I purchased this unit and It arrived today, set it up and got it running with no problems after reading this forum, ive decided to take off the air-flow valve off just to give it direct air flow, and I put the top of the bubbles about 3/4 inch from the top of the black peice that leads to the...

Bought a queen conch and an anemone crab. also purchased the biocube nano skimmer got it for $43 shipped to my door. other then that nothing else new just waiting to get some shrooms and or some hammer coral

more water changes, clean your filtering media, dont feed as much or as frequent, vacuum sand bed? might have some left over food creating this nitrate build up, invest is some macro algae.

I have 3 fish and an eel, thats it for livestock rest I am just going to put corals. i also have the 150w MH 24ap. 2 false percs 1 fire fish 1 snowflake eel (8 inches)

Sorry, I just got to your thread, I'd put the fire fish, then two clowns then the eel. Wait till your ammonia goes to 0 after it reaches 0, your nitrite's will start to come down and soon you will get a slight spike if any in nitrates and then those will recede. SG: 1.026 Temp: 79 I have 9...

Snowflake Eel is a cool fish, he stays in his den for the most part, they are nocturnal predators so they "sneak up" on the fish at night, usually just cruises by them, sometimes if the fish gets near his opening to the den he kinda comes out, but I dont think he will do harm - If he wanted to...

Well 80% opened up they are very nice colored a baby blue, some vibrant green with orange, i bought it for 60$ at my LFS kind of pricey but it has alot of nice coraline algae on it and probably about 40-60 polpys on it, which are many not open yet and will grow on many of my rocks in my tank, so...

What kind of fish are they? Size? I have two clowns, a snowflake eel and a firefish in my 24ap. I feed them 1 cube of mysis every 2 days, my eel gets fed first since he is the aggressor and what ever is left the fish gladly eat up. I may get rid of the eel in a couple of months, he is about 8...

I bought some multi-colored polyps, they are zoo'as and the rock they are on have plenty of coraline algae on it hope it spreads. How long does it usually take for all the polyps to fully open, i brought it home and maybe 30% of them opened, i turned off the lights and soon after they closed...

Well, all parems read 0, SG: 1.026 temp is about 80 i want to purchase maybe a zenia and/or some blue or red shrooms how long would you guys say untill i am ready for it, bout another month?

Well i purchased a 6-Stage RO/DI unit, should be here in less then a week. I also have decided that I am going to purchase the Biocube Nano Skimmer, ive read great stuff on it and its really cheap. Tommorow I am going to do a 50% water change, and on friday I am going to pick up some more...

Thanks for the help, love this forum - yeah ill def go purchase more snails - and good call on the nas snails ill go pick up a couple 2-morrow.

I added 5 turbo snails, and 3 blue legged hermits and 1 domino damsel. Eventually I want 10 total snails, 15 hermits, 1 shrimp. I bought the damsel just to have something for my eyes, I dont think I am going to keep it forever because I want to eventually have (1 Flame Angel, 2 Black/White...

I would imagine a very light grain wax, with a very non abrasive cloth might "buff" it out, I also have a couple scratches that are small but to the owner they are huge.

Thanks for the comments, yeah I heard great things on the Bio-cube skimmer and it is cheap like you guys said, keep on posting if you will. Thanks.

Hello everyone, I have a 24AP and I recently have been looking at a couple protein skimmers, pretty much I just want one that works, ive read good things on ASM and CPR and AquaC but the true question is... WHICH ONE IS THE ULTIMATE? Now I know there are some nice $200+ skimmers but I dont feel...

Thanks, although I have to give the credit to my girlfriend she did the layout, i just moved the rocks once they were placed to give it its final touches. sidenote: I am looking for a good skimmer, one that wont give me microbubbles like the fission nano skimmer does, my spending limit is around...

Tank ammonia is 0, Nitrites still spiking and Nitrates are like 40ppm. Water looks crystal clear, no signs of pods or any thing, have very little red slime on rocks, green fuzzy algae, red fuzzy algae and some blades of algae looks like grass. I think the water change I did helped with my...

Yeah I figured as much, I decided to purchase a 6-stage RO/DI filter on ----, i found it for $135 shipped I suppose I am going to need it so I can get my top offs. Hopefully in a week my readings will be lower, my ammonia seems to be going down but very slowly I think the water change helped a...

I live in texas, I dont top off because I dont have really good water quality, every where I read people top off with distilled water, but couldnt topping off with pre-mixed LFS water serve the same purpose its rated at 1.023 SG...
