My skimmer is currently running in the section of my sump where the water also is pumped back into the tank.. It dawned on me a while ago that it isn't doing a crap load of good skimming AFTER the water has already been through carbon filter media, and bio balls,, so i want to attach it so that...

I have had my tank up and running for a long time (sort of... ) now,, probably almost a year now. no fish as i have had a problem with algae, just some small crabs and one snail. It's a 46 gallon by the way. I had some problems with determining if it had cycled and finally went and got my...

Ok,, i started out with a good tank,, no algae (no fish,, just live rock, still no fish..) then after about a month waiting for my tank to start the spiking/ cycling process, i got nasty brown slimey looking algae. I went to my trusty LFS, and got my water tested and it came out all within good...

My parents are divorced, so I am only at my mom's house (aka: where my tank is) about every other day, ish. So I know already I am getting a timer for the lights so that even when i'm home they'll always turn on and off at the same time. The problem comes with topping off my water,, I live...

Just recently i went to my oh so trusted LFS (they really are good, they haven't even tried to rip me off yet!!!) to get my water tested/ get some crabs for my algae problem. Anyway the gut i usually talk to when i go said that the kit i was using (zoo med or some such thing,,) might be getting...
