Looks like an Engineer Goby and a Blenny got busy when the light went out.lol

Yeah my Diamond Goby loves to jump in the overflow as well.He loves giving me extra work right when I'm about to sit down and relax.As for the little fish(wrasse),If he did die in the tank,bristle worms will get rid of the body quickly.Sorry for your loss..it does suck when you lose a fish. :(

Yeah last night I filled up a 3, 1 Gallon jugs with ro/di water, froze it and put in in my sump to keep my temp from not going any higher then what it was which was 86*."I was up all night baby sitting my tank"I ran out bright and early this morning and bought a new a/c.Its really doing the...

Thanks guys!! You guy really enlightened me.I had no idea that a chiller was going to put out that much heat,heat that would of put me back to square#1.Whooow..I'm glad I didn't order that chiller yesterday. After reading your inputs last night I decided to go out this morning and buy a...

Wow..sorry to here about your corals.So I guess a "NEW" a/c is in order..Any suggestions on types/brands of chillers that are gonna be worth the price?I know I'm gonna spend a small fortune.I wouldn't want to waste money on a chiller that's gonna break down in a couple of years.I have a 180 with...

thanks for the warm welcome...I do have 140lbs of live rock in the 180.I plan on having the 160 lbs of live rock from my 90 in the 180 as well.I cured the new live rock for 2 months in a plastic bin..once the ammonia read 0,I then added it to the 180.So the 180 tank has been cycling for a...

Thanks for the warm welcome prezzi :)

Thanks for the warm welcome.Wow that's a big jump 20gallon to 125gallon and no loss of life.That's great!Well I'm going to wait another 2 weeks to gain some more beneficial bacteria to the new tank,as well as make sure all my diatoms are gone.But you have given me hope to make this transfer...

Hello fellow reefers!I'm new to this site but I have been a reefer for years.I was hoping I could get some helpful advise from some fellow reefers. I currently have a 90 gallon reef tank with a 30 gallon sump that has been up n running for 4 years now.As years went by and my livestock has grown...
