As title says

Ok...so as the title says some of my zoas seemed to have died and I am not sure what's really going on. All of my corals are fine and open except this small isolated rock that I've had in my tank for about 4 weeks. It had a frag of about 7 polyps...and now they are all shriveled up and pretty...

save my orange zoos from a gsp infestation? I like the gsp, but it grows very fast and I am not thrilled about them pulling a blitzkrieg on my zoos...now they are "enveloping" the zoo tubes and making them close. They look suffocated... So I read reefkprZ' post on how to frag zoos....lift the...

Hey everyone...here's the story: Got 2 shrimp @ my LFS two days ago, a peppermint and a cleaner, both medium size.After drip acclimating for over 3 hours I introduced them to my tank by hand...they seemed ok, it was night time, lights off (LED moonlights on). They were both roaming around the...

In everyone's experience, what is the best detritus cleaning invertebrate out there? I currently have 12 hermit crabs (2 red, 10 blue legged)...they seem to always be cleaning the rocks. And I have 2 Astrea snails...mostly hanging out on the glass and sometimes cleaning the rocks too. However...

Hey everyone...what size of QT do you guys go with? I am curious because if you are running a nano, I would expect the range of fish size to be rather small, and therefore smaller size QTs... I am trying to get a good feel for how to set up the QT for my own 20g...it's done cycling now and I...

Hi everyone, so I have started my 20g nano...it's been cycling for about 3 weeks now. I have 21 lbs of LR (from LFS), 20 lbs of LS, mixing IO salt. All my parameters have actually leveled off at: SG = 1.024 pH = 8.0 Ammonia = 0 Nitrite = 0 Nitrate = 5.0 dKH = 9, 161.1 ppm Ca 2+ = 280 The...

Anyone have any experience with these aquarium chillers? I am considering one of these for my 20g nano since the AZ summer is almost here. I would like some feedback from anyone who has one and how you have mounted/installed it. I have a glass tank so drilling a hole for bulkhead installation...

Diary for my 20 gallon tank...it's only been 3 days since I set it up so I am still waiting on the cycle. Brand new tank...I hate to do this, but near the window is the only place I can put it for now. I am anticipating some temperature issues because of this...any advice short of a chiller...

Ok...so I am in the process of setting up my 20g tank and to upgrade the stock NO light I was considering a 24in Nova Extreme 4x24W T5 HO @ 10K/460 nm. My goal is to have a few hardy corals (zoas, leathers, etc) and eventually down the road have a BTA. But I wanna be ready for it all now while...
