Hey everyone. I have been given an oppurtunity to upgrade from my current 29g semi-reef with Nova extreme T-5s(48x12x12) to a 55g (48x12x19?) anyway I won't be gaining any length or width, just depth. My current tank is tied in with a 29g tall and 10g sump/fuge so I'm running a 68g system. If...

are the perculas sold on this site true or false percs? What's the differences in the two?

Hi guys. Tuesday night I added seven (small) peppermint shrimp to my tank, and I haven't seen them since! Are these shrimp that secretive, or were they just a tasty snack for my fish? I've looked for what seems like hours now, even got out the flashlight last night and looked. I haven't seen...

I orignally purchased two clownfish (percs) from swf a few months ago. They were both the exact same color when I recieved them. Unfortunaltly one was very stressed and did not make it after a few days. I recently got another from here again, but the coloration is very different from the...

How often does SWF.com send out email specials? Does anyone know if it's like once a month or just sporadically? I think my email has been filtering it out as SPAM Just wondering... Thanks in advance

Just wanted to post a shot of my new tank at one week. I'd like to keep the pics updated as this tank matures.

Just wondering what some good colorful fish would be for a 29g long reef tank(48x12x12). I have one 29g tall tank set up for my original damsels and red shrooms / ricordia and now I have set up my second 29g long tank with 30lbs of cured rock and so far 1 green clown goby. I would love to...

I'll even take best guesses . I posted this under the coral forum yesterday, but there looks to be a whole lot more traffic here, maybe I'll get a better response. I'm really looking to ID the coral that's in the top two pics, or at least what's left of that coral. :notsure: Here's the...

My new live rock came in this past weekend and it is loaded with stuff! Lots of corals and hitchhikers. One rock that was in the batch has two areas that still have some type of coral in the base but I have no idea what type of coral it is please help if you can. okay here we are...

Okay here's the deal. My order from swf came in yesterday and my 2-3" Pink Tip anemone turned out to be HUGE!!! I'm pleased with the order but the sizes are much larger than described!:jumping:(except for the coral frags) So I'm sitting back watching this thing and its tentacles almost reach...

Last night as I was fragging some shroom I accidentally knocked over a piece of live rock and to my surprise was something new growing on the under side of it! I don't have the pics right now but will try to post them tonight. The best way to describe it is clearish/transparent looking anenome...

I'm getting ready to order live rock for my new 29g. Can anyone recommend good rock that has lots of things growing on it to me? Also, to put it in perspective, appx. how many rocks = ~50lbs? (edited to reword question)

Just wondering if any of you know if $189.00 shipped is a good deal on a coralvue 250w MH retro plug and play kit, with bulb ballast and reflector. Also wondering how many lights I'll need for my tank. My tank dims are 48" x 12" x 12" or 29.9g. Can I get away with one MH in the center of my...

i know this has probablly been asked a thousand times, and I should have listened to the "don't skimp on the skimmer" lectures, and now I'm paying for it. I am currently running an 'Oddysea' brand skimmer and had no problems for the first year or so, now I can't get the dang thing to work to...

:help: My colt coral frag is still a ball of slime (in tank since Sat.) Is it ever going to recover? I've already lost the finger coral. How can I tell if it's past the point of no return?

:help: What legal action can we take for those skam artists who get our corals but we never recieve the trade? We know the addresses, because we sent our package there, but what can we do??? :thinking:

Just wondering if there's a locked thread out there that talks about what the parameters should be for a reef tank. That's always the first thing that everyone asks about when something goes wrong. If not can someone chime in with thier advice?
