I'm sure that they will be happier. thanks.

We did it this week, switched to a sandbed from CC. I can't believe the difference :D

our green brittle is guilty of the same, we have lost count on the number of critters that he has gotten a hold of. now the fish we have are either larger than the star and/or quicker. Sorry to hear of you losses

I do need to replace the screen on my patio door, the dogs decided to run through it, that would be perfect:D

I retested once again this morning and the levels have dropped more overnight, they are just above 0 now but below .25. :) I have sometime coming up in the next few weeks that i can start working on the bed, and try to remove as much CC as i can. Dad what type of screen would you suggest, Home...

Just retested the ammonia, the levels are starting to fall some was at a .5 when i paniced earlier now at .25. After a trip to the LFS to get a filtration bag for some charcoal and an extra handful of calpura(sp) i hope that it will drop somemore. After reading the last post with an ammonia...

i am using RO water to do the water changes how many gallons would you suggest? The bed is a mixture of crushed coral and sand i believe. also do you have any suggestions on starting a siphon other than the vaccum, i'm not to fond of the taste of saltwater.:)

How big of a water change should i do, i just did 10 gallons, should i do more than that? I'm just so confused on the amount that i should change. I should of figured something like this would of happened when he left :mad: lol. i really am thankful for all the suggestions

when i vaccumed the ammonia was already high and that was the only way that i could get a siphon to start. like i said before my husband usually takes care of the this stuff and i dont have to worry about it.

Our tang was acting strange so I tested and the reading was really high. I vaccumed when i did the water change and i did notice quite a bit of what appeared to be waste in the sand bed. I will take a water sample with me to the LFS though to have them double check for me.

there is nothing that i have found dead and we only feed everyother day a small amount of cyclopeze. The tank is a year and a half old. thanks

Help !!! In the middle of an ammonia spike and not quite sure of what more I can do. I did a water change and that helped some but levels are still high. Currently running an ecosystem filter and no other mechanical filtration. I am ready to go the LFS to pick up a skimmer if that would help. My...

It sounds like a worm that we have also. I did a post on it a few months back and it was suggested to me that it maybe a peanut worm. try a search on this. barnaclegirl

I really am sorry for the terrible pic ( i let my hubby take it). Please tell me what you think it is, i hope it's not what i'm thinking it is ( that nasty "A" word) thanks

never mind didn't read far enough, gotta love dial up

would these worms be benificial to the tank or harmful?

we notice this thing last night coming out of the LR not quite sure what it is though. i have attached the best pic that i could get of it. ( Sorry for the poor quality) The best discription that i can give is that the feelers that come out with it reminds me of the fiber optic flashlights from...

my husband has thought that this would be a good investment to replace our current canister filter.

was wondering what everyones opinions were on the ecosystem filtration? any feedback would be helpful Thanks

I have a question about my brain, are they suppose to move on their own? I didn't think that they were mobile, but this one seems to be.
