I have the same situtaion but more on female that is hosting (abusing) RBTA and after reading numerous articles came to the conclusion that it is a pigmentation change from a sting by a coral. i have not seen it on her before she started hosting. no other fish in the tank has similar problem.
I live in Clifton so I am there every weekend no matter what - unless they are closed. the Australian corals shipment that came in on Thursday had some nice stuff - $200 and up. if you can afford it, it is a great place. but please forgive me once I saw bubble rose anemone for $199.99 - I was...
you can buy phosban with a media bag. would also suggest chemi pure elite and carbon and put it into your sump also - i was doing one at the time and changing every 2 weeks.

the media bag is inside of the package.
there is a tank RR on craigslist northern nj 125g with a stand 4x2x2 - something like 400. with todays economy I would assume you could get at even better price.
I have green hair algae outbreak in my sump. a few questions: a) is it normal? b) what should I do about it? c) causes of it?
its been like that for about 2 weeks now. display tank is spotless and no signs of it inside. parameters seem to be fine.
i am getting a few new frags today and made request for few more next month. i just like them too much and it is something that grows nicely in my tank. I would like to add a 2-3 acans and montis in the future.
thank you. it starts looking even better with "new" colors and lighting. I will take a full shot picture of the tank tonite. also, slowly starting to move frags all over the tank.
February Group Buy in is working and tank is looking much better. also, got ATI bulbs from AO for my NEP. it does wonder on your corals and fish. I have pair of clowns, coral beauty and orchid dottyback. I would like to add something to it - but what? also got a few new zoas - yeah, i am a zoa...
there is a significant difference in colors once you replace stock bulbs with ATI mix as I did. no question asked. AO has ATI in stock, same price like reefgeek.com if you add the members discount and no shipping costs.
this is a very intersting topic and i hope other could share their experience. i was wondering myself how much extra should i do. I try to feed corals/fish with more food a day before doing water change. so they get a little bit of garlic veggie/meat pallets every day and once a week heavy...
I am using Kent C. I must say my zoas are doing fine. I dont have ground to compare it to different methods, but it seems to be working for me. what is the avg zoa growth without C?
will his interests in the bigger female come back??? it sounds crazy, but he is obsessed with the anemone. it took him about 10 days to find it, but now he doesn't leave it for more than 5 seconds.
so my prayers had been answered and clowns have found bubble rose anemone. and that's where new problem started. before that - the smaller was bossed around by the bigger female from time to time and he was doing his seizure like dance around her all the time. but now he found a new object of...
it changes colors with blue lighting. i think we bought it from the same source and i have seen them bothering other fish in the tanks. but i can confirm - clown is having the time of his life.
well... bottle of wine and Luther Vandros have helped ;) Last night, for the first time I have noticed one clown go into anemone for 30 seconds. He did at least 3 times. I will spend another 2-3 hrs tonite looking and waiting to see that happening again, but it was a good first step. also, i can...
I know i am taking a chance on angel - but at the same time there is no ideal situation in the ocean either. as long as the angel will not eat it or nip to the point of slowing/stoping the growth - i am fine with it. I watched them both for 2-3 hrs last night and dottyback was in her "area"...
