My Huma trigger just died. So angry, sad, annoyed, I don't know what. Redid a bunch of my plumbing and installed a UV just a couple weeks ago. Guessing contaminants. Possibly PVC glue not dried enough or some residue on the UV or . 3 fish in a 125 and all the time I've invested to make...

This is a thread for the pluses and minuses of doing an Octopus species tank with a reef in a 30 gallon. No need for the obvious(like fully sealing tank). Is this a realistic possibility?

I don't have a filter for my qt. How often/much should I do for water changes? Its a 30 gallon housing a 3" Porc Puffer and 3" Huma Trigger. I'm currently administering hypo for what I think is velvet, does that affect anything? Is it worthwhile to raise the temperature to 80+ from its...

Can anyone suggest a cheap meter that I can use to check my tank for stray voltage? Something that can be found in a nationwide store a definite plus.

When moving a sick fish from display to a quarantine do we still acclimate them? I have a couple fish I need to do a fw dip and then move them to my quarantine tank because it looks like I have velvet or ich present in my display.

The foxface in my tank appears to be suffering from HLLE. Part of his nose was almost missing and is now healed back, but now his tail is nearly gone. The Lateral Line is clearly visible and his body just looks unhealthy, his eye are also very cloudy. I'm afraid part of the issue is from...

Poof, gone, wtf? How does a big round Porcupine Puffer completely disappear from a tank??

I already have a chocolate chip star. Is there any other stars that would play well in the tank? I had(and lost) a brittle, probably due to acclimation shock, but I'd like to get one(or several) that will be seen more often.

I picked one up for my tank. Supposed to get about baseball size which is fine. I was hoping for more info on their habits and stuff though.

At what point do you trim back your chaeto? I have a 30 gallon or so refugium. Should I just let the chaeto fill the whole thing?

Whats the easiest anemone to care for? Is there anything that can survive ~30 Nitrates and 400 watts PC lighting in a 125?

In my nightmare my fish tank water is really low and all my fish are dead. Then I realize that someone broke into my house and stole all of my live rock. How random is that?

Just got answered as matt Millen is fired. Boo!!!

It almost looks like hlle, but I though wrasse couldnt get that. The fish is eating fine and is maybe a little more shy then usual, but not much. All water params are fine, Nitrates were a bit high around 60 or so because my protein skimmer wasn't working. I didn't think Nitrates that high...

I'm looking for a Mag 18 or similarly powered pump for like 100$ shipped. Cannot be an external, gravity fed pump since it needs to sit in or above my sump.

Are there any external pumps I can mount above my sump and pump water up into it and then up into my tank?

I just picked up a foxface and he's acclimating now. He's obviously stressed and his colors have darkened, he has dark colorings all over his normally white body. Is this normal?
