They are a fine addition. They move fast and can be quite humerous when they lay on the top waiting to be fed. Just don't plan on adding any coral later with them in the tank.

I agree with eaglefan. Get some turbo snails. Any type. you can't have to many IMO. You will not believe the work they do! My 75 gallon has probably 40 snails of different types in it.

Same for me. Won't try them again.

I have had three flame scallops. Two died quickly but one has been doing well for about four months now. Keep in mind my tank is very established with lots of stuff for him to filter feed. I also supplement with Black powder and Marine Snow or some other types of phytoplankton. I am not sure...

Any Comments at all? This was the freakiest thing I have ever seen in my tank(And I have seen some pretty weird stuff in there!).

O.K. How about this? 75 gallon tank. 300 watts of light, all on timers. Wave Maker running three power heads. Dual Bak pak skimmer. Four inch sand bed. 75 pounds of live rock. Several types of soft coral (Colt, Pom Pom, Zoe, Ricordea). Many inverts (Scallops, porcelin crabs, gobs of...

How many watts per gallon of water do you recommend for a slipper coral?

Here is the picture

Has anyone ever witnessed a pencil urchin fertilizing with sperm? I think I just witnessed that happening. The Urchin turned over and a white liguid began to squirt up in two spots. It transformed into a smoky fog and ran over the urchin. What do you think that was? Is that common? I have...

The picture shows it the size it is when it is open. anyone see any reason why I shouldn't try it in my reef tank without the hermit crab.:joy:

I run a bak pac 2 with 1 preskimmer and bubble trap. seems to work great. No complaints from me. I have a huge bio load in my reef tank and everything runs fine

:rolleyes: come on folks; surely someone knows what this critter is!:jumping:

I found this washed up on shore in Emerald Isle, NC. It appears to be an anenome of some type. I would like to put it in my reef tank but would like to know what it is first. Anyone out there seen this before?:help: :D

thanks jugger

SWF.com states they feed on light and current flow. Do they need anything else? They've got a mouth. Seems like they would want something more substantial:rolleyes:

I brought this anenome home on 12/27. His color is good. He is a flourescent green. His tentacles are full and sticky, but as you said he does meet one of the criteria - he won't plant. Today I got the pumps back on and was able to place him in a small PVC pipe that I got from the LFS that...

I still can't get this L/T Anenome to grab hold of anything. Where do they like to be placed? Sand or Rock?:scared:

I hate to sound really stupid here but exactly what kind of plant life are you referring to that will reduce the nitrates. Are you talking about algae or some other kind of plant life like the barbers brush I bought from swf.com that died in 2 weeks. I would like to add some live plants but I...

My eheim is of the canister variety. It is a 2217 to be exact. So the water level remains constant with it running. What i am looking for here is if someone with more experience than myself with mechanical filtration could suggest a better medium to put in the canister or maybe just tell me I...
