    update on Clown Trigger with clouded eye

    I used Eye Fungex and had very good luck on my fish. It took about 1-2 dosage to start seeing the result. The tricky part is how to put the drops on the eyes. Timmy

    Please help...How to remove Bioballs

    I have a FO 125 gallon tank with 125 lr, 2" ls, ps and w/d filter. The tank has been cycled for 8 months. Nitrate is high and I heard removing BioBalls will help reduce Nitrate. I understand there are steps to remove BioBalls. I'd appreciate if someone could tell me how or what web site to...

    Digital pH meter ?

    I have it, really like them for accuracy and not have to mess with the chemical. One thing to pay attention to is the probe, kind of sensitive and crack if some fish picks at it. Best place to put the probe is in the sum. I paid $84.95 (meter, probe, and calibration solution).

    BERLIN TURBO SKIMMER

    Just wonder how you all connect the pump to the Berlin Turbo PS. Is the pump laying down right next to the skimmer or is a hose used for intake so the unit can sit outside the sump?

    How many hours?

    I heard 10-14 hours of proper light needed for reef tank with variety of hard/soft corals. How many hours do you have your lights on? How long have you had your tank? <img src="graemlins//urrr.gif" border="0" alt="[urrr]" />

    Maxima clam

    H20, never mind... I found the answer: Clams receive food from the zooxanthellae but they also siphon water in from a slit on one side of the mantle then release water from a circular hole on the other side. This process allows the mantle to pick up any plankton that is in the water. <img...

    Algae Blooms

    I had emerald crabs and they ate corals such as flower pot and leather. Does anybody else have the same problem? <img src="graemlins//urrr.gif" border="0" alt="[urrr]" />

    Maxima clam

    Thanks everybody for your inputs. I decided to purchase the maxima clam and put it on the top. It opens after very short time. Hope it lasts with my PC's light. <img src="graemlins//urrr.gif" border="0" alt="[urrr]" />

    Emerald crab how many are enough?

    I had 2. They ate corals like flower pot, plate, leather. So I had to take them out (don't think it's easy, just by luck). Don't get crabs unless you want to see your corals at their meals. <img src="graemlins//urrr.gif" border="0" alt="[urrr]" />
