want to change my cc to dsb. could use some advise on how to do it without freaking my fish out.

Seems that my two yellow tail damsels have mated and she has just laid her eggs on my spiney coral. (Very exciting!) Anyway, how do I keep the eggs from getting eaten by anything? Any advice what be most appreciated. Thanks! :D

Found this in my travels. Thought it would interest any one who was considering changing from cc to ls/lr like I am<a href="http://www.netpets.com/fish/fishnews/old/livsndup.html" target="_blank">Live Sand</a>

I've recently set up my SW tank (1 month). I have cc subtrate, no kind of live rock. My question is: Do I need LR? What are the benefits of having LR? I have a 29 gal. with an Emperor 280 and a Visi-Jet Protein Skimmer. I don't have a power head because my lfs told me that if I'm doing a FO...

I have kept FW tanks for the last 15 years. You do a maintainance on them every few months and keep your ph good and you pretty much have a self running tank. I think that when most people are faced with something a little more challenging and are dedicated to seeing it thru the reward is so...

I'm also fairly new to this but FYI another good book that I found very insightful was "The Marine Aquarium Handbook" New Edition by Martin A. Moe, Jr. It goes from beginner to breeder. Good Luck. :cool:

It's a 29 gallon. I have the light that came with the tank. I have looked at some lights designed for swf but not to sure what to get. It will be a fo tank. I've heard that coralife is a good brand but they carry several different types.

I'm hoping by param's you mean sal., nitrites, ammonia, etc. If so, they are as followed: Salinity: 29.5 ppt pH: 8.2 Ammonia: .50 ppm Nitrites: 2.0 ppm Nitrates: 10 ppm Does this sound about right? <img src="graemlins//urrr.gif" border="0" alt="[urrr]" />

First off I want to say that this forum is a great idea! Anyway, I've had my tank up and running for about 12 days now and everythings seems to be going right on time. I have noticed though that within the last few days a few pieces of my CC have a bright green algae on it. Nothing serious...

I've just recently set up my saltwater tank. I bought a couple of damsels to break it in. When I got them I gave them a freshwater dip and everything went okay. In the past couple of days I have noticed that they are digging holes. Is this normal behavior or is there a problem that I need to...
