I agree with Blaze buckets with lids. Try to keep as much water as possible. I dipped my coral and rock in a differnt bucket of water before adding it to the dt.

I only do weekly water changes about 20gal With a skimmer in the sump. I have a uv that came with tank but dont use it.

Some where i read That 1 turbo snail pure 20gals not sure where i read this but i had a problem with hair algae. drop 25 in my tank with 50 blue legged hermit crabs gone in a couple of weeks.

That is good deal lfs around here are 6 to 8 dollars a pound i payed under a dollar for all mine

I have a pair of cbs with 5 pepperment

Nate good pics hopefully this is what they were looking for. thanks didnt mean to wake you up.

Looks like a bubble tip.

I Think I have the same thing as you in my tanks. I have hundreds of them I will try to get my brother-in-law to take a pic and post it.

You change your filter metia Change to RO water when doing water exchanges. Which I should start doing myself on all my tanks. The is also try a phosphate spounge. That is questionable, had friends try with no luck. I also heard changing your lights. But that im not sure on either.

Have You checked the Phosephate levels. Also try pulling as much hair algae yourself during your next water exchange. I m not but when I had direct sun light on my 45 gallon the hair algae took over.

greenwolf i would say this is true. I had a rock anenomes that took two of my clowns, so if a mandarin would make contact with one it would probably have the same result

This is just a suggestion but I would add 10 blue legged hermits and about 2 more snails. Maybe if you have the room a lawnmower blenny. I had problems with my 120 ang i add 100 hermits 40 snails and had a lawnmower. it clear up in a week or two.

How many snails and hermit crabs do you have? And how big is the tank?

Sorry that is 1 of my favorite pieces in the tank but what you dont see is that there is 4 on the rock that started as 1.

No they are about half way if you look at the full tank shot they are just below and to left of the red mushroom rock
