    Hermit Crabs with Fighting Conch

    I have one fighting conch in my 55 and it keeps the sand very very clean. They grow to be a lot bigger than you would think, the last time I saw all of mine was 8 months ago and it was almost 6 inches then

    300 gallon/ 55 gallon refuge

    I am considering a 300 gallon tank sometime (hopefully sooner than later) Right now I have a 55 gallon and I'm looking to make that my refuge. Is that too small. If it is what would you recommend for a 300 gallon or what size would my 55 work for? Thank you

    feather dusters?

    so if I got some would I have too much light? Should I just keep them kindof sheltered in the sand, under my LR.

    feather dusters?

    I was reading on this site that feather dusters are very light sensitive. Does that mean they want the light or they don't like lots of light? I have 260 watt PC's.

    coral addition?

    The worst part is that is the only fish that is undiscardable (girlfriends favorite) so I'm going to have to wait until I have to make a grave for him.

    Real quick question

    hey I have read that their is a danger zone between 3-5 inches of sand. Any truth to that, because of that I went out and got more sand, and now I'm sitting at about 5-6 inches, plus I have burrowers.
