Hello, nice looking Pico. I am back from taking a break from the hobby for a few years but am going in a different direction from what I use to have. My last tank was a 3 gal pic, I can give you my opinion when I had my 3 gallon going and you can decide for yourself. I had a cleaner shrimp...

Ya Debbie is back, that did not last long hey? Just about 2 years and then in Dec I just had to get into the pico thing again. So here I am after I sold my 5 gal and all the contents to a friend but hey its all good and I still had stuff for my 3 gal anyways. Now I just need to do something...

I currently am running a coralife 9" 18 watt power compact fixture on my 3 gal pico tank. I am wanting to upgrade my lighting for the soft corals I keep. I have been looking at several options and what other reefers recommend to me here in Canada. Here are some of options to order from Canada...

Which of these zoas is the brighter of the two? LA Lakers Fruitloops Which of these Paly's is the most attractive? Valentines Day Massacre Magician My lights are PC's if that helps any, I am looking for something different but also pops with nice color under PC's

Thanks As for the question just wanting to know if they prefer anything different than other zoas? I will definatley post pics as time goes by. I am not a high tec reefer by any means just miss a few corals. I might add a cleaner shrimp to the tank for something neat in with the corals.

Thanks for the replies. This is not my tank, I am getting some frags of this today so once they acclimatize in my tank I will take a closer pic and see if they look like the ones you sent me. Do you find any difference with the pink zoas compared to ther colors? This is one color I have never...

I posted a picture of some pink zoas in the zoa section but have no response as to what kind of zoas they are. Would anyone here be able to tell me what the name of these might be?

Can anyone id what is the name of the pink zoas in this picture?

Thanks to you all. I know I made the right decision, my heart really lies with the freshwater and my koi pond. I do love the saltwater fish though, some good friends of ours have a 125 gal so I can visit Nemo anytime :-)   Thanks for the past 6 years of helping me along the way and wish you all...

Hello all you saltwater hobbyists.   I just wanted to say Thank You for all your help, info etc on these wonderful forums. I have learned so much from you all and will always remember it. I have refered this site to many people I run into looking for that "saltwater help" and will continue to do...

Well after much waiting and talking with the place i bought this fixture from they assured me they have the new bulbs in stock and current usa emailed me saying they had shipped these bulbs to this place as well. Yes they no longer make these fixtures don't know why but I am still not totally...

Yes things cost alot here in Canada for anything Saltwater, hence the amount of people shutting down their systems in my area is huge. I just phoned this place I bought the fixture from and they assured me the bulbs are in the warehouse they just need to post them to the site which will be...

Yes I am upset about getting replacement bulbs for this fixture. I do not want to have to order them from the US as the shipping to Canada is not cheap. Both the sites I ordered this fixture from which I cannot put the name here are sold out of this fixture as well as the bulbs. I have contacted...

Well what I thought was a good thing for my 5 gal nano has turned out to me not so. I bought 3 months ago the Current USA Nova Extreme 18" 18 watt T5HO. I now find out after they told me they always have this fixture and bulbs in stock you cannot get bulbs for it anymore here in Canada. They...

I have a very small nano tank of 5 gal. I have this piece of live rock that I really want to keep but don't want the things that are growing on it right now. It has your common brown polyps and anthelia that is so out of control, rather than trying to take this stuff off which I am not about to...

Sometimes when you move them suddenly to brighter light they can bleach out and respond like they are, so maybe move them up slowly. glad you are happy with your new lights.

Thanks for the replies. I don't have any issues with my tank using carbon just thought that the chemipure might last longer than the carbon does.

Anyone here use Chemi-Pure Elite and what are your thoughts on this product?? I am looking at putting this into my 5.5 gal nano to replace the carbon I have been using the past 5 years and was told this is great stuff. Oh, and I do replace the carbon often.....

Light with zoas is a huge factor as I have found out, so if you can move them they should shrink back down to the normal size if they are getting enough. What size is your tank? What kind of lighting?

Good light and water changes is all they need. However I do once a week feed the whole tank with a small amount of cyclops. Don't know if they makes a huge difference but I see them close up when the cyclops lands on them. They will be just fine though with the light, and water changes.
