Thank you

Yes your right, i am measuring in specific gravity....so i hope that the 1.023 level is where it should be at....Also i checked the salt level with the refractometer before i put the new water back into the tank so im still a little confused as to how it rose so much. But as i said before would...

Ok that makes sense, and yes im using one of the cheap coralife hydrometer... Also ive been mixing my own saltwater at home and just found out that they sell premixed saltwater at my lfs so would it be more consistant if i used theyre water versus making my own at home?

So this may seem like a very fundamental question to the fish tank expert, yet i need a answer that after two years of keeping fish tanks i thought i already and should very well know the answer to.....So here goes, When performing a water change roughtly 15-20% I start by taking water out of...

So what would be a safe way to remove the xenia without killing it so i can give it back tothe lfs?

I have my welso on a nice ledge in my tank, and on the corner of the ledge is one small polyp of xenia. Ive spaced the two far enough apart so that they cant touch but the welso keeps scooting himself over the the edge and letting the xenia rub on him. Ive let it go for a few days and theyre...

I ve had a minor problem with aptasia since I grabbed a few pieces of rock out of my friends tank when he was taking it down, and now six months later i still cant seem to get COMPLETELY rid of this small nuisance. The only way i have tried to get rid of them is by sealing their mouths with a...

you have to take the total gph filtered through your filters, skimmers, and powerhead... should probably be in the thousand area, then divide that number by the total gallons of water in tank(55) and the number you are desiring should be over 10 times turnover.

I have seen a couple of those spirals on my glass, but for the other pics i cant tell which one they would look like cause theyre pretty small. but theyre pretty actve on the glass during the day. but i only see them every couple days.

yeah i was told they're copods, but i haven found any pics, so im sure thats what they are

I recently picked up some green striped mushrooms and when i was at the LFS the shrooms were open and i could barely see the LR they are on. When i brought them home it took the about 30 mins for them to open up but two of the shrooms seem to be very close to each other and they both have yet to...

awsome, ive heard about copods but have never looked them up or seen them in person but im glad to hear the news

I have noticed these small white bugs that seem to only be visable on my glass lately. the tank is only four months old but i was wondering if anyone has any ideas about what they are or if i should be worried. I figured they are something that were in my LR or LS but im not sure where the...

I bought a sebae anemone about two weeks ago and i want to add a clown to host the anemone but the sebae hasent attached to a rock yet but he has been in the same corner since i have added him to the tank. is this normal? when should he attach to the rock?

what should i be feeding my sebae anemone? Ive been putting in brine for my watchman gobie but that does'nt seem to strike any intrest in the anemone.

If the listed coral doesnt have a recommended diet of light and flow then does that mean this light will be enough?

I have a 20g long with 65 watt 10k bulbs and 50/50 actinic coralife light both have dual bulbs, is this considered a strong bulb when looking to buy corals?

good idea, thanks

Yeah basically but i found what i was looking for at k-mart, now the new question..Is it safe for my tank if some of the water from my LFS that the brine are in gets in with the little critters?

where can i get the little tube like injectors, so i can shoot the brine into my tank?
