Thanks for the advice. This tank was my reef tank, but I stripped all the rocks & fish out to move them to a large tank. The tank now houses a Snowflake Moray Eel and a Volitan Lionfish and I have only just noticed these mites. I am guessing that these were controlled previously by the reef...

I have noticed on the glass of my tank, white (almost clear) bugs about 1-2mm long. There are lots of them. I have no idea what they are or what harm they will do. They look similar to mites? Please help me as to what I need to do. thanks Dangerboy

I'm planning to upgrade my tank to a 5ftx2x2 with a 30" glass sump, here is a rough design for the sump. Are there any other things I should think of, or add to the sump. I have never designed one before, and have made this from pics I have seen on the net. All help appreciated

I looked at t-5 lighting at the place where I bought the coral from, and that is my next investment (probably next month if the finances allow!) so do you think the biological filtration will be enough? I was thinking of binning the u/g and getting a bigger external like a ehiem pro.

Hi everyone, I'm new to marines, and have had my tank set up since January, I've just added my first 2 corals. I don't know what type they are, so any help is appreciated. BUT I added them yesterday, this morning I went down to the tank and the bigger 'leathery' coral has what look like cobwebs...
