Hey everyone, I am back! I don't know if any of the old members would remember me, or if they still use this forum, but back in 2006 I was on this forum every day. I set up a 150 gallon tank back then. In 2008, I went out of the country for 2 years, and then I was away from my home while at...

I know that this does not answer your question, but perhaps this could help through the years we would have times where unwanted algea would take over, and then we made this sweet little filtration called a turf scrubber. I dont have time to take pictures right now as i am leaving to go to the...

Thanks Meowzer for your comment. time is the key to having nice coraline on the LR

As some of you may remember, we started this tank about 4 years ago. We have had much success, along with disappointments. Since I recently got back from my 2 year mission in Argentina, we have been trying to get the tank back up into pristine conditions, and have decided to start placing some...

I plan on doing a 23% water change today or tomorrow. He is still active as ever and has not shown any signs of discomfort or disease else where. Feel free to offer any ideas you may have as to the cause and treatment of this particular condition. Thanks!

Thanks Ccampbell. Any idea as to what may be the cause of this? If at all possible, I would like to know or better understand how to prevent something like this in the future. Could it be a bacteria infection? I know that Myracin 2 helps with bacteria infection; if I am unable to get him out of...

Hi Everyone, I picked up this Fowleri Tang from a LFS. It was in very good condition and had been at this place for over a month without any problems. The LFS had the fish in Copper water for treatment. The fish was in QT for 2-3 weeks and no signs of problems. Once put in the display tank, the...

How is the build coming? There have yet to be any updates since the delivery? I hope all is going well and I am sure I speak for many people here, pictures and update!

Hello All, Current Lights: 2 36" 2X96 PC Aqualight Double Linear Strip Retrofit Kit. 1 set is broken and needs to be replaced. 1 set's bulbs need to be replaced; hence, the new lighting system. We are looking to upgrade our lighting to T5's. We were hoping to get some input on a few good...

Thank you all for your input. Today was the first time the pair came out together to eat. The Female joined suit a minute after the Male began eating Krill. We will be trying Silversides and Ghost Shrimp once we obtain it and I will let you know if they display any different feeding habits. As...

SantaMonica, I finally took the plunge... Background: 150DT, 30Gsump, clean sheet 15x11, maxijet1200, 2 23par floodlights, 1 jbj up and running for 2 1/2 weeks. I was wondering if you could give a few pointers. I know the pics are not the best. I will have to try to get more during daylight and...

Big, Thanks for the info. We have our own BFS RO/DI system. I did not do any changes throughout the "cycle." I will be doing a few 10%-20% changes here in a little bit. Hopefully it will solve the problem.

thanks for your input. I appreciate it.

I checked the parameters this evening. Nitrates are around 15 but ammonia was at 0. everything else is good.

Hello All, 4 1/2 weeks ago I began cycling a 30gal tank. I added the LR/LS, had a koralia 3, 50gal HOB filter, 10k light running 6 hrs and added shrimp/clam twice. During the whole process, I did not see any algae. Sadly, for the first 3 weeks I did not test the water. On Oct 5, we turned off...
