Got them from Dr. Foster and Smith online. They were shipped in the same bag, one just chases the other one occasionally. Thanks for the positive feedback guys, jese! Merry Christmas to all of you as well. I was really excited to show everyone my new guys, I was hoping for once I did something...

MERRRYYYY CHRISTMASSS!!! I got my fish yesterday and everyone is doing really well. What I got: 1 Sapphire Damselfish 1 Rusty Angelfish 2 Six-Line Wrassee's Total of 6 fish now and that will be it. Everyone eats the Mysis shrimp that I fed the clowns. I cut 1 cube a day in two...

I know and I value and appreciate everyones help. I'm sorry if I might not respond but I do read everyone's advice and take it into account and then make the best decision possible for the tank. Do you think JR that getting that octopus skimmer would be a good idea? It is def. thought highly of...

I know and realize that the comparison from FW to SW is totally different. I got all smaller fish and I think they will be fine. I didn't just go and order fish for the hell of it. I looked into it and found that I could house these fish, thats why I wanted that octopus skimmer from REFLECTIONS...

UPDATE!! I got my reef salt/new heater in the mail today :) I plan on changing 10 gallons out of the tank and replacing it with the reef salt water and then I can really start moving on corals. Im going to return the Coralife skimmer, I am running my old Rio Nano Skimmer and it works like a...

To late, Ive just had a spill all over the rug and I dried it all up and packed it back up like new and Im going to get my money back because it looks like I never used it.

This thing is a lot more trouble then its worth. With all the adjustments, im about ready to dry it and bring it back to the store. I'm so sick of it by now. Im getting bubbles circulating on the top of the water and then TONS of micro bubbles in the water. Im about ready to just get one of...

I connected the airtube to the main chamber where the vent hole was, i dont know if that helped. I'm still getting nothing with this thing, I dont understand this at all.

No I checked and everything is clear, I just know that once I turn that water level control up, it looks like it starts to skim. But just water fills everything up

Bought one yesterday bc my old skimmer toke a crap. I am having a little trouble with it. Its making a wierd kinda vibrating noise and my collection cup is filled with water. Due to the fact that I put the flow to max and it started to skim and then just filled with water. I gave it 24 hours...

Im looking to invest in a new skimmer. I have the Rio Nano Skimmer now, but its a pain because it always stops working when I loose a little bit a water. I really think its time for an upgrade anyway. I was wondering what some good options anyone could suggest. I found a Seaclone 100 and a...

Well I pretty much plan on mixing a reef salt and 10 gallons of freshwater in a garbage can. Put a power head in for flow and a heater in and let it sit for 24 hrs. Then take 10 gallons out of the display tank and insert the premixed new reef salt water in with all the stuff I'll need for corals.

Should I look into getting a calcium reactor if Im going to keep mostly softies?

Also I am now looking at investing in a calcium reactor

Calcium test was VERY high tonight, I added almost 40 drops and your supposed to multiple that by 15 and the water didnt even turn the color it was supposed to through the 30 drops. Nitrates don't look to bad, the test I have says its about 20ppm. Also my Alk was a little low, 2.25 the test...

Its been so long since Ive posted, due to the fact things have been CRAZY. Anyways, I am still dealing with the brown film on the walls of my tank. I clean it with my magnet cleaner almost everyday. Other then that everything is good. Any tips for trying to eliminate this pest? I read something...

So your saying the tank is cycling AGAIN? lol It is because of the new lights?

I am now getting the brown algae on the sides of my tank. I cleaned it with a magnet scrubber I had from my FW setup. It seemed to do the job, and after that I did my water change so hopefully the water will get clearer.

I've had my Sundial running now for about 2 weeks, I'm now getting brown algae on all sides of the glass, how should I go about removing it?

Sounds good thanks Wendy. And Yes I'll only be using RO/DI water to mix with. I'll just pick up the reef salt this week, either Seachem or Red Coral I think the name is. And if the supplements are a good idea then I'll certainly add them when neccessary. Also another question, How often should I...
