    Nano Chaeto grower

    Problem with those lights is that want to float- I tried one in my 40b and weighed it down with ceramic discs- switched to this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LX1EO3W?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details

    Nano Chaeto grower

    I have a 13gal Fluval Evo AIO. The design doesn't allow for growing chaeto. I set up a chamber in my 40b and like what it's doing ( along with all the pods ). I came up with an idea that seems to work. I bought a Aqua Masters hob filter ( 95gph ) $15, and a 7.5 submersible led light $ 12- took...

    Left the room for an hour

    I'm a romantic at heart and keep trying to 'hook up' fish. Thought I could add a second Springer to my nano- also has a tailspot blenny, a firefish and a sharknose goby- all get along fine- the 2 Springers hit it off right away, but the new guy had to face off with the tailspot at it's cave- i...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    Wow, incredible! The one watchman is certainly persistent, spend all day 'watching over' the new one- hopefully they'll pair up.. I haven't been able to get another rainford yet my LFS gets them but none at present. I'd rather add one sooner than later. I've no luck with citron gobies. Chris

    Pods/ sump

    I had a chamber set up for chaeto in my sump ( second in line) flow up after media. I guess I didn't have enough 'junk' at first- my 1/2 cup of chaeto became a nickel size piece and was getting sucked into the return - I moved it to the overflow chamber and the chaeto is now growing- I have a...

    30 gal hex- live and learn

    After jumping back in with a 13 gal aio and falling back in love with reefing I resurrected a 30 gal hex and did my own aio- using my own rock along with live and a bare bottom- things were good at first- flow was hard to direct and lighting was also was a problem. But what made me finally...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    Wow! how long have you had them- I'm a romantic I guess- I like to see my fish get along- I know some can't get along with their own kind, but the ones that can only be the only one in a tank still have 'friends'- my striped blenny for one- the boss, but swims with everyone- I'm currently trying...

    New 40 gal Breeder

    Thanks! Mostly coral from a past life- I like that I was able to give the fish so much for caves etc- just have a hard time placing frags- not much level places. Also having a hard time finding the 'right' place for some frags- light/flow- polyps mostly

    New 40 gal Breeder

    Got some chaeto for the sump and added a skimmer- chaeto was mostly gone in a few days and the skimmer did nothing- guess it's still too new ( and clean)- also added a cuc with some hermits. Fish so far- a striped blenny, Rainford goby, 2 small watchman gobies ( added at different times- still...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    Paul, I don't have the time to read the entire thread but I do think I read that you have a mated pair of Rainford Gobies in your tank- are they a breeding pair? I have just one now- picks at pods all day. I'd like to add another (40B ) with hopes that they hook up at least- any recommendations...
