Tanks coming together nicely Im loving the corals!
Whats your price range? Also are you looking for a HOB or in sump?
Hi laura Im here too. I have no clue where everyone went its very sad. :(
I normally don't add buffers to my tank except 2 part additives to maintain my CA if needed. If you have a good brand of salt the params should be at what they need to be. I tend to like adding a...
The nitrates are probably the problem I would do water changes to try and fix it. From the pictures the coral looks happy it also could just be closing just because it wants to. The holes in your...
Your temp is a little high I tend to keep mine at 73-75. It might be better for you to get a heater with a dial so you can control your temp, so you don't fry your fish or corals. Your corals could...
Awesome congrats on the split!
Yep your right getting joes juice or aiptasia X would be the best solution. It makes me sad to say this but your LFS is giving out too much wrong info I think he is one of those LFS's that are just...
The fuge is nice!!
Yes I do Ill put a link in my signature so you can look at it. :) Also Kudos to you for doing your research and asking questions before buying that is the best thing to do in this hobbie plus youll...
No problem Im glad I can help! and Thanks Im sad it had to go to but someday Im hoping I can get a bigger tank but for now Im just sticking with my 30 gallon.
You are right a 100% water change is wrong because it would end up killing off more organisms on the LR and start your cycle all over again. The best thing to do is a 10% water change then check your...
I know how you feel mines in my room too but I have actually gotten used to it now.
If you couldnt find a speed dial the best thing would be to take a little bit of the LR out of the 2nd chamber and see if that speeds it up for you. :)
Hey how you doing glad to see you can post now. :)
Both those gobies should be ok together but it really depends on the individual fish.
Hey good to see you again and its great to hear you have gotten new additions! I would love to see some pics if you dont mind haha got to love the eye candy. Also congrats on going to MACNA I sure...
Yea I have, its a pretty good show! Although somethings they do are wrong they have the basic idea down. Its amazing what you can turn into a fish tank.
Yep got it going... then I had to take it down...haha At the time when I had it, it was not doing so well and was sucking money I did not have out of my pockets so I downsized to a 10 gallon then...
Welcome back Michael!
Awesome Ill be doing that, finally can get rid of these little craps... Thanks a bunch!
oh ok haha, yea your right it does look like the cycle is over. :)
If you are wanting to be able to have any coral in your tank I would suggest going with an upgraded T5 fixture of 6 bulbs or more, preferably more. If you go the LED rout dont go cheap and make sure...
Hey Carty Its good to see you getting back into the hobbie, I was the same way for about a year worrying about graduating and stuff but now getting back into it and have a massive aptasia growth....
Awesome congrats on your frags that was a good deal! That sump looks like its going to turn out nice.
First off great looking tank and light system it makes me want to build one myself! :up:
How long has your tank been up and running? If its only been running a few days I think that the cycle just...
There really is not anything I can think of that you could put under actinic lighting only. The bulbs dont really put out enough light for them to survive. I would just wait to put any coral in your...
Great looking CUC! Congrats! :)
Welcome to TR Alex!!
+1 I agree. :agree:
Is it actual dust or is it dust from your sandbed? If its actual dust I would clean it out so that way its not floating around in your tank and gumming up your equipment.
Yea, I have been noticing there is not many people on, even on my local clubs forum. I'm afraid the economy is forcing a lot of us reef addicts to stop for a while. :(
wooohooo!!! It has water in it!! Its looking good! :up:
That sounds like it would work, but there may be a problem when the fish try to swim through the holes in the rocks they will be blocked by an egg crate. You could always use PVC pipe and cut it to...
Its looking great! :up:
Hes looking nice!! Hes way cooler than a mandarin for sure. haha
:w00t!: lets see this bad boy, you got a pic!
:pic: please :D
Yea I have been quite busy with ending school and starting college lately that I have not had any time for this wonderful hobbie, but Im getting back into it thank goodness....
Hi, I cant wait to see the pics!
From what I was reading on the purple lobster is that it may try and take a snap at small fish and inverts, so I would take caution with that. The sally light...
Thats cool I want one to drink my coffee in! I hope he adds it to the sight soon! :)
Great looking tank! Your zoes look amazing! :)
MERRRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!!!! I hope everyone is having a wonderful one! :santalove::gifts::santalaugh::snowmaneek:
Awesome looking crab!!! Beautiful too! Thanks for sharing Dick! :)
Awesome looking fixture!! :up:
Its not that bad, it just needs a little TLC. I'm sure with a little work you can get all that algae off of that rock. :)
Awesome! and Congrats!!
Awesome I cant wait to hear the results, I hope it works correctly. :)
wow that's a lot! I would watch those hermits with that many I would be afraid of them killing your snails for their shells. :eek: How much algae do you have in your tank? :)
I agree, the white outline may help the logo pop out more.
From what I have been reading, yes I think fragging does cause growth. On my local forum there was a guy doing a study on this (but instead of soft corals he fragged arco's) but it proved that...
Happy Birthday Dick!!!! I hope you have an awesome birthday!
