I have a nice colony of purple digitata that grew out from a frag. The thing was deep purple when I got it and gradually became a weak purple. I just can not seem to figure out why it will not take on the bright deep purple that it should be. It is high directly under my T5s. I have a purple...

Well Last night while cooking dinner I looked over at my reef and the water was all cloudy. I could barely see across to the other side. My first thoughts where holey cow what did the kids throw in the tank, followed by what is happening in the sump? Well when I went over to look around in the...

I would like to make a shelf in my sump. I currently have a shelf made of pine screwed to the top rim of the sump to hold my skimmer and anything else I need. I am thinking about making a shelf inside the sump to hold the skimmer lower and possibly hold a small fuge just above or at the...

I am getting ready to do a massive water change on my system. Will be making water for almost a week. When all is said and done, I may have my first 55g of water for 2 weeks. The water is in a covered 55g drum. My question is should I add the salt now or add the salt the day before I use it...
