    Stocking a 29 gallon biocube???

    My absolute favorite fish was a sixline wrasse. They have a ton of personality and are incredibly active. Mine always cruised back and fourth around the live rock and was very playful.

    Hermits or No Hermits?

    I LOVE my hermits (blue legs), they are fantastic cleaners, and have great personality... I think you said a 125? I would say you could easily do between 30-50 without a problem. I have 8-12 in my 25 gal and love them. They will go after the snails if they don't get enough food, or need a new...

    Help Need ID, Green Carpet of Death

    I believe (but am not an expert) that cyano can be caused by high phosphates, so look at trying to bring yours down... Bring the lights down for sure... Also if (as a last resort) you can't get rid of it, LFS will usually sell products that get rid of it without harming fish/corals... I had to...

    damsel removal???????????????

    Haha, this thread brought a huge smile to my face, along with some memories... I had a blue devil, I tried the bottle method but i still had to take out almost all of the LR in my tank to scoop him out. Even then it was a battle... Best of luck to you!

    Lighting question

    I have been using glass over my tank, and it doesn't cut down on the lighting to terribly much if you wash it off every week when you do a water change. One advantage to glass is it cuts down on the salt creep or spray that egg crate wouldn't catch

    Hey guys, Glad i found this thread! My 130 PC just stopped working, The moonlights still work, and so do the fans, but both lights are out... I checked the bulbs, and its not them. Is this the ballast then? Is there a fuse that could have gone? I am certainly not an electrician, but I am...

    Question on light height...

    Just a random inquiry I guess, But why (if at all) do people elevate their SW lights off the tank 4-8 in.? I realise that the MHs are HOT but is there a reason for doing it with PCs or T5s? Thanks! Drew
