Was lying in bed and I heard my tank making a funny noise, went down stairs and the returns are blowing air. Went into the basement and found smoke and the remains of the Coralife 1270 pumps plug melted and burned. Not sure what happened, all I know is the breaker went and that probably saved...

I think one goes on the base of the impeller and the other on the front. But I'm not sure.

Hydor sent me washers/spacers for my Koralia 4 rattling problem. On is white one is black. Anyone use these yet or know where they go? Thanks

Has anyone used these guys before? They used to sell on ebay, but now just use their website. I bought 10 "Emarald" crabs from them and at least half were Xanthids, To bad I didn't look more closely at them before I put them in my tank. I think I just caught the last one. (maybe) Really just a...

After further observation, I'm pretty sure its a Xanthid. Thanks All

Does it move or is it stationary? If its stationary its probably a form of feather duster. I have dozens in my refugium. They don't seem to bother anything. If it is moving around, then I am not sure.

Mine took about 6 months to start hosting

They are interesting, but I don't know why anyone would want to take a chance with one. Especially with their inclination to escape from their tank. But they won't chase you around the room or anything! ;) They are aggressive and will go after you if it gets a chance. Anyway, you'd have to be a...

That sucks! I always liked the carpets but am afraid of them. Sorry this happened. :(

He definitely is a carnivore. I caught him with a silverside and he had it half gone by the time a got him. He is in the sump for now.

I was loosing a lot of snails and finally caught this guy. I think he came in with a shipment of Emerald crabs. They didn't eat my bubble algae but this gut ate everything else! Thanks Dave http://www.flickr.com/photos/34490245@N07/sets/72157622095845514/

I'm sure it's Stomatella. I noticed them a few weeks ago. Thanks for the help

http://www.flickr.com/photos/34490245@N07/3206324549/ I keep seeing these on my glass, I suspect snails, but also have sea lettuce and assorted others in the tank. Anyone recognize this? Thanks

I would get him out of the tank, and treat him. Give him a fresh water dip and treat him for atleast ten days before he goes back in the main tank. If you can't catch him, there are treatments for the main tank, but I would hesitate to do that. I haven't tried kick ick but it might help, I just...

Thank You, I'll look into it :)

I have a Current Extreme 48" x 8 T5 light. I'm very happy with it, but the fans are kind of noisy. Since I have everything else plumbed in the basement, they are the only thing I hear. Any one have any fixes or suggestions? Maybe replacement fans or running them at a slower speed!?!?! Thanks
