and looked a few old ones and really noticed the spread of the coraline. I will attach a couple of older pics to show progress. The only thing diffferent as far as livestock is the sun coral that was free and the Monti Digita that I snaped into three...

Today at work I noticed a finger leather in a small 25g nano that had some small creature eating the tissue. THis morning it looked fine and late this evening it looked quite bad. The culprit was some sort of small white and some brown poss worm or snail. I have seen these in tanks before but...

Had to share this one. Saw the tenticals out and only got one decent pic. Enjoy.

I understand the feeding process with these corals but I was thinking of trying something. Instead of shooting each polyp I was thinking of setting a glass beaker over it and shooting the food inside the beaker to trap it and let it feed. Do you think this may work? Edit: Forgot to mention I...

I have posted this question before but nobody has answered the coral question. Just questions about the powerhead cathing on fire. I had a power head burn up in the tank. I caught it very quick. The temp in the tank rose to 86 and some residue went into the water column from the meltdown...

I had a powerhead burn up and catch fire in the tank on Saturday. Did water change and have been running chemi-sorb since. Everything looks OK except the my Orange Monti Cap and my green/purple Monti Cap. They seem to have bleeched out a lot since the problem. Do you think it was the higher...

Have not posted tank pics in a while herethey are. 1st one is a end view.

Would I get an amonia spike if I add a 20lb bag of Aragalive LS to an established tank? I already have it and would like to add more sand ton my tank.

This guy has been in the tank a lttle over a month and has been doing very well. Last night great this morning not. He has moved from his spot and is shriveled up stuck to the tank in the upper left hand corner behind a powerhead. Water is good Ca is a little high at 480. Any input?

I have had a Birdsnest for a while now and yesterday it looked good but this morning before lights on I can see a spot where the tissue is missing. Could something in my tank have done this. The spot is about 3/8" by 1/2". AM 0 Trites 0 Trates 0 Cal 420 dkh 11 SG 1.026 Phos 0 (been running...

I am collecting the last bit of stuff for my 30 SPS tank. My question is with the skimmers I have narrowed down I will not have room to add a fuge to the sump. I was thinking of putting a shelf on the right side of my stand and using a 2.5g tank plumbed in for the fuge. Do you think this...

This guy hosted in the RBTA after about a week, then went to every other thing in the tank for weeks and now he is back in the RBTA. Counld not be happier. Pic not the best but here it is.
