    Calcium Level Too High?

    I have a feeling I may get fussed at for this but I don't do regular water changes. I take measurements weekly and if anything is off I will do one but I can't tell you the last time I did. I generally add water to make up for evaporation once a week but that's about it. I looked at the water...

    Calcium Level Too High?

    The substrate is aragonite live sand I believe, and the water has been established for over two years so I doubt it's the salt mix, I haven't added any.

    Replacing PC Lights, I don't know what to do!!!!

    I have a 55g tank that I have just started keeping some corals in. So far I have a few different types of mushrooms, button polyps and some pulsing xenia. I would also like to keep some zoos.

    Am I doing this right?

    :help: Ok well here's the deal. I bought an anemone, a condy, and he is very bleached. Not sure why I did it, probably out of pity for him. Anyways, I have him in a 55g with 260w power compacts on it. I have very good water parameters, amm 0, ph 8.2, nitrites 0 and nitrates at <5. I got him last...
