    Is 450 gallons too big

    I'm gonna fill a few trash cans with water and connect them all with a lot of flow going through it. The tank is about 8 feet long and 3 feet tall. The acrylic is an inch thick. Sometimes at work I have to build air tight containers for testing. They make special pads for cleaning, but i don't...

    Powder blue died of ick

    Once a day mix a little garlic in with the food. If you do frozen shrimp or something like that add garlic when you defrost the frozen food, let the garlic soak in very well. Another thing you can try is filling up a 10 gallon tank with fresh water, don't forget de-chlor, and put your infected...

    how many hours should l leave the lights on!

    The Yellow Tang should be alright just as long as you don't add any more fish. It depends on how long your tank is but Coralife has a nice system that would be great for what you want to do. It has four 50/50 bulbs, the whites and blues. I also have two 16 gallon tanks and i bought one for each...

    Snowflake eel???

    I wouldn't worry. I bought a baby and it never touched the damsels like the people said it would. I didn't stuff it either it just never bothered them. The only thing I would really worry about is the Goby and fire fish. The fire fish are really slow swimmers so the eel would most likely go for...

    Bio-Activ Live Sand? LS

    If you havn't added any fish i would buy play sand from a Home and Garden store. One of my friends bought a 110 and he put play sand in and the sand is better than the live sand you can buy at a fish store.
