    First Reef Tank - Beginning the Journey

    Possibly gill flukes. If so, better treated sooner than later (antibiotics or freshwater bath).

    I need help

    Ride it out, do a 10% water change a week (this is close to gospel). Don't worry about chasing parameters or GFO, or carbon (which decreases O2 levels), or chemicals like Chemipure or whatever. Just keep it simple, this is a normal phase, it looks like hell, it will clear up. And it will happen...

    I need help

    3 months is a puppy. Personally I probably wouldn't have more than 1 fish in it at this point while riding out the algae blooms, but thats me. Over the next 7-8 months you're going to have brown stuff on the sand, red stuff on the sand and rocks, hair algae, bubble algae, maybe some aptasia, and...

    That is an excellent idea. Hopefully this isn't a common problem. Now that would be amusing if it cured algae concerns.

    WTB - AI mounting arm

    Vaguely remember that. That must have bee a few years back when I broke down my old 25. Still looking, may just give in and pick up an Amazoner.

    Cleaned feeder and it disintegrated while putting it back in tank. The inside is almost pure rust.

    Smart TV issue

    Now go get Apple TV and watch the Tom Hanks 'Greyhound' flick that was released yesterday. And while you're at it, grab Disney+ and watch the Mandalorian. Oh, and grab HBO for Watchmen (if you're a fan of the comics). And grab Netflix for 'The Boys'. %^$&, just buy all the channels and watch...

    Sand or no sad in 45 JBJ

    I know that people often do 'sand pockets'. I'm planning this on my next build. Paint the bottom white or tan. Put a couple pounds of sand in and let it get blown around till it settles by will of the powerheads. Combination of both worlds. You can monitor detritus, still get coraline growth...

    125 setup planning to drill

    Watch the height of the overflow box. Make sure it's in the perfect position (and consider where the visible water line will be from outside the tank). Only one shot to drill the correct height or you're screwed. Ask me how I know...

    WTB HOB Fuge

    Diana, ☺️ I keep telling my wife and kids how awsome I am and they don’t seem to buy it. A medium CPR would be perfect, but I’d still like to either buy it or perhaps I can trade some equipment and a nice frag for it.

    JBJ 45 and live rocks for sale.

    Like Jekyll and Hyde foaming at the mouth and twisting about. And though its in my home region (Newark/Harrison/Kearny), which is occasionally visited, it wont fit in the car, and the Jeep (with a top speed of 55mph) would take forever to get from Brick to there and back (if I'd trust it to go...

    Torch Coral for free...

    INCREDIBLY NICE GESTURE, it's what the club needs and what it needs to build on. Free or considerably discounted prices, reasonable trades, lending a hand, and cultivating friendships. A recent example (aside from this one): I just got a bunch of snails from Paulie a couple weeks back for $0. I...
