I'm debating making an order (well, had the cart filled when I thought my final price would be $80, but my $20 credit came off of the live good total not the real total, so now i'm not sure I want to spend $100 to order. It's hard enough coming up with 79, worth of stuff to order for one...

I tested my water today. I have ammonia and nitrates. Ammonia was in the harmful range and nitrates were b/w zero and 20. (strip test). last week, I had no ammonia, and had nitrites...(didn't test for nitrates). I started the cycle with raw shrimp start of jan. (75gl tank, sand (not live yet) a...

I'm cycling my75gl tank. I put in raw shrimp. I don't have ammonia yet (tested today). BUT the ph was off the charts. I have sand (not alive) and two big pieces of rock. (one not alive-one alive) Before I had cc or bare bottom with a ton of lr and I didn't have a problem with ph. what should...

I need a basic light for my 75gl, I'm NOT going to have corals. I'll have lr, ls, and inverts, I guess I'll have to please dh. It's 4ft long. the last set of lights...well we have a rule now 'i'm not allowed to burn down the house'. Yep, the last set kinda...well didn't catch on fire, but sent...

I'm going through my stash of rock...yeah, I have a stash of rock... One piece looks like limestone. I KNOW feather dusters used to live on it because I can see the old tubes. My question is, will it hurt the tank or mess with the ph? It used to be in my tank, I just don't know which tank or...

I've figured out that it's an Emperor, but i'm not sure what model or for what size tank...I know it was on my 75gl in the past, but I also had another filter on the tank. I need to buy new filter pads, plus I'd like to just run one filter. Thanks!!!

okay, it's been way too long since I've set up a tank. The sand (dry-not alive) is already in the tank. I have my ro unit hooked up and the fun part of filling the tank starts. I don't have enough salt on hand to mix for the whole tank. Can I just start adding water, throw in my shrimp, then...

I have bag of sand-not live sand (Natures Ocean marine subtraite (sp). Just the regular sand in a bag you get at *****. I was told (here) I needed to cure it so it wouldn't clump together. I've tried searching (here and on my computer) but I can't find the info. I need to start, but want to make...

I've had saltwater since...no clue, 5 years or so. It's been about oh, 11 months now. My poor star and lr have been in a 20gl since jan. I have sand, to cure it, I need to rinse it, then add a cup of ls and mix it once a day for a week, right? I have a ro unit. we're setting it up in the garage...

I've had starfish for over 7 years. My brittle and serpent lived over five years. I've had my current brittle since Aug 2005. I went to get shrimp today, and figured out that I've been getting cooked shrimp. I feel like an idiot because I've grown up around shrimp and should know the...

I'll be taking down my 55gl and 75gl tanks. They'll be empty of water for at least a year or so. Husband told me tanks can go bad if they sit emtpy. If this is true, what do I need to do to prevent my tanks from going bad? Once we have a house of own, I'll set the tanks back up, it'll just be...

It says it was moved, but it appears to be deleted. Why? If can't get my account back, just say so. (I forgot about the aquarium or I would have posted it here, rather than New Hobbist) I'm Sinner's Girl and I'd like to know how get the password to my account. I already contacted the webmaster...

I’m Sinner’s Girl. I have two starfish, a green brittle and a chocolate chip. I bought them both from swf.com in August 2005. I’ll be moving soon, and then moving again. I don’t want to stress the stars with two moves close together and we’re trying to save money. My stars are free to a good...
