    Somewhat less common fish

    This is my basement tank. It's a softies type of tank. I am making that tank more like a frag tank so most of the rocks will be removed. The angels like rock caves and will not do very well in a frag tank setting.

    Rainbow bubble tip not fully inflating

    Jeremy if we know the answer to your question we'd all have the most beautiful tanks. However many tank are not even well established after one year and those do have some success have problems quite frequently, sometimes even tank crashes! As you mentioned our tanks are ecosystems. These...

    skimmer suggestions

    You will probably get a lot of answers. I have limited experience having used only two different ones. And I am partial to the skimz currently running on my tank. Maybe I just haven't used a better one yet. One thing I would say is a separate water level adjustment is very useful. This feature...

    Rainbow bubble tip not fully inflating

    When I had a young tank years ago I always wondered why some corals didn't do well while the parameters were spot on. Now I seldom see this problem. Some animals are more sensitive to water chemistry or the biological balance than others. If your tank is only a few months old it's safe to say it...

    Back to my first saltwater tank

    James, If you want to do something real simple you can just use your canister for now. I would keep the bio-load low, like a pair of clowns and some micro fish. No angels. Keep some macro algae in the tank, like dragon breathe and caulerpa. Maybe cover 25% of the tank with macros. 10% bi-weekly...

    Neptune Apex iOS App

    I installed this. It's exactly the same as the web version. However I can use touch to login which is the only problem I had with the web version, having to login all the time. I am surprised there is no android version because a lot of people use Amazon fire as a display.

    Horseplay's 105g Rimless

    Lesson learned here. Alk was increased from 7 to 9 over two weeks. Lots of ppl run their tank @10+ so I thought no big deal. Within days alk intake shot up the burned tips. I had BP at the time I must had absolutely zero nitrate. I didn't know I had to dose nitrate and obviously feeding a lot...

    Horseplay's 105g Rimless

    Last year, around august, there was an intentional alk spike, to see if corals would grow faster. The result was not good. I had to cut most them down to the base in an attempt to save them. These encrusted bases have grown back. The most stubborn one, a deep water fantasia efflo (last pic)...
