    I'm Back (Maybe)

    Hey Meowzer! I remember you! I want to do a smaller tank because I'm working full time and doing my last year of graduate school at the same time (engineering). They are located quite far apart from each other. At the moment I live closer to school but will most likely relocate in a year...

    I'm Back (Maybe)

    Greetings all, It has been quite some time since I've been on here. I used to have a JBJ 24G nano but due to work relocation, graduate school, and all sorts of stuff I had to get rid of it. Looks like I'm in a more stable location now and will be able to start up again. I'm looking to do a 10g...

    So I'm thinking about turning my 20gal FW into a nano...

    It must suck having no money in this hobby. It could also be a good thing so you spend money more wisely rather than buy everything like I did. I spent probably about 1500 over the last 8 months on my 24g tank. Anyways, how about a yellow watchmen at the bottom of your tank? Also, I imagine...

    Copepod culture

    Just out of curiosity sake. It seems like culturing pods is really easy. Why then is it like 20 dollars for a bottle of pods?

    I need help- quick!

    Well tonight before you go to sleep and definitely tomorrow morning. If there is a big difference then you can figure out what action to take. For example, if tomorrow morning your parameters are way off I'd change water immediately.

    I need help- quick!

    I would keep an eye on your parameters man. I have experience from doing a tank transfer. After stirring up all that sand my levels were through the roof and I panicked because I had nowhere else to put my live stock. I ended up doing a bunch of massive water changes (keep saltwater ready...

    Birdsnest coral problem?

    I don't know if this pertains to birdnests but I have seen corals freshly fragged look like they're going to die and then really recover. I know this doesn't help too much.

    Would this be safe for a quarantine tank?

    Originally Posted by yoshii Btw, for the 30gal quaratine, it was also a previous freshie tank, which I used meds in, and all the critters (2 clowns, 1 clown goby, royal gramma, a couple hermits&snails) are fine and healthy. Hence my confusion.

    Originally Posted by BTLDreef It's always a cr*p shoot on whether or not clowns will get along. Since you are willing to give them anemones, put those on the opposite sides of the tank and you may be okay. My pair of Ocellaris don't even know how long my tank is because they never leave the...

    Would this be safe for a quarantine tank?

    I'm confused. You said the 30g tank never had meds in it then you said it did have meds in it. In any case, what kind of meds were in it? The main thing you are looking out for is copper. That's the killer ingredient here.

    quick tank modification question

    I wouldn't mess with it. I'm sure its there to support the top of your tank. You wouldnt want water gushing out of your tank now would you? Seriously, a lot of tanks are designed with that brace for a reason.
