    HUGE RED Emerald Crab

    I had 3 emerald crabs in my tank at one time. Two of which mated and I had little offspring going every where. The fish ate all of them, so i thought. But one survived. Its red in color and thought it would molt and be green like normal emerald crabs. But instead, it molted, red in color, and...

    Light - Algae

    I have the substrate mixed with live sand. as for the live rock, it is fiji cured LR and came with alot of algae. Thought it would be ok to place in the tank but it wasn't a good choice. Boiling the rock does kill everything on it. But it seeds very well and cleans its pours. I had alot of...

    Light - Algae

    Ok. thanks. I've replaced my carbon and did a 20% water change. Ammonia-nitrites-nitrates are all zero ppm. So far the water hasnt gotten any darker. Do you think PH effects the clarity of water? I usually allow them to be slighty high in the 8's.
