I just bought a cpr bakpak 2, when I started it up it was leaking. So, I tighted the inlet (outside portion) and noticed the inlet (inside portion) was broke at the treaded piece. Now, I need to replace the part, but don't know where to find it. I would take it back, but I'm not sure if I...

Thank you for your reply Thomas I am use to freshwater tanks and just getting into sw, so I think I mistakened a filter for a skimmer. Would I need another filter, or could I just put a skimmer in the tank? I have 30#'s of LR and am planning on getting another 25#'s. I have sand on the bottom...

I am upgrading to a 55 gal long tank from a 30 gal. I have a skilter in my 30 and want to still use it with another, but what other filter should I go with? Each LFS said different things. One Redsea prizm pro deluxe 300 and the other said bak- pak I think is what it is called. One is...

I had placed my feather duster where I wanted him and woke up yesterday to find it must not have agreed with me. It moved behide my rocks and now you can just see his feather top. I planed it all out where I wanted them, so we could see them clearly. And he just wiggles out and placed himself...

I meant it shouldn't recycle. That is how I did my QT.

You also could put extra sponges in your main tank,or filter and put them into you QT. I don't know if you have sponges in the ST. If not put some extra into to the filter for next time. That way if should recycle. :) Just watch for Ammonia.

I would look them up and see if that is what you have. Just do a search on bristleworms. Your welcome.

They're probably bristleworm. I wouldn't worry to much about them, it is common to have them in your LR. Don't touch them because the little bristle they have can pook you and it burns and inches.

I go to fish doctor in Ypsi. it is right next to putt putt on Michigan ave. They are very friendly and helpful. They are not just out for a buck, they let you know pros and cons.

It is so wierd, I have been looking for three weeks on the internet for a neon blue fish for my husband. That is all he wants. I finially found a blue fish, Pygmy (Cherub) Angelfish, and just put him into QT. I also got some hawaiian feather dusters for me. He loved them and wants me to get...

What I did on my QT was: paint the bottom white, put PVC pipe for them to hide, and put extra sponges that I had in my ST into the QT filter. Since my ST was already cycled. I was told not to put anything else in it (other than heater...), like LR. That is what I did and I had read it on a...

I also have brown alge. I went through my cycle about two and half weeks ago and got some scarlett hermits and the brown alge is almost all gone. When I started to turn the light off at night and got the three hermit crabs it's slowly going away. My alge was very dark brown. I think it just...

There is so much info that you will need, just remember one step at a time. There is a forum 'advice for new hobbyists' in the beginning of this board that helps out a lot. A site that helped me was how to set up a saltwater aquarium. Click here: How To Set Up A Saltwater Aquarium In 10 Easy...

I just got more LR with many different growths on it. The color is all different colors, so that helped a lot. I didn't like the LR look, but I just think I need more of it. I now have 21# and I filled up the back of the tank which looks very nice. My Nitrites are back to 0 and the nitrates...

I thought all anemones need special lighting and will my clown fish kill it since they are so small, or will they leave it a lone? I also looked up christmas tree coral and they said it eats coral, will they get along with the tube anemones and the coco worm? This is what I was thinking of...

I just looked up everyones suggestions and the coco worms are very neat looking. I have the feather dusters on my LR, I didn't know what they were. I didn't realize how many different types of LR there was. Would you just start building upwards with the LR? If anyone has pictures of their...

I'll start with the LR first and see if the nitrite go down. How often should I do a water change, since it is so new? The LR I have is very colorful, but wanted something different and didn't know where to start. Now, I know there are more to choose from. I see sponge listed, are they hard...
