I'm looking to get rid of my cansiter filter and I was looking into some hang on filters. I was reading into the emperor 400 filter and wanted to know what you guys thought. I'm looking to put it on my 46 gallon.

How do you get rid of these little suckers? Recently I noticed these little things on my rock and I don't want to see them anymore, so any help is appreciated!

Last week I was in the hospital for a couple of days and while I was gone some water evaporated and since I came back I haven't been feeling well enough to take care of it. Today I was feeling better so I decided to top off my tank and before I did I checked my specific gravity and it came out...

Just wanted to know who else out there has a 46 gallon tank. I want to change mine up as far as aquascape and possibly adding a new fish or two. Just want to get some ideas. Thanks all!

All of the fish that I have seem to be very close to each other as far as color goes. Right now, my fish are either yellow, orange, red, or a combination of these colors (except for the algae blenny). I wanted a fish that's darker in color like a blue or something like that. I already tried a...

About 2 years ago I got a pair of false perculas and the smaller one of the two never did well and died about a year ago. The other one is now about 3 inches and gets along with evryone else in the tank. I was looking around and I found a tear drop ocellaris clownfish and I was wondering if the...

I got my bulbs for new light fixture today! The fixture is a tek t5 4x39 watt. Well anyway, I put the bulbs in and I went to turn it on and when I did, nothing happened. The only thing that did happen that a green light on each of the switched turned on. So before I throw a fit about these bulbs...

I just bought a tek t5 fixture. It's 36 inches with 4x39 watt bulbs. I just have to order the bulbs but i wasn't sure which ones to get. The choices I have are (they're all Giesmann PowerChrome t5 ho fluorescent lamps) -aqua blue + 11k -midday 6k -actinic + blue -pure actinic -daylight 6.5k I...

I wanted to upgrade my lights and I was looking into a t5 fixture because the mh fixtures are too expensive. Well I found a fairly inexpensive fixture, it's a current-usa nova t5 HO extreme 4x39 watt. Is that enough lighing? I have a 46 gallon bowfront (36 inches long and 18 inches deep). Thanks!

I have a 10 gallon tank just laying around and i was wondering if i could keep a seahorse or two. I know nothing about them so of course plenty of research will be done before anything is done. I just wanted to know if it could even work. The dimentions of the tank are about 20x11x12. Thanks to...

As the title says, what's the minimum size tank for a fuzzy dwarf if it's all by himself? Ever since i started keeping fish i just fell in love with these guys.

This morning i woke up and found out my tank was leaking. I started to look for the leak and then i found out that the outlet got all wet so i quickly unplugged everything and then i found out that the oulet was singed. i can't find were the leak was and i have no idea what to do.

I was just about to place in another order and then I thought about when it would come. If I place the order now, when will it be shipped out? I was wondering because I can't have it come on Thursday because I have a track meet so I won't be around.

I don't really know much about gph or anything like that and I wanted more flow in my tank and I'm not sure what type of powerhead I should get. Right now I have 2 powerheads one Rio 200 and one Rio 800. What should I get to move the water across the entire tank without being too strong? I have...

Well, this might be a stupid question but I'll give it a shot anyway... So I'm sitting in my chemistry class on friday and we were learning about the pH scale and pH buffers. Well, my teacher gave us an example of a buffer and how it works, she said that she just pours a box of baking soda in...

I just got in another order from swf.com and just had a couple of questions. 1. I got 20 astrea snails and they were shipped in no water and that's the first time that happened to me. Are they suppose to be shipped in no water? 2. I also got the reef copepods and it says to just but in. Do...

I relized on my royal gramma last night that on his face were these white spots. At first I thought it was ich but now they are completely gone. There is not one spot on him and right now he's a brillian purple and yellow. I've had him for about 5 months now and he's never had it before nor has...

Since today is president's day, I didn't know if swf.com was still processesing and shipping out orders. I placed an order yesterday morning and wanted to know when it would be shipped out. Thanks all

I just placed an order and I clicked on confirm order and I didn't recieve a reciept or anything. Under order status, it doesn't say anything about my order and I'm just very worried because I don't want to put the order in twice and then get charged twice. Anyone who can help please tell me...

I've had an outbreak of algae and nothing I get will eat it. I've tried 2 lmb and both didn't touch it, 2 urchins who have been picking at it a little, a lettuce nudibranch, and turbo snails. Does anybody have any suggestions about why nothing is eating it?
