BUMP! :D [ August 01, 2001: Message edited by: Little Fish ]

:eek: I have what I thought was dark pink/maroonish coraline algae, but now I am not sure after reading some other posts. It is growing all over the rocks and sand. Is this coraline algae or cynobacteria? Does coraline algae grow on the sand? It sure is pretty, whatever it is. My water...

Are you kidding?! I have been diving in Cayman, Cozumel and the Bahamas. I think Cayman has the best reefs of all, but If I were to pick any place to dive, I would go to Australia and dive the Great Barrier Reef. It's got to be AWESOME! :D :cool:

I agree with Hermit, B ionic is great.

Happy Anniversary! I am glad that you are here, you sure have given me and the rest of the gang a lot of good advice!

I have one more question about power compacts? Most of the sites have retrofit power compacts? What does retrofit mean? I see a price difference between retrofit and ABS but am not sure what the differnce is. They are the same wattage, size, etc... Thanks for your help!

Thanks A-Dawg! I am going to buy it today!

Bicolor, where did you find this skimmer for $69 on line? I can't find it for under $79. Thanks!!

Great! Then that is what I am going to get. Thanks for the advice everyone!

My skimmer on my 29g is a piece of crap. I would like to get a new one, but it seems that the small clear ones (not sure of name brand) that hang inside the tank are pieces of crap. It keeps falling apart. I would like some suggestions on what brand/model/type to get for a 29 gallon. Thanks!

Pufferlover is right on the money! Please make sure that they cannot get out of your tank, it may take a while but if there is a way, they will find it!!! I used to have a gold spotted moray, he would eat krill, shrimp, silversides, whatever I put in the tank, he would eat. Make sure that he has...

Thanks Zackt! I won't worry too much then!

My live rock is turning orange in places. This tank has been set up for almost 6 weeks with just live rock and 2 fish. Water conditions are good, is this normal? I have been waiting for purple algae to appear, is this orange algae? If so, is it good or bad?

COOL!

Mind does the same thing Rumble! They have such great personalities. Thanks for your help everyone!

Hi All, Today I moved my porcupine puffer over from my 29 gallon to my 60 gallon because he was getting too big. I should have came to this board to ask what the best way to move him was. Anyway, too late now. I got a big plastic bag and scooped him out with a large net. Of course, he panicked...

Hi! I have three questions: Question 1: I am starting a reef tank (60 gallon, 45 lbs of live rock) and my live rock is sitting on bare glass, no sand or coral. I would like to get a clean up crew. Do I need to have sand or coral for them? If not, what should I get? Question 2: I am curing my own...

Hmmm... I thought my puffer ate my eel too. I usually saw him every night, but noticed one night I didn't see him. The next day I took out all of my live rock looking for him, hoping that he had not been eaten. After all my live rock was out of the tank I remember reading about eels being great...

My LFS recommended that I don't put anything on the bottom of my reef tank. They said it would be much easier to clean. I was thinking about using live sand. Right now the live rock is sitting directly on the glass. Is it too late to add sand? The rock is still curing. I think sand looks much...
