The tank is sold. I will be out of the hobby until my finances change. I still enjoy the hobby, and am not looking forward to tomorrow, but it must go. Thank you all who gave advice over the past year. I wish all of you the best. God Bless Doni

Have not posted any pics in awhile, so I bought batteries and powered up the budget camera... Tank is 125 gallon with a 40 gallon sump. Lighting all VHO. Water test great. Low bio load. 2 tank raised pers 3 blue green chromis 1 yellow tail damsel. The purple cap is the one I slightly damaged...

I took a medium size rock that my purple Monti cap was on, and cut off the area the monti cap was on and moved the monti cap to a higher lighting, and flow area. The reason being I had one in the higher area and the growth was much more than this one. So, as I did this I did a little amount of...

Anyone here ever cover their tank for a couple of days, without any lights on? I have read the benefits can be an extra clean tank with sparkling water almost better than a water change(appearance wise). I covered mine up last night, and have the lights off today. If anyone is curious I can...

Hey guys. and gals. I cant get my plants in my fuge to grow. I use a flashlight a couple of hours per day and nothing..Lol. Actually I just have regular dual strip light above my fuge, about 40 watts total. THe area my calupra takes up is only about 15 gallons or so. My fuge is a total of 40...

I have a decent size monti cap frag, and when i epoxied it down a small piece broke off. This was about 4 months or so ago. The smaller piece did not take well at first. About a month ago I noticed it was looking pretty good. 2 days ago I noticed part of it is now bleached. The are both the same...

Hey man, just giving you a hard time here. You and me both love us some pics, but I have not seen any pics from you in, well, I cant remember when... SO... Whatcha got???

I am going to take back my long spine urchin this week. He has tripled in size in about 4 months. What is the safest way to catch this guy without getting hurt, or hurting him.

Is it possible to add an extra baffle to my fuge without draining? I do not want to take it out from under the tank. When I put it under I had to cut a hole in my wall to fit. I do not want to remove it. I need the extra baffle to cut back on flow, and reduce some micro bubbles. Any ideas...

So my sailfin tang has taken a liking to eating sand???? Has anyone ever seen this behavior before, or is he a sand sifter in disguise? He goes down to the bottom and grabs some and on the way up a little will leave his mouth and gills.. So, is he crazy or dying... I have been feeding him...

This week my glass gets super dirty on a daily basis. I clean it say Friday, and Saturday evening it is dirty. Nothing has changed. Low bio load, all levels are flawless. Still do bi weekly water changes with ro/di(of course). Do any of you ever experience times like these??? The only thing i...

http://video.msn.com/v/us/fv/fv.htm??g= ... =&gt1=9033 I hope this link works.. I personally don't agree with this, but curious to see what you guys and gals think about it..

I have hermits in my tank, but have been thinking maybe they are not a good fit for the reef. They climb on the corals and stuff. I wanted to see what most of you guys do.. I have some snails and they seem better suited.

I originally posted in the "new" category and got nothing in terms of responses. Trying again here.. I am thinking of adding a few more corals soon. I want a green bubble, a green monti cap, and a brain of some sort. Wondering if my lighting is enough. Tank is about 20 inches deep and my...

I have my pink pulsating xenia that is growing like a weed. I dont want it to get out of control so was wondering if i can slice it with a razor blade without any ill effects to the tank? I am thinking of about 8 pieces as of right now to cut. If i recall once cut you can't re-attch them either...

Just trying to see if I am the only one with an embarrasing story.. Once after a water change I had a garbage can on wheels sitting in the house with about 20 - 25 gallons of water in it. Dirty water might I add. Well my 2 year old super strong son started to climb it when I was putting...

I was doing some research about different brains and they seem to be pretty good corals. They seem easy to take care of and such. Mainly wondering if I would be able to have one in my tank. My lighting is VHO around 770 watts. Tank is about 20 inches deep. If so would I put it on the sand? or...

The ends of my acropora are getting longer and the tips are getting purple. The new looking part is a creamy white color. This new growth is a different color than the base. Is this normal? Is it growing? Or is something wrong?

Okay, I added two monti caps on November 5th. I positioned them in what i thought was a good flow area. I rechecked the flow area yesterday and discovered the flow was not anywhere near what I thought. Basically the growth they both have shown has been really good. In other words they are...

I wanted to get some advice as to if and how you guys clean your fuge. The drain side has a fine layer of dirt or something. I wanted to clean it without completely draining the fuge. Because if gravity my usual methods will not work. Any suggestions? Next I am going to do the 5 gallon bucket...
