thanks guys! appreciate the responses. yea that clown tang is an amazing fish but he's quite aggressive and really limits my stock

Hey Guys been a while since i've posted, but i've come back to get some suggestions. I think I am becoming somewhat bored with my SW tank and maybe it's time for a change, whether it's to get different fish or just shut it down, i'm not sure yet. But for starters i was wondering what you guys...

Hey guys i'm using a 48" fixture with 2x DE 250w MH and 2 VHO Bulbs. Right now i am using the super actinic VHO bulbs, but im not sure what type of bulbs the haldies are, as i bought the unit used and the guy wasn't sure what type of bulbs they were. So I know what it comes down to is pretty...

I did read that, and what scared me is the fact that i did notice that a couple of my halloween hermits didn't move for a couple days but were still alive and not retracting back into their shell but were in the same spot for 3 days straight. And i have lost a few snails to but i figured...

hey guys how do you distinguish diatoms from dinos? I have what i thought were diatoms but i noticed a bunch of little bubbles on the brown stuff, and as the day goes on the bubbles and a clump of the brown stuff will float to the top. It's only on the sand. Only thing i have lost are a...

It's $120 on there now.. don't tell me i missed it! i was excited when i read this.

lol yes i do. i keep saying that but i will post them tonight hopefully. it's depressing because the tank seems so bare without the clowns. Still have some good pics of the coral.

Its a Catalina Fixture. I haven't seen too many reviews of them but the fixture is awesome so far.The slide rail changes the length of the fixture but not the width. Problem with the legs is that the fixture is about 12" wide to begin with and when you put the legs on they add about 1" to the...

hey guys. i'm back. was going through a lot of time consuming projects as well as some overtime with the job. About a week ago i found a good deal on craigslist. I bought a 48" Metal Halide Fixture, with 2x 250w halides, 2x 110w VHO, and the 8x Blue LED Moonlights. With 1 new(in box) halide...

Hey guys i found a TEK LIGHT T-5, 48" Light Fixture 4 x 54W on sale and was wondering if it is a good fixture? Would it be decent for my 72 bowfront. Right now i mainly have LPS and Softies. And i dont really plan on going with SPS. Also if I'm getting a good deal for $200? it included 4, 2...

haha sorry guys i will have pictures up today or tomorrow. Made a few additions of corals and fish. Probably nearing overstocked now but i've been trying to get a couple fish out but can't catch 'em. just received the reef octopus bh-2000 skimmer in the mail that i ordered wednesday night...

was just going to say the same thing. i ordered from aquacave too but their on backorder. ordered from socal as well. should be here today or tomorrow.

thanks amph. i'll keep you updated if it get any worse or continues.

just ordered the octopus bh 2000 myself and waiting for it to come. best of luck.

ohh yea. nice and fibrous for sure. and the pics don't even show it at its worst. it happened about a week ago for the first time. and once he passed it he was fine. and its happened two times since then (atleast that i've seen) i've noticed that he'll swim erratically and thats when i can...

thanks =-) minus that big blob coming out

got some pics: and before the "poop" comes out an even bigger blob comes out.

when i say erratic i mean it will be kind of like hovering for a second or two, and than zoom a short burst. and then swim leaning toward the side for a few seconds, and then kind of swim with short bursts like somethings just bothering him. very sudden movements. and then an hour later he'll...

also should note. this has been happening off and on for the passed week. this happened yesterday and then today this afternoon he was swimming around find all around the tank and its been going on for about a week. he's always been extremely active and grazes constantly all day everyday.

haha thanks hopefully he sees this. i know this will be a question so the params are : pH- 8.2 ammonia - 0 nitrite- - 0 nitrate - < 5 salinity - 1.024 temp - 77 F Calcium - 480 Phosphate - .25
