    Sand Questions

    I had crushed coral in my tank and just switched to a DSB. I couldn't get my nitrates down with the cc and now I have no detectable nitrate. When I removed my CC you would not believe all of the yuck in it. I'm sure if you do some research you will find all kinds of good ideas on making the...

    feather dusters on ricordia branch

    I purchased a ricordia from SWF.com and have had it for about 6 months or more. Well I just noticed that the branch that it came on now has 2 of the prettiest feather dusters (I'm assuming because they have no tubes they just come out of the branch) on it. Is there any way I can keep the...

    worms on glass?

    I seem to have these white circular tubes appearing all over the back of my tank. They look similar to a calcareous tube. I can't take a good picture because they are to small. Does anyone have any idea what they could be? Thanks! Tammy

    serpant star behavior????

    j21kickster I try to hold onto the cube until it is almost thawed but the very first time it just ripped it out of my hand and ate it still frozen. I was a little worried but it seemed fine!! By the time they get it to their mouth its basically thawed.

    serpant star behavior????

    I hand feed my red serpent star. I take a frozen cube of brine or mysis cut it in half and just touch the arms. Mine actually tries to grab my finger also. It is so cool to watch them eat. If I have to put my hand in the tank for anything now it tries reaching for my hand. HTH!

    in tank refugium

    I want to keep caulerpa in my tank but my tang and damsel will not leave it alone. I spent 15.00 dollars on feather and it was gone in 2 days. Kind of an expensive treat!! I was hoping it would help with filtration also. Am I wrong?

    in tank refugium

    I am wanting to add a refugium to my tank but am very limited on space. I have been doing some research and have seen some in tank refugiums. Has anyone ever done one and do they stay as ugly looking as the pictures I have seen? Thanks!

    water

    My friend actually owns the spring. She just spent lots of money having all of the water tests done and building a water shed with a bottling plant. It has nothing in it but trace minerals. She bottles right at the source.
