Hi, I saw these at a LFS and had never seen them before and the price was cheap. So I picked them up. I have them in my fuge right now unless someone can ID them as a reef safe species. Thanks!

I was able to borrow a digital camera so I kinda went crazy and took a ton of pics. These are the ones that turned out decent. They are graphic intensive, So i'll post a link to yahoo photos instead off adding them all here. http://f1.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/duy...bum?.dir=/6e27

Hi, I am about to pick up a green and gold baby maxima. Its about 1.5-2 inches. The tank is 22 inches deep with a 4 inch sandbed. So the sandbed is under 18 inches of water. I have 2x 175 watt 10k XM bulbs over the tank. Can I place this clam on the sandbed or would I need it higher up...

Hi, I'm upgrading my tank and my lighting. I was using a catalina MH setup and its probably gonna go in the trash. So I am in the market for a new one and think I have decided on a setup from Hello Lights. But I am unsure of what bulb to get. I was to have a white to blueish look, but do...

Hi, I saw a product on ---- saying that it will add detrivores to your system through some liquid in a bottle. It sounded like BS from the begining. http://cgi.----.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=2385409805 So I emailed him and tried asking a few questions to see how he responds. Heres the...

Hi, I bought a rock of pretty sweet gray and pink yumas, and one of them on the rock was pretty bleached and fell of the rock. The body still looks fine and no slime. So I was wondering if it is better to place a bleached yuma in intense lighting or less lighting for it to recover and regain its...

Hey, I'm debating wether or not to use a DSB. My GF's father is purchasing a 180 gallon tank. It is used and has a crush coral substrate and I want to replace it with sand. This tank will be placed in the wall so things will not be touched much in there. I am thinking of putting in a DSB...

I posted this in the equipment section but didnt get any response. I hope posting this link is ok. They dont sell anything that this site does I think. But if it is in violation, let me know and I'll take it off or take it off for me. Thanks I found a site with really cheap PC bulbs and was...

I had a thought. I setup a DIY CO2 reactor on my planted FW tank. After doing so, the plants grow so much healthier and faster. The only effect that I noticed was that it droped my PH in my tank down by about .1 which is good in my FW since I was just a tiny bit high. I was thinking about...

Hey, I'm in need of on a decent in sump skimmer. Unfortunatly, I cant afford one right now. But I do have a couple hundred dollars worth of Monster cable that I can trade. They are all new in package with the prices still on them. I have suoofer cable, different types of video and sound...

Hi, I have a pic that I took and i want to resize and use as an avatar, but I cant seem to get the size right. For me to get it under 10kb, the pic turns out to be like a quater inch square. What am I doing wrong.

Hey, I just found these little bugs (pods) that I have no Idea what they are. These guys are tiny. Probably less than 1mm long. It looks like there body is in 2 parts. The top (head maybe?) is red and the bottom is a dark grey/black. It juts around pretty quickily. I've tried searching but...

Hi, I had a thought. I was wondering what everyone thought about keeping peppermint and camel back shrimp in the fuge. I know these guys spawn a lot and thought it would be a good way to drum up some zoo plankton type food for the corals. I would put peppermint in the main tank to do this...

Hi, I was just thinking. Would lighting your fuge 24 hours a day have any effect on the pod population in there? I'm guessing the most pods are nocturnal since they only really come out at night. Since the light is on all the time, what would that do to pods and other micro organisms in the...

Hi, I have finally just setup a sump/fuge and needed some macro algae to stock it with. Does anyone in the southbay, CA area have any that they want to get rid off? I am willing to pay for some, but free would be great. Thanks in advance.

How much lighting is enough for macro algae growth in 20 gallons of water? And would it be better to use Pcs or NO that are made for plant growth? Thanx

How much light is needed for macros to grow in a fuge? I just completed my 30 gallon sump/fuge last night. There will be about 15-20 gallons of water in there with some live rock and a sand bed. I saw these power compacts made by coralife that were the coiled PCs like the ones used to...

I was wondering if it was posible to do a sump without using an overflow. I wanted to use tow of the same exact pumps instead. One to pump water into the tank and then the other to the sump. I think I've read in the past that this might not work too well. Can anyone tell me why, or would it...

Here's a pic of my tank. I've had it for 2 years now. First year was FOWLR. Finally started adding corals and inverts about a year ago. I'm new with digital camera's and borrowed this one. So bear with the quality on some of the pics.
