    One more Tang Question

    My Yellow Tang gets this way at the end of the day, or if I check at night. By Morning he is as Bright Yellow and Healthy looking as ever. FishGirl probably can tell you more about it, in fact I'm surprised she hasn't replied to this yet, she really loves her Tang! -Dennis

    Starfish question

    I added a Bahama Starfish about 6-8 weeks ago and really like it. He moves all around the tank eating algea of the glass, and whatever he finds on the Live Rock. I put a small (1/2") cocktail shrimp in about once a week. I put it in the tank then place him so one leg/arm just touches the shrimp...

    Salt Residue?

    I have this problem around the openings of my top. I have a glass flip open front with a plastic 3-4" strip on the back that can be cut out for filter/etc placement. I get the salt buildup around the edges, and where the plastic connects to the glass. Also the top of my Emporor 400 filter. If...

    LOWERING PH

    I use Kent Supperbuffer dkH, at the suggestion of my LFS where I bought some Liverock. I needed to raise mine a point or two but it should also lower it if too high since it claims to buffer from (going from memory here so I may be off) 8.0 to 8.3. You can also get PH down, but I would think the...

    new seahorse is not eating

    I recall seeing a special "feeder" designed especially for feeding seahorses. Perhaps someone else knows more about it and can give some additional details. I think it may have been on a site that sold live brine shrimp. If I find it again I'll post the website later. -Dennis

    Nitrate Removal System

    I just checked the saltaquarium.about.com site because I remembered seeing a DIY section there. Sure enough, there is a page with half a dozen or so denitrafactor projects. http://saltaquarium.about.com/pets/s...ldenitrate.htm -Dennis

    Aquarium Photography

    Using a tripod will really help, especially if you are using a digital camera. A regular camera with high shutter speed and fast film will help if you have very active fish. -Dennis

    Question for DennisH

    Hi FishGirl, No, unfortunatly they both died. I had lost a yellow tail damsel that had been 'pale' since a few days after I got it. After it died I noticed the Domino damsel starting to lose color, and about a week later he died. Shortly after that I noticed some white spots on one of the...

    Aeration question

    As I understand it, the air bubbles from the airstone do NOT aerate the water at all, it is the surface aggitation they cause as they raise to the top that mixes up the top layer (about 1/8 inch) of aerated surface water. The more surface aggitation you have, the more oxygen is available below...

    beginner ? on food

    I use a 5oz dixie cup about half full with warm/hot tap water to melt my frozen brine shrimp/plus cubes, then dump some of it into each of my tanks. The fish all go crazy over it!! I only feed this about twice a week, otherwise feeding some zooplankton, flakes, or pellets. I have heard of some...

    Best testing kit without paying an arm and a leg

    I recently bought a FasTesT marine kit (pH-Am-Ni-Na) specifically because I was so frustrated at trying to decifer the color of the tests (pH test in particular) with the Aquarium Pharmaceuticals Test Kits. I basically had to guess from 8.0 to 8.2 to 8.4 depending on how I looked at the test...
