So my new tank is cycling with cured live rock, I had about 45 lbs, and decided yesterday to add another 20 lbs. I got a really good deal on the rock, and also got a nice surprise on a couple of the pieces. When I was buying it, the guy told me there were a few zoas on some of the rock. I...

Today, I bought a Tek T5 36" 8x39 watt lighting fixture for my 36" long 55 gallon tank. Its meant to be hung from the ceiling, but that is absolutely not an option. The ceiling that the tank is under is a vaulted ceiling, and no matter how high I put the screws in the ceiling, the lights would...

So I started my cycle about a week ago with cured live rock. I heard if you use cured live rock there isnt much of a cycle at all. Ive been testing the water every couple of days, and put a little brine shrimp in twice. Last week the ammonia went up just a tiny bit, and dropped down the 0 the...

My 55 gallon tank is currently cycling. Eventually I will be adding a BTA and I just want to make sure the lights I'm getting will be enough for it. I will be getting the T5 Tek 36" 8x39 watt fixture. Would a BTA be ok with these lights? And while I'm asking, how do you think some sps coral...

Today I bought about 40 pounds of live rock from a guy who needed it sold. I dont have my tank set up yet, but will this weekend. I have the rock in a couple buckets but Im not too sure on what I should do now. Should I add some saltwater to the buckets and let them sit till this weekend? I...

Hows it going? Ive been out of the hobby for awhile, but I couldnt stay away too long haha. I will more than likely be getting a 58 gallon tank, and hopefully this weekend. Im just having a little trouble with the stock list. I will eventually be getting some lps coral, and a bubble tip...

I got an Aussie Acan a little while ago, it started off with 4 polyps, but had baby polyps that you couldnt see as well. They came on a plug, and I put the plug on a rock, hoping the acans would start to grow on the rock. Well that hasnt happened, they grew on the plug, but not the rock. Does...

Ive had this thing for awhile now. I posted it awhile ago but couldnt get the best of picture. I still cant figure out what it is. When I first saw it a few months ago it looked exactly like a tiny bubble tip anemone, it had bubble tips and everything. The bubble tips have kind of gone away, but...

I got some brine shrimp with spirulina for the fish yesterday, and I was wondering if coral like: frogspawns, candy canes, acans, and brain coral can eat it too? Is there anything in spirulina that will help the coral?Usually I feed them mysis shrimp, and cyclop-eeze.

This might be a beginner question. I know that some fish do this, and I'm pretty sure it has to do with their mood, but Im not positive. But anyways last night I got a lawnmower blenny. At the lfs he was pretty light in color, he was still light in color in the bag when I was driving home. When...

Hey guys, its been awhile since Ive been on here . I have a 20 gallon tank with about 35 lbs of live rock,a nd 20 lbs of live sand. I mainly keep lps coral such as: a frogspawn, aussie acans, trachyphyllia brain, etc. I also have some softies. For fish right now I have a sixline wrasse, and a...

Ive had my kenya tree for quite awhile now, and the branches are finally starting to fall off. Two have already fell off, and I can see another about to break off. The two that have already fell off are just sitting in the sand now, on their side. How should I go about attaching these next to...

I have a frogspawn with two heads. Over a month ago I noticed that both heads had grown one more mouth. So each head has two mouths. I have been feeding each head mysis shrimp a couple times a week. I have also been dosing the tank with calcium. About 3 days ago I noticed that one of the heads...

Lately Ive taken a break from getting fish, to stock up on coral for my 20 gallon high. Currently, I have no fish, just lps coral, and softies. I have about 34 lbs of live rock, and 20 lbs of live sand. The tank has been set up for about 4 months. The fish that I dont want are...

I got a few pieces of live rock the other day. I noticed something that kind of looked like a manjano(sp.), but didnt really resemble it too much. I thought it might be some other type of hitchhiker anemone. The tentacles look exactly like a BTA, they have bubbles on them, and everything. I was...

Hey guys, I just got this acan a few days ago. It seems to be doing well, it has four heads, with 2 baby heads coming out of the bottom. As you can see I have it on the sand now, but should I put it on a rock to spread? The acan is attached to a plug, and I have a small circular rock that I can...

I just got this frag yesterday. Im thinking green bay packers? One polyp is really bright green, and the others are darker. And I posted the secondtle bit ago, but didnt really get a clear answer. What do you think?

Ive had this tank for about 4 months now, and just wanted to post some pics of where it started, and where it is now. No fish right now. Im thinking of adding just one of these, what do you guys think? Either sixline wrasse, some type of pseudochromis, true perc clown, yellow coris wrasse(might...

I have had these zoas for awhile, and dont really know if they have a name for them or what. But does anyone know what these are in the first pic? And the second pic is just of some whammin watermelons/eagle eyes I got yesterday. Sorry for the bad pics.

Im looking to buy an Aussie Acan frag, and I have few zoanthids that I am looking to buy. If you have these or anything like them pm me with prices. Pretty much Im looking for intense colored oranges, and reds. It doesnt have to be a frag pack, but I would like it to be so I dont just buy a few...
