temp acclimate

I recently moved some xenia from one tank to another. Since doing so the xenia doesn't seem to extend nearly as much as it use to and is not pumping as often. I belive that I acclimated it long enough and the other corals in the tank are doing fine. Any thoughts or advice?

I have recently setup a new 30 gallon aquarium which is going to contain primarily corals. I thought that I would maybe add one or tow fish and a Fire Shrimp. Does anyone have good recommendations of fish to add (other than Clown fish)?

Does anyone know if a Fire Shrimp would be safe to keep with a Crocea Clam?

I might be interested in the setup. Is this a glass aquarium? Do you have more pictures? What are the dimensions of the cabinet?

I have a lemonpeel angelfish that has been picking at botton polyps. I've heard that some anglefish can be hit or miss. Are there any corals that might be compatable with angles? Perhaps some LPS, SPS, gorgonia, or leathers???

If she decides that she doesn't want him as a mate and kills him should I try to add another male right away or wait awhile and let her clam down?

I've had two percula clowns in my tank for about 3 1/2 months. Over this time the larger clown (presumably the female) would occassionaly harras the other but for the most part they were fine. Over the past couple of days, however, the female has been continually harrasing the male to the...

I have a pair of Percs and have had a Sabae anemone in the tank for about 6 weeks. The clowns have not really gone near the anemone at all until earlier tonight. When I looked at the tank tonight the female was completely harrassing the male and male went in the Sebae for protection. Every time...

Would more frequent feedings reduce the likelyhood of nipping at corals?

Are there any corals that are safe with a lemonpeel angel? I had some LR with some zoo'z on it and after awhile they started to close up. I later add some blue mushrooms. They were fine for about three weeks and then started to shrival up. I think I have determined that my Lemonpeel is...

I was thinking about fabricating some sort of shield but I am not exactly sure how to do it yet. Is it ok if some light gets in or should the main tank be completely dark?

I just setup a hang-on the back refugium over the weekend. As I understand, I need to keep the light for the refugium on 24 hours a day. By doing so, there is enough indirect light getting into the main tank so that maybe 1/3 of the tank is not dark at night. Is this OK? Will it cause any...

how much do you feed at a time? Is just a pinch sufficient?

I can't figure out if I am over feeding or under feeding my tank. It's a 30 gallon tank and I have the following livestock: 2 percula clowns, 1 lemonpeel angel, 1 fire shrimp, 1 peppermint shrimp, 5 hermit crabs, and about 10 snails. I have been giving a pinch of Tetra MircoCrabs Cyclop-eeze...

Is there any reason to wait before I add it?

Great looking tank and a great thread. This is what America is all about! Thanks for your service and its great to see everyone steping up to the plate to help out.

I have just converted an AquaClear hang-on filter into a refugium to utilize in addition to the built-in wet/dry trickle filter on my 32 gallon tank. The instruction that came with the Mud indicate that I should wait 2 weeks before adding the caulerpa. Is this necessary since my tank has...
