goodwin: with a tank that size and as natural reef setting as it is, have you had any fish spawn?

I am in the market for some new or additional powerheads since i am upgrading my tank. I would like to get something with a controller (like the tunze multicontroller). I am wondering what is the best option and are they worth it? I am partial to tunze since i have there nanostreams now, but if...

ive read you should keep fish in QT for about a month after buying them so ich or any other parisite dies off. Is this overkill? As for size i think i'll pick up something like a 30l to make sure its large enough. I'm a HUGE tang fan so i want to make sure there is atleast a little room for...

thanks everyone. I figure if hes not getting any food he would probably be in rough shape after 2+ weeks and hes swimming around and everything. I'll try wedging the seaweed in a rock to see otherwise i'll try garlic. If that doesnt help them i guess he will just have to pick my rocks clean!

I recently purchased a Kole Tang (about 2 1/2 weeks ago) and i can't get him to eat. He constantly is picking at the rocks and glass, but he wont eat off the veggie clip. I also havn't seen him eat any mysis or brine that i put in the tank (my yellow tang engulfs both!). Any hints? is there...

I am finally going to take everyones advice and set-up a QT tank. What size tank should it be? I have a spare 10g laying around, but i was thinking if i QT tangs that it would be to small for any period of time. Also what type of filtration should be on it? should you run copper? do you need...

my buddy has a set that is on a 30 day cycle and adjusts the brightness based on the moon cycle. I've never seen them at night to see how the tank looks, but i've heard they can help clowns to spawn and things too

I am interested in moonlights for my reef tank. I am wondering if they really serve any benifit to the tank. And if they do are there certain brands or things i should be looking for?

i know my LFS's will... they sell xenia frags for $35!

Great... i thought it was a good thing. I moved it about 2 weeks ago because my RBTA was touching it and ever since i moved it to the new location it has probably doubled in size. I think i will get some rubble or plugs and attach them and see if anyone wants them because i dont want anymore...

So i came home today and found a few branches of my kenya tree laying on the sand and rocks in my tank. Is this a way kenya tree's reproduce? I dont know if its under distress or if this is a good thing. help!

Thats a great site. So can you potentially get one of all 6 families (well only 5 since one family gets to large) and not worry about fighting?

I agree srfisher, i have been told by many people that my current 55g is way to small for a yellow tang. I have had him for over 2 years and he's doing great. I know this wasnt on the list, but i think i'm going to get a kole tang. thoughts on that tang?

the reason i didnt mention a kole tang is the ones i've seen aren't real colorful and thats what i'm looking for. Also what i'm hearing is that if i want to get something like a sailfin i'd need to get two and i think even a 125 might be to small for that. I really want the powder but i dont...

I am in the market for another tang. I currently have a yellow tang, 2 clowns, and 4 blue chromis. I know there are tangs i need to stay away from since they might fight with my yellow. I was looking at a powder blue, blue, blond naso, sailfin, and white cheek. Any one have any other ideas? or...

I have a Rose BTA that recently moved and is now touching some of my SPS corals. Where its touching the SPS coral its starting to turn colors. the question is will this cause the entire coral to die? or will the rest of it live and just that little part be affected? I dont want to rearrange my...

i would suggest staying away from wrasses all together. even the "safe" ones can be tempermental. Even the friendly six-line is a punk to all new fish added after him.

I currently have a 55g reef tank w/ a aqua C Remora HOB Skimmer, but am upgrading my tank to a 90g that will have a sump. I am looking for the best skimmer for my money. I am thinking about spending between 3-400, but would be happy to spend less if possible. Also, the skimmer can be a sit in...
