    Crazy costumes or not, she really can sing. Especially live, which sadly, very few singers now a day are capable of doing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7HvURBhMGE

    Need a new powerhead for my nano

    Hey I posted this in the nano section but it doesn't have very much activity so I decided to post it here as well. I have a 14 gallon biocube with a koralia 1 powerhead. It has just the right amount of power, but it is really bulky and sticks out really far from the side of my tank. I was...

Now, the power of it is a good level, but it's just so bulky and sticks out really far from the side of my tank and looks terrible. Is there another type of powerhead I could get that has the same power, but is much more...

    Pairing a black and white with an orange?

    Coral Care/ID?

    Oh ok thanks for the food tip! And I would say the two largest heads in the middle are around an inch or so. I got it $15 at a frag trade so I figured it was a pretty good deal.

    get the BIOCUBE HQI??

    Well I have just the regular 48 watt daylight/actinic 14 gal cube and softies and lps are growing really well with it. If you want to keep sps, clams, or an anemone, go for the hqi. But if you just want lps and softies, there's really no need.

    Thanks! I've only had it for a little over 2 weeks. It really seems to like my tank! I was hoping my clown would host it, but he's definately not the smartest little guy :/

    Calcium too low

    My calcium is aroun 300-325 different times ive tested for it. I read a couple threads on how to raise it, but im still confused. What is the best way to raise it and how long should i expect it to take? I want to start adding corals in the next week or so. Thanks!
