You are right the cap was not sealed tight enough, I put it much tighter and now no problem. thank you

I just got a new nurce top off system and set it up but something is wrong. The water will not stop comming from the nurce into the sump. Even when the desired water level is reached it still keeps pouring water into the sump. Any idea what the problem might be? thanks

I put a yellow tailed damsel in my 135 about a week ago. It was doing fine eating and looked healthy no problems at all. I wake up this morning and it is gone I wonder what happened to it. any ideas has this happened to any of you where a fish just vanished over night?

My coraline algae looks like it is getting lighter in areas and also some areas seemed to be outlined in a very thin white edge. Does anybody know what this means? My tank has only been set up about 4 months and the coraline I have is just on the rock it has not spread to pumps or glass or...

Does a UV Sterilizer get rid of parasites like ick? What does it do and why might I get one? thanks

Is there such a thing as a red colt coral? It's really not red but more of an orange color. It was sold to me as a red colt coral, I hope it's not one of those corals you have to feed that has no algae to make it's own food. How can I tell the difference or what might give it away as a coral...

I got a green finger leather yesterday and it has not opened yet just is slumped over. Is this normal? my colt coral opened the first day I got it, but not this one.

I have a sailfin tang that is acting normally and eating well. But he has some faded discolorations on most of his body. What can this be? This just came up a couple of days ago.

One of the best to keep is the lettuce nudibranch, it should find some kind of algae in your tank it will eat. But I will warn you it's just a matter of time before they get sucked up by a power head or go down the over flow box, they crawl everywhere.

I have a Purple Psuedochromis right now and he seems to be pretty aggresive. He will chase some of the other fish around but it's not a constant thing. He just wants to show his dominants occasionally. Does anyone out there keep a Purple Psuedochromis and a Neon goby together. I would like to...

The nudibranch would very likely get cought up in a power head or be sucked up by the overflow, or starve. What about a white sandsifting starfish I have one. It eats everyhing in the sand but it keeps it clean. So if your not trying to grow things in your sand they might be a good addition.

I have a slight case of ich, I heard if you drop the SG it helps mine is at .023 what should I get it down to how fast do I get it down and how long can it stay there? thanks

I have a 135 and I don't have a heater right now, didn't think I needed one till it gets colder. My temp can go from a high of 83 during the day to 78 in the morning. Can this stress my fish out should I get a heater to stop it from going say below 80?

Why is a peppermint shrimp not reef safe? A crab is a crab and they will try to crab anything they can at anytime and if they happen to catch it look out. But they won't hunt it down and kill it but if it comes to close to them they will.
