The move was nuts! The movers said they would be at the place between 8-9am. I Started to pack up the fish, drain the tank, etc at 6am. All fish were bagged, and tank was dry at 7:30am. Movers never showed up until 6:30pm. I had to call in a favor at noon. Got help and moved the tank and...

OK thanks, Now let me ask this. When building a refugium, is there a rule i should adhere to, as for the size/flow through it? I would imagine that if the refugium is too small, and flow to great, the benefits of it (the refugium) would diminish, am I correct in thinking this way? I ask, because...

Ok, so Should I flip over to a refugium / skimmer setup? .. My final goal is to be heavy on corals / inverts and light on fish. I've seen some wicked nasty gunk the skimmer gets out of the water, and im not sure thats good to keep around with corals. Is skimming even good with a refugium? Like a...

I have 6 turbo snails (3 large, 3 small), and a handful of hermit crabs of various sizes. They seem to be expendable, because sometimes I see arms and legs but no body... someone is chewing them up, so I just go back to the store and get a few more.   My anemones seem to be doing well. The...

Thanks.   I have a sea clone skimmer, and yes, I have a fluval filter.. I believe it is a 205. The lighting I have is 2 true blues and 2 10k's at 65 watt each, I run the blues for about an hour in the AM and then an hour in the PM.   For water movement, I am currently using 1 Aqueon 700 (rated...
