Pics aren't that great but this is my two horses, one I've had for around two months and the other just a few weeks

I posted my tank build on here and had it up and running a year ago, So I thought I would share some pics of what it looks like now

I just bought a bottle of tiger pods for my sea horses, I hear they are easy to raise. Would like to hear from some people that raise them and could give me some ideas of how they have there's set up.

This just showed up in the tank this last weekend. It seems to have the texture like an anemone. It has a larger round base and the tip is bright red. almost the shape of a golf tee. Anybody have a clue of what it is??

I was going thru the 200+ lbs. of live rock I picked up this weekend and came across something I haven't seen before. tried to take a pick but didn't turn out. but it's pretty easy to describe. looks just like a rolly polly, and about the same size and kinda of a brown color. I left it in with...

I have a pajama cardinal that I noticed one of it's eyes had a milky glaze over it last week and it's gotten worst, now it's puffed up and white looking, could someone tell me what this might? and if there is a way to treat it? the fish is in a reaf tank.

Well it looks like I'll be starting a new project, setting up a frag tank. Been wanting to do this for awhile and ran across a deal today on a tank. The tank is 24x48X18" tall I think around 90 gal.with a built in overflow that has three 1.5" blukheads I have a 30 gal. sump/skimmer/fuge already...

I picked up a used tank today from a guy that was selling out all his stuff, with the deal he gave me his clown fish. I know a pic would help but with this slow computor would take forever, so I'll try and describe, it's a vary large fish with a dark brown body, yellow underside and fins, and...

Sunday was a sad day, are lawnmower blenny (Benny) was dead sunday morning, we had him for 3 years and was one of the coolest fish I had, lots of personality. I still don't know why he died, I'm not sure how long they normally live. everybody else and all the corals and all water test out fine...

did a water change yesterday, and checked what the cal. levels were on the reef crystals I was using. At 1.026sg the cal was at 320. I've been having problems keeping cal. levels up so I went with the reef crystals because I thought it would have better levels. Is this normal for reef crystals...

Don't remeber the name of them but the small starfish that usually have five legs, a lot of times a leg or two is missing. I have had these in my tank for years, and always thought they were reef safe and a good thing to have, but at a LFS this weekend they were collecting some in a bag and...

since setting up my 125 gal reef, I have not been able to maintain the cal. levels I need. I built a kalk reactor and am adding 5 heaping teaspoons of kalk a week to the system, but without dosing a two part with it, my cal. levels will not maintain above 400. usaully they will drop as low as...

who would have thought, 70deg. today, but the wind have been gusting as high as 60mph. I'm over two hours from home, luckly the wife was there, she got home and power was out, tank temp was still 79 deg. so don't think it had been off long. elec. company said probaly 8 hours before power is...

My new 125 tank has been running for three months now, I first set it up using instant ocean salt, which I have found out only has around 360 on calcium so I've been having to work on raising that from the start, I have since gone to reef crystals for water changes which is suppose to be around...

I noticed over the holiday's that they had eggs. and on new years night they hatched. I'm not set-up to try and raise them and it seems like way more work then I would want to do, but it was pretty cool to see they were having babies. Whish it was easier to raise them, hate to just let them go...

I have a coral beauty that I've had for over two years and I noticed it nipping at the corals. I have a new large button polyp that I've had for almost three weeks and all of a sudden it starting looking bad, some skelton showing and not coming out, I tried moving it to different flow areas with...

I order it a couple weeks ago from a place that collects them somewhere off the coast of Florida. the first week it did not open at all, and then gradually opened up completely for about a day, but since then it has gotten to the point of not opening at all, and the branches are not looking as...

I installed a monitor yesterday and when I first started it the PH was at 8.2, by the time the lights went out it was up to 8.4, today it is up to 8.6. Is there anyway to lower this? I'm thinking this is getting to the danger level.
