Howdy I am fairly new to the hobby, but offer my opion. I believe you might be putting to much for a thirty gallon. Unless you feed algea pellets or something. I have a seventy five gallon tank, three Turbo, three Banded, two Bumble Bee snails, twelve hermits ( I like them I would add them) and...

OK Got some Hairy Mushroom Coral, two big pieces died and fell off the rock, damn what caused that? My button Polyp and Colony Polyp are doing well real spread out over sizable rock, how should I go about feeding so everyone gets a piece of food? Been just blasting the immediate area with...

Howdy, :) Here's what I did and work out real good. Bought base rock with hoes and washouts good reef material, you get the picture. ( can get at LFS) And covered it with Premium Fiji. The base rock will become LR over time. I was very happy with my LR that I purchased for www.liveaquirea...

Howdy I'll give you a shot? Ordered some corals and am pleased with what I have received. On my Brain Mushroom which came attached to some Tonga Branch live rock I also recieved a nice hitchhiker. Don''t have a digital camera so I will discibe. The hitcher is round the size and shape of a small...

Shrooms have returned to normal, must have been a phase. Thanks Brad

:? Ok, Mushroom coral was looking good yesterday and to days ago. Today it kind of looks flat and wrinkled. It was standing up tall yesterday real pretty like. I'm putting calcium once a week, should I put more? Can you OD the calcium? What to do? Thanks Brad

Howdy Looks cool. Why did you pick that anemone, just cause you liked it? You have a cool set up. Hope work went OK, here Danniel got the Axe. Peace Brad

Howdy All, The Humble reef looks great!!! :lol: Put a real cool rock full of holes this weekend and a mushroom coral. Is the muchroom coral a filter feeder or do I need to give him something special? Writting regarding lighting. The fella at my LFS says that I'll need to increase why WATTS...

:D Had the same trouble. Lower the collection cup and open the air intake valve at the end of the long tub. You'll be fine. Good luck Brad

Howdy All The Humble reef is looking good. Will add a skimmer on Thursday. Do I need to feed the Feather Dusters anything? When I add Invertabrates that will need to be fed should I turn the skimmer off during that prosses? Thanks Brad

:D Going to put a featherduster and ya'll said to stick it in a hole. Do they like lot's of water circulation? Thought they liked shade not direct light. Got a choice of a couple of holes, what do you think? Peace Brad

The Modest Reef looks good, PH is coming down but the Nitrate has gone up. Water change tommarrow we'll see if that helps. Do you think it's time for a skimmer. Was thinking about a Back Pak II. Any suggestions? Brad :)

:D Howdy The cleaning crew is excited about their new home and hard at work. Seven minature hermits, three turbo snails, three littler snail I think Cirtalus, three Pepermint shrimp, one Cleaner shrimp (red with white stripe). I am very pleased with their performance thus far, their very busy...

Howdy Live rock is growing these little sprigs looks like rye grass, is that OK? Brown dirty dark sandy looking stuff depositing around the tank. Looks like the bottom of the ocean. Is this a detritus bloom? should I clean it up? Does it have any value? Did I cause this thing? Thanks Ya'll are...

Thanks all think I know what I'm going to do with my clean up crew. The question is now what about the Sea Star or Star Fish? Does it kill anything? I would reather have peaceable inhabitants, my little girls are unhappy when something disappears. They become attached to thigs you know. Thanks...
