What nano frag pak are you refering to? I thought there was one for cleaner crew that has crabs and snails but no corals.

What kind of shipping is needed for something like this? Overnight? or is sand ok to send via priority mail?

Bump

Thanks for the reponses. How long does it take for a "polyp" to become decent? How quickly do these reproduce? I have a 29G with 130W of PC lights. Do these ricordeas need any food besides lights?

Guys, I just ordered this green ricordea from this site. How small is a "polyp"? Is it just one of those little arms? Just curious if I just bought something that is too small and won't ever look like the picture there. Any clues? Thanks... can you tell this is my first coral? :-)

Hi, I live in Sunrise FL (near the Sawgrass Mall) and am looking for a local experienced reefers. I have a 29gal FOWLR that I want to make into a reef. The sand I have came from those "LS" bags they sell at the store. I think it has bacteria ok... but I need to get some microfauna going. Anyone...

I'm thinking of buying the worms pictured below. The place claims that they are safe bristleworms. Are they ok to add? I don't have a reef yet, but am in the planning stages. What do you guys think?

Ok.... I'm going to get flamed big time... but anyway here it goes... Over a year ago I bought an established 55g (4 foot long) tank from someone in the area. It was my first SW tank. It came with 1 fish, 2 shrimp, some snails etc... The fish was a ... Blue Hippo. <I now get ready for your...

I bought some at the supermaket. They sell them live. $0.33 a piece. I have a dozen.

I can't believe this is true... I just went to my local supermarket and picked up a dozen clams for $3.50!! All are alive (the package said "live") and are now cleaning my 55. Yeah!

Originally posted by Tuna Dan Yea its going on three days, still sounds the same. I think the pump is vibrating the whole skimmer, mine came with the rio 800 should I buy the Maxi Jet instead? Yes, you really should get the MaxiJet 1200 pump... you may need to also get the adaptor hose for...

Originally posted by alistair I've been doing 10% once a month, is this often enough? I have a 55 FOWLR and here is what I do. About 10% every 2 weeks (5 Gals every 2 weeks). Only do this if you have a good skimmer. Otherwise do 10 Gal every 2 weeks. Just my 2 cents.

AquaC Remora would be great for that size tank! :yes:

Yes, As a newbie I also got one when my fish got ich and needed hypo. It is invaluable... I also use it when I drip acclimate... I make sure both the tank and the container have the same SG before putting the specimen in the tank... I don't care if the acclimation time has passed... the SG must...

Get the AquaC for a 55. I have it on mine. It is supossed to be a HOB, but I put in as a HOB in my 10 gal sump... works great. You will be happy. Make sure to get it with the MaxJet 1200 pump and NOT the RIO 800.

Dude, january is around the corner... save the 500, and use it on the super tank.

Hi all, I've been reading up a lot on the importance of having detrivores in the sand bed of our tanks. However, these discussions usually revolve around the DSB, refugiums, and or reef tanks. My question is what about the folks that have a FOWLR, no refg. and a sandbed that is about 1 to 2...
