just found this thread... forgetting that i even posted it 5 years ago. The conch did great for 3 years in my 30 gallon and is still doing great in my 90! Only remaining original member of my livestock when i got into the hobby!

i will have a remora for sale shortly when i add my sump. I'll keep you posted. =)

mine does the same thing, ill see it fanning away sand with its tail like crazy until theres a 3-4 inch pile of sand against my front glass, i'll also see it carrying a mouthful of sand to the other side of the tank and spitting it out. Not much else to do in a tank i guess lol

I just ordered two K-3's myself THIS MORNING for my 4' tank, after reading several threads about which size should go with which tank... Can your problem be corrected by aiming them elsewhere or is that too much flow for that size tank?

Thanks Mike, I'll just buy a new sheet of 1/4". Does anybody know of any reasons NOT to use styrofoam? Could it possibly dissolve from getting wet over time and CREATE an impurity under the tank that could cause a leak or crack?

So i'm moving my reef over to my new 90 Gallon GLASS tank. I'm using a wooden stand and from what i've gathered here using styrofoam under the tank is a good idea to compensate for imperfections in the wood and/or possible warping. I have the blue 2" thick stuff already from recent construction...

ive got 2 in my 35 gal, see them both every day and have not seen a molt from either of them ever (had them for 5 mos.) I see a molt from my cleaner shrimp about every 3 weeks.

agreed, vermetid

Easy to take care of as long as theres some algae for it to graze on its happy. It ate half a head of my frogspaw once, which recovered luckily but if it eats anythin again its goin back. Its been 3 months and it hasnt bothered anything. Although i just added some zoos and this morning when the...

BABY FRAGS!!

They are finicky sometimes, mine didnt open for 3 weeks after i added it, then it was fine. If its been a lillte longer then usual without a water change it wont open. Grows quickly though.

heres my tuxedo:

I've had the urchin for almost 3 months now. It is a pain in the butt sometimes, it will knock over corals, move small rocks, carry snails around, carry my thermometer around lol. I also believe it ate half of one of my heads of frogspawn (which recovered by the way) Its not enough of a problem...

I have found it works best when the intake is about 1 inch below the surface of the water, so thats how i run it. I did remove the sponge also. Adding a wood airstone provides a much finer supply of bubbles allowing more contact time with the water and a more efficient skimmer. The other end of...

It comes with a cheesy plastic air valve at the end of the airhose that goes into the powerhead. I popped it off and put a brass valve on instead for better control. The intake tube i shortened is the U-tube going from the powerhead over the tank to the bottom of the skimmer, i cut it so the...

Thanks guys, i'll try to get the cam again soon for the new zoos and my first clam which i need an ID for. :happy:

Skimmer is a seaclone 100 (despite all the negative press it works fine on my tank) I have replaced the air valve with a brass one and shortened the intake tube and added an airstone so it works quite well. I do have an emperor 400 running full time with carbon and for circulation. :jumping:

Thanks cowfish, i was playing with macro mode as you can see the tail is in focus but the head is not, not much room for error eh lol. Honestly the 2 pieces i added tonite add a lot to the tank i wish i could take some more pics.
