Figured I'd start off the new forum.
I'm trying to get an idea of fish for my tank. I've got 2 damsels that i may or may not keep. So I guess basically what are some colorful fish that are reef safe and will do good in a 55g? I've been looking at Anthia's, clown fish and maybe a goby? But i'm...
I'm sure this is the dumbest question but i would feel stupid waiting for months with an empty tank when i could of transferred my stuff over. :-[
So basically I had 60lb of dry sand, i went out bought close to 20lb of cured LR last weekend. stuck it in and filled it up, Added 25lb's of dry...

I'm starting to get that gross oil look on the top of my water. So i started looking into filters to eliminate it...
I found this which doesn't look bad. Just wondering if anyone has used this or heard anything about it.

Went in there the other day and had another great experience! :) Almost every time, except when they are really busy, they will try and be as help full as possible.
This time I bought about 20lb's of Live rock and another bag of sand (30lbs) as i was paying the guy helping me said he would take...
Hello everyone!
I was just wondering what i should do for my bulb arrangement. I've got 2x 11000k bulbs and 2x actinic 03 bulbs. I figured every other one would probbly be best. But i wasn't sure if another way is better. So i thought I'd ask for your opinions :) As for my corals i plan on just...
I am wondering which will look better. So i though i'd ask for some pictures :)
BTW, has anyone tried this stuff before? http://www.aquariumguys.com/oceanvisions5.html

I know people do this and i'm thinking of starting out with nothing but flow and live rock. I'm just wondering if it's any harder to upkeep.
Thanks,

Wondering if anyone knows of a good video camera with a fish eye lens/option. I found one but it was $3,999... I want one for skateboarding. ;) So if anyone knows of a good one that's not to much money then please post a link.
Thanks :)

I might be going to Doylestown PA later today and thought if there are any pet stores on the way back maybe i could check 'em out. Just though I'd ask ;)
Thanks,

Hey guys,
I have been wondering about this for awhile what type of skimmer can i fit in my stand. It's 18.5" from the bottom of the inside to the top of the inside.
Most skimmers i hear good stuff about won't fit or would be a pain to get the cup off. I'm open to just about anything! As for...
Hey guys,
I've heard how spa flex is easy to work with, doesn't vibrate and isn't loud.
So i though I'd post my questions,
1. Do you just glue it like hard PVC?
2. How do you keep your returns from falling down?
Alright i just though of something. Does the wood need to be covered in something so it doesn't get moldy from water slashing on it? Does it matter what i get? (I'd think there is something fish safe)
Thanks

Thanks
