i just purchased a flame after having a coral beauty for awhile. territorial was the CB but after a couple days and restructuring the LR it worked out fne. each has its area and FA grazes algae like crazy. did the same when i introduced a foxface into the tak with my yellow tang from h*ll! man...

is the refugeum a new set up? if so could be going through a cycle. usually refugeums should have the lights on all the time from what i have been told and what i have done myself for the last 5 years. you could also add an inexpensive clean up crew..just a thought..just do not let your calerpa...

Tropic Marine...best essential elements by far, a bit more in money but well worth it!

you may have your answer. if the crab is picking and the water flow is high, depending on where he is picking her may be dislodging them and then the current swooshes them away! just a thought. also need parameters and feeding does help.

maybe we can scare you and have you bounce of your walls with your head for 10 minutes. of course maybe you would like that...hmmm

my mats are lower on the lghting scale and not much current. also are you adding essentials elements? stron, mont, iodine etc?? also do you have any crabs that maybe picking on them or angels?

a fairy wrasse is also a good inhabitant along with the six line. look at their mouths (seriously) that gives you a clue on the damage they can do. have had a fairy wrasse for 3 years and cohabitats very well will shrimp and snails.

hello all, fairly new to this message board but have had a reef system since 1991. so let me ramble here and maybe just maybe i can help someone out somewhere. i have been in the fish keeping for 35 years, started when i was 10. had every FW fish imaginable (catfish, guppies, bluegills, like i...

ok i cant count! 10 fish all on the small side!

My set up is this..180 gal reef (tank 5 years old-250 lbs. LR and 6 fish (4 tomatoes, yellow tang, fairy wrasse, goby, coral beauty, flame angel, basslet and some critters))/65 gal refugeum + sump. presently running a basic protein skimmer (42" / 3 wood air blocks for bubbles) does the job it...

NOT ALL pickling mixes are the same just beware...but yes some are the exact same...

just leave it lay and plug the inputs, in essence you have a higher cost plenum bed...should be fine

1) I have over the last few months Halameda growing crazy in my reef tank. Can i put it in my refugeum which has a strip light on 24/7? What fish will eat it and what fish? 2) Am thing of getting a larger tank this late spring/summer. My existing reef tank is 5 plus years old, everything looks...

where would i start? hmm... well first on the size. 4 ft is fine, i would try and have the tank 3 ft deep and at least 2 if not 2 1/2 ft high. this gives you tremendous ability to "scape" the aquarium. use a DSB and as good a skimmer as possible. if you have a bunch of rock, i would be sure...

I admit that i was a bit lazy and let coraline algae flourish on the front of my acrylic. beautiful pink BUT not on it! any ideas of how to get it off besides scrapping it? the LR looks great though :-)
