    Clown Died

    I had one of my two ocellaris clowns die the other day and I was wondering if adding a new one to the tank would be possible. I am in the process of switching to another tank, would this make it easier since it would be a new environment? Thanks for any help

    Live rock freshwater

    Ok, so this is actually a freshwater question, sort of. I want to start up a freshwater tank along with my salt and I was wondering if using some old base rock, that was live at one point, would be ok to put in it. Im sorry in advance if this is a really stupid question

    MH on 33 gallon

    Flame Angel in 25?

    Is there any way that I could fit a flame angel in a 25 gal cube that measures 18X18X18. It will also be hooked up to a 15 gallon sump/refug for a total of 40 gal. I just want to make sure that there would be enough physical space for it.

    100 Gal for $100

    I am looking at a 100gal tank that is for sale on CL for $100, tank and stand only. The only problem is that the center brace across the top is broken. Does that make it unusable now? I really hope this can work or at least be fixed.

    Leak!

    My 75 gallon tank seems to have sprung a leak The water is coming out from the seam at the bottom where the plastic meets the glass. Do I have to take the whole thing down or can I fix this while its all set up? If I can fix it while its set up, how should I go about it?

    Leather & SPS

    So I have heard that it isnt really recommended to put softies and sps in the same tank and wanted to see if this was really true. I have a 75 gallon tank and was wondering if anyone could tell me if it really would be a bad idea to try to put these together

    Can this be used in saltwater aquariums? the bag says that it can, but it also says that a bunch of additives will be needed because it is different than regular sand. Does anyone know if it really is safe?
