Sorry but I gotta ask. Why do you have whats looks like an angel fish and for sure a regal tang in a 29 gallon? Originally Posted by AU Mister i have frogspawn, fox, torch, brain, disk, xenia, polyps, pearl, candy cane, and a BTA. I have it all under the nanotuners 4.36 kit with the loud fans...

Yeah they are held in with two or four screws and that's it. Oh I forgot though, you have to look at the size number on your fans that you have in right now. There are hundreds of different sizes that will not fit, so look at the size before you buy.

First of I have never used a test kit in my reef or anyother tanks. I just do weekly water changes and keep under stocked and its fine never had any fish loss or inverts die. What probably happened that there was something wrong you messing around in the tank scared them and some died then...

You can easily replace the fans in your hood. They are normally under the splash guard. They are just computer fans, so look for the fastest speeds ate the lowest sound rating and you will be set. I did this in my 24 gallon aquapod.

Whats worse for you mentally and your fish tank is a long power outage a nice slow death to all your fish and corals lol.

Ick can only affect fish so your inverts are safe, but treating ick with copper will kill every invert and never let you have any inverts in the tank again.

I don't understand why people are saying keeping two clowns they are very happy by themselves and may fight with each other if not added at the same time. Look into flame hawkfish they have a huge amount of personality.

Just out of curiosity what skimmer do you have?

I will also post pics of my 180 gallon when I can.

That sounds fine, I have 2 blue leds on all night.

Hey I kept a leopard sharks years ago and by summer I will be getting a coral catshark or stingray if I cant find one. Puffers will pick at the eyes and fins of your shark, so get that out of there. I have seen eyeless sharks thanks to puffers. What my leopard shark liked was cocktail shrimp...

For the first week keep the lights on for less than you did with your 13 watt, so if the 13s were on for 8 hours keep the 32s on for 6 for a week or two.

This is to prove that you can get rid of red slime with weekly water changes and less hours the lights are on.

this is a photo that I normally keep locked away lol. The anemone I thought was pretty turned out to be bleached, I had a horrible case of red slime and had about 1/3 the LR that I do now.

:D yup that will make your anemone nice and happy! Oh and for the time being start feeding small pieces of silver sides daily until you can get the lighting and just to be sure continue feeding it less often for a few months. You cannot treat ick in you reef, but I have never delt with ick or...

The redish colerd stuff on the sand bed is red slime its not algae but bactira. It will sometimes be in a tank when first in the nitrate cycle or when there are good conditions for it ie: high heat, lighting, annd most of all nitrate. It will take over the tank if your nor careful

I am using my phone to type this so sorry if there are typos. I have a 180 gallon plexi-glass tank. I think I want a shark or ray in there (both smaller kinds like cortez and marbled) but I also want a lot of other reef fishes in there with it. I know the shark would make meals of the slower...

You can upgrade your lighting with eclipse retrofit kits just google it for stores. You will need atleast 3 watts per gallon
