My new 29 tank has been gathering bubbles all over the place. theyre under the algae and are everywhere... mostly on the sand and rock. anyone have an idea?

It has come to my attention that my nitrates are dangerously high. I am going to do a water change of course but I want to do something long term. I have very limited money right now and I know I will be eventually buying the following: 1.) new protein skimmer to replace my seaclone 150 *P.O.S.*...

In my frag tank, I have crushed coral. I havent been keeping up on this tank so hair algae is every where and now Im tearing down the tank to make a refuge instead. Can I use the crushed coral in my display tank or will the hair algae get everywhere?

I would like to make a refugium out of a 20g high tank. I want to be able to hang my seaclone 100 on it I have a little giant inline pump. I have a 96w PC light for the tank which is too strong to just waste on macro algae so I would like to have a seperate compartment for frags. If you can...

sounds like an easy all in one but I hate most red sea products. cant hurt to ask right?

I fragged a few corals yesterday at work. I brought the home, glued them to some rock and put them in the tank. Today my green star polyp frag havent opened up at all and dont look like they are recovering at all... how much time do they need to recover?

Ive found a critter I cant figure out what it is... Its an oval, about the size of my pinky nail. Its stripped and the stripes all originate from the center. It has a raised back that makes it look like it has a bony spine. its light green and black... anyone have an idea?? sorry my camera is...

I have many questions but I feel that none of them are worthy of their own thread so Im going to bunch them all together... 1.) I dont understand whether or not to stir the sand... If I dont I get a gas build up or If I do it releases nitrates or something? 2.) Is there any way to control...

I had him on the forum before and but I didnt watch the thread for very long. He is for sale or trade, I am willing to trade for coral or reef safe fish (mosty other tangs, dwarf angels or copperbanded butterfly). I can ship but I will avoid it as much as possible. I live in NE Ohio and I drive...

I recently started working at ***** (yes, I know most Petcos are terrible stores but, this one is extremly nice and well kept) and I saw they tore down their display reef tank and were storing it in the back room. I asked the manager what they are doing with it and they said they'd sell it to me...

I really want my parents to buy me a saltwater reef master test kit for X-mas. I dont think they want to spend a ton of money on all salifert test kits... Does anyone make a dependable test kit besides salifert? Is there any good "all in 1"s??

A week or two ago I bought what I thought was baby blue ricordea... looked very nice. Then after discussing it on the forums here, I realized that they were just bleached out... I took them back to the LFS. They apologized, gave me my money back and threw in a few frags. They were as embarrased...

I just bought a seaclone 100 on E b @ y and it didnt come with instructions on how to properly adjust it. I have alot in my collection cup but Im pretty sure I can see a build up on the surface... whats the proper way to adjust the seaclone? ...the build up Im seeing is from being under...

A week or two ago I bought some red sea xenia. I brought it home, put it in my tank and it was awsome. It opened up about 75% on the first few days but not all the way and never pumped. A few days after that, a snail knocked the xenia frag off its perch and it flipped upside down landing xenia...

I have an algae problem. Im not sure what kinda algae it is but it is annoying!! Its not slime, its hairy, but not like hair algae, its shorter...like fuzzy. It ranges in color from yellowish green to green to grayish yellow, depending on how much mud is caked on it... my clean up crew arent...

My sand is terrible. Its really fine and when disturbed it blows all over my tank. It clouds my water. I think its safe to say its mud. The previous owner of my tank said that it was probably over 12 years old... Im tired of it messing up my tank and covering my rocks in dust. Im either going...
