I had quite a lot!! I used to watch them chase copepods on my glass. Then they were getting to be too many and I used the FW Exit. Used 4 pounds of carbon too. That was a lot of carbon at one time LOL

Is this a Myth or a Fact?? Microbubbles can cause harm to fish by entering the fishes gills and not coming out.

Oh no....I have to disagree with the Flatworm Exit. I had a flatworm infestation....and I followed the box exactly, since I heard too many horror stories. And they died like crazy!! I noticed a few more lurking around about an hour later so I added 50% more. Now I have no flatworms. Just be sure...

No...moving it won't help....It's the way its growing. It's shading out the bottom middle on it own. I'd hate to frag it because it looks awesome!!

So I have an Orande Monti Cap that is growing so big and so quickly that the bottom middle, where it is getting no light because of how it is growing, is starting to turn white and die. Is this normal?? Will this make the rest of the cap die??

Send me more info

I guess I need a Macro lens....can anyone suggest one that won't totally kill the wallet??

Problems Problems problems....it's what the hobby is ::) LOL You can definitely borrow it if you need to, I would just need it back pretty quickly for water changes. But they are quite cheap....got mine for $40. Keep it up!! After all the aggravation, will come success!! Did you finish your...

Welcome Twisted!!

It may be....I'm assuming you have a swing arm?? I tossed that thing out like a bad habit. Love my refractometer!!!!!

LOOKING GOOD :o It's kind of crazy going through almost an entire bucket of salt at one time....isn't it?? lol

First I would suggest rinsing the used sand very well in saltwater....you'll be surprised how much gunk is in there. Then to add it to the tank...you can use a container...fill the container with sand, leaving room for water. Then slowly lower it into the tank allowing water to slowly mix with...

Neither have I...use Reef Crystals

Hey...I'm looking for the same one...but only if it's the copper coin from the San Francisco mint ;D ;D

I'm not so sure a penny would leach copper at all...but if it will....a penny made from 1909-1982 contained 95% copper...the newer pennies made from 1982-2010 is 97.5% zinc. So a newer penny is safer ;D

Here is what I would personally do. I'd take 3/4 of the existing sand and clean it VERY well in freshwater. I'd add that to the tank along with new rinsed dry sand.. I'd then take the other 1/4 of your existing sand...clean it well in salt water and add it to the tank. I would not rinse the...

Is the footprint of the 75 different from the 55??

On top of the sand you have....do you remember what sand you used then?? I use Ocean Direct Carribean Live Sand. But if you are completely cleaning your sand with freshwater, you can save some money and use dry sand and seed it with some existing sand.

I did this when I upgraded from my 55 to 180. The difference is...I didn't care about losing the bacteria in the sand. So I used freshwater to rinse. If you are thinking about re-doing the entire sand bed, then rinsing with fresh water will do the same thing. Keep some old sand to seed it....and...

I think you'll be skating a fine line there. The detritus and all the hydrogen sulfide that is built up in there. I'd be a bit worried!! You may be better of cleaning the sand with fresh water before re-using it, but let's see what others have to say.
