there isnt another powerhead in the same chamber but there is one in the third chamber. the intake and return lines are on pretty tight and if that was the problem wouldnt water be dripping out as well? there is about 4 inches of water above the powerhead running the chiller. is it possible...

i have a 24 gallon nano. up and running for 7 months now. never had a problem with micro bubbles. i bought an arctica nano chiller because i live in florida and my water was getting to hot. now i have a lot of micro bubbles and it is driving me crazy. i have a maxi jet 900 running the...

i just purchased a candy cane about a week and a half ago. i like the way it looks but i am not sure what to do as far as feeding the coral. someone told me to spot each polyp and someone else said that it will feed on the phytoplankton that i put in the tank. any ideas or suggestions?

so i finally figured out how to post a picture... the stock list is as follows: 12 lbs of live rock 30 lbs live sand candycane kenya tree yellow polyp blue mushroom red mushroom hammer coral zooanthids 2 emerald crabs 12 turbos 10 hermits or various colors

finally a picture

im going to pay you cash... the coral i got from you are doin great..the hammer coral opened up almost emediately and look awesome and the kenya tree was slumped over when i first put it in but then this morning it was sitting straight up and lookin good. the zoos have half opened some of them...

my question concerns the candaycane coral. i have heard mix answers as far as feeding goes. some say to spot feed each polyp and some say if you just put some defrosted mysis shrimp in the tank the candycane will feed on that. also phytoplankton was suggested for feeding the candycane. i...

so i just picked up my first corals. 2 mushrooms...one red...one blue....i picked up a colony of about 20 yellow polyps and also a candy cane..i just did some reading on the candy cane and found that they are considered hard to care for. if anyone knows anything about the candycane corals as...

i agree with that if its not broke dont fix it. i actually did the opposite from you i just gave a friend of mine some of my snails and bought some more hermit crabs. i would watch the snails move accross my LR and leave white strips from where they ate everything of the LR. i know the stuff...

patrick answer your phone...its phil..your tank looks good i want to come by and see it

Thank you for the advice, thats a good idea.

that seems to be the consensus. do you or anyone have any advise on snails? i have 15 small to med size turbos and 5 large ones. i have heard from other people that more of a variety would better. if anyone has any thoughts please let me know.

thank you for your response. do you think that the salinity should stay at 1.025 or just for the time being? if i did decide to go with all live rock filter system does the live rock in the back filter chambers need any maintenence or just let it be? also a few people have told me that 8...

it seems that the general concensus is that 8 emarald crabs is to many. so the question is how do i get the crabs from my tank to the lfs safely? also the turbo snails like to stay on the glass but they have also been all over the live rock and the sand.

i think my lfs is guitly of taking advantage of the new guy a little bit. i understand business is business. another question i have is about lighting. my lights are on a timer and when they come on they come on all at the same time and when they turn off it happens all at once. is it a good...

they are definately emarald crabs. 8 of them. and six hermit crabs. yea this is my first tank my girlfriend got it for me for xmas and she thought she would be the one to take care of it. i am absolutely already addicted. it is my baby and just as expensinve as a real baby. i am going to look...
