1 week ago we had a bad leak in our 115g reef tank. Our LFS delivered us our new 120g tank and even helped with all of the install. The old tank was a DAS tank that held all the crap in the enclosed filter which the LFS told us could be the reason we could never get control of the nitrate...

We started this hobby changing from african cichlids. We have spent so much money on fish and inverts and others only to watch most of them die. PH is okay, no ammonia, no nitrites, but our nitrates are off the charts. Everyone has said back way off feeding the fish, and liquid filter food in...

Our lfs has told us to back way off on feeding, and use a poly filter, but is there any thing else we should do? Some of our corals soft and stoney look bad. Even color is bad. Our zoa's look good and fish look good but the corals are suffering. Our blue clam looks bleached even on the very...

Ok, we're new to salt... however, we got tired of nothing staying a live so we broke down and bought a Current Outer Orbit HQI-T5 HO for $1,000.00 Can anyone tell us if this is a good light or not? I know everyone is probably thinking, you idiots for not researching ahead of time... but we all...
