    No skimmer=More polyp extension??

    I dont know if it can be because of the skimmer but I would keep an eye on water params without your skimmer running . It might be alright for a while but be careful nutrients are not building up on you .

    Ron's 240g build

    Talk about an upgrade . You picked the perfect spot for a perfect tank, I am way jealous . It looks great there and I love the fact that it is viewable from so many sides . I looked at the cube photo and then the new tank photo and had to laugh at the size difference . There should be enough...

    Mating Behavior

    Paul, I have a pair(not mated yet) of clowns in my tank . They will not host but hang out together all the time .

    shrimp are disapearing

    If it is those two whatever is left is probably taken care of by your clean up crew . I saw a pj cardinal swallow a peperment shrimp whole . Half its head was sticking out of its mouth for the rest of the day . I think any fish will take a chance/nip if they think its food . Sux you had to loose...

    baby clown not working out, bigger clown?

    Exnay the sixline and get another clown(a bit bigger) to make a pair,much more fun to watch than a sixline . And a chance of breeding could be in your future,it seems to be spreading throught the club. ;D

    Brown and green hairy algae reef

    Like Redfish said,water params?? It sounds like everything was and is the same as the way it was setup ? If so the only difference might be your r/o. Did you check TDS ? Remember that you disturbed the sand bad in the move,that could be some of the problem . How long was the rcok out of water...
