    sand amount

    Hey all, I forgot to ask, how much sand will I need. my tank is a 55gallon octagon. Also, can I just scoop out all the crushed coral and put the sand directly in? Or what do I have to do to it first. (I moved last summer and all my books are still packed out in the garage somewhere.) Thanks.

    snails and my water change

    Hello, I recently purchased 2 turbo snails. Usually when I clean my tank I take out my fish. Does everyone else do that? It seems to be less stress for them that way. So my question is, do I take the snails out with the fish or just leave them in the tank while I clean? thanks for any advise. :)

    bristle worms

    Hi, so I found out I have bristle worms. I looked them up on google, my question is; do I wait for them to get big before I buy the crab that eats them? There are conflicting opinions on google. Any advise from experienced people would be great. Thanks.

    turbo snails??

    Hey thanks for answering my questions! So these worms i have, they look like little catapillars. I can't post pic cause my daughter broke my digital camera. What are feather dusters? And so did these things come in my live rock and I just never noticed them before.

    turbo snails??

    Hi, I'm still new to this hobby. I don't have extensive equipment or really fancy fish. I do have a couple off questions. First question; I just bought 2 turbo snails yesterday, they have decided to clean my live rock. Can you relocate them to where ever you want? Just reach in and move them...
