I will avoid anything with tentacles and any SPS. Will go with some acans, brains, chalices, something small. My LFS has a beautiful green brain, bout 5" across. Lil large, but its pretty inexpensive...$39.
My Nems stay put and haven't move in awhile, like months. I think my foxface will be alright. My Singapore is a HUGE P.I.T.A. He may cause some issues. What LPS do you suggest as not to entice the angels to nibble?
Got some hairy shrooms in there as of now. My parameters are excellent, for now. I have 6x54w T5 bulbs. I am replacing most of them tomorrow. Takin a look at my tank, what do you guys suggest I start adding and where? All my shrooms are shriveled in the pics, lights just came on.
Thank you very much. I really appreciate that....I actually went to today to my LFS to see if he had anything I could try. Not alot of healthy stuff. So, I'll wait and find something when the time is right. I am shoppin on Dr. Mac's site in the 15 and under section. My LFS does have a really...
I wanna build a fixture for my 90g. My parameters are perfect. I lack sufficient lighting for any LPS or SPS. I have a 6 bulb T5 fixture right now. Would like to know if there are any sites with directions or plans. Or do you guys have any personal insight.

Over the past several onths my pistol shrimp has become more brazen. He comers out more often, of course with the goby right on him. Post a pic when if you can.
Canisters are great. Especially the FX5! Bit pricey though. Suggest it be rated for 2.5 times the capacity of the tank. I would also recommend Aqua Clear 110's. I have two of them on my 75g fresh....as well as a great canister.
Great thrad. Exactly what I was looking for. I am adding a TLF 150 tommorrow. Going to use bio-pellets. I have some phosphates and am looking to run it this week. What brand do you guys recommend.
Pickin up the reactor tomorrow. I am also getting a Rio 1700. Is the 1700 too much? I am going to add the reactor to my 30g sump. What size pump do you guys suggest. And are there any tips into plumbing this reactor into my sump? ...or simply hang it on the side? which section fo my sump, etc...
Its def not the clay pots. My cichlid tank is full of the pots. The coral dec may be leaching. But, how long has the tank been runnin? Has it completely cycled? Majority of cichlids can handle high nitrates for awhile, but its just not healthy. How is the ammonia? I would suggest removing the...
