For all seahorse people worried about summer temps...

I was cleaning the glass with a flip magnet scraper. I swapped it over and dropped the one magnet on the floor. So bent down to pick it up. I forgot the glass was not slid back and hit with my head. It fell on top of me and tried to catch it but no luck, only grabbed one end; other end hit the...

I covered my Torch with a clear plastic bottle and 2 days later I see this. Left sude, I need to clean the glass.

I am trying to create a clear protector for my Torch. Someone suggested a clear plastic bottle with holes and weighted down to be placed over it. This would give the Torch time to heal, nothing can pick at it and I can observe it. Last night I peeled the label off a bottle and the glue part was...

Not going to use this sump. Measures approximately 17x17x18.

Powerful the torch and placed in front of large nepthea. Seemed okay but not fully extended. During night it fell over so I just picked it up. The head were Very retracted. I assumed to much flow. Moved it farther back on side of tank. A few green heads popped. What's the best spot for it?

Not to impressive but works. I forgot to pickup filter pads for the sea horse tank. Went online to order, expensive and a month to arrive. So I improvised. Took the filter pad and cut out all material leaving the frame. Then cut up some blue/white and black carbon pads to size. Used a rubber...

I ran out of Gorilla Glue Gel and was going to order more but then decided maybe I should get coral glue instead. Seems the Gorilla glue doesn't stick well and have to apply a few times. Is there much difference between them?

In speaking with the BOD it was decided to bring this back and give people something else to do during these trying times. In the past there was much angst over rule #2. The BOD has decided for now any pic you take is permissible. Meaning it can be your tank, an aquarium, LFS, scuba diving etc...

With the new build I plan later this year was going to get a larger sump for a fuge or scrubber. But when I picked up the skimmers and the sump the other day, the sump is a nice size. So I was wondering what if I split the return into two? One sump, the Elos for my skimmer and ATO plus return...

I picked up this skimmer the other day and the collection cup is broken off from the base. Jut wondering the best way to glue it back and not worry about it leaking. Was thinking aquarium glue and rubber-bands around it keep nice and tight and let cure for a few days. Not sure if keeping the...

Went to glue my frags down today and no idea what I touched or hit but my entire rock structure collapsed, no was not in top of the sand. Luckily tank is good and all fish accounted for. May have lost some frags I had prior to the new ones. Had to re-seascape and was not happy. I found my nem...

So finally got a nice size batch to hatch out. Maybe was using a non-flat bottom hatchery. That being said it took 48hrs to get them to hatch. Is that normal? Thought it was 24hrs. When I shine a flashlight so the shrimp congregate the light reflects off the other side. So its like have 2...

Had this thing for a little over 3 years and was kept in garage cause of cold temps; I have to make water outside. Well hooked it up today and let run a while; tested and was 4TDS. I doubled checked with the meter my wife uses for drinking water and that read 0TDS. My meter is 3 years old but...

I put cualerpa in the sea horse tank initially and it quickly started to spread. Pulled bunch out and brought it to Mike's meeting, probably tossed, no biggy. Anyway the sea horses liked it so I wanted to keep it but try to stop it from spreading. I placed it in a one inch diameter short PVC...

Was bored after work

I have a flower pot coral, believe is alvepora, I thought was dead. Then noticed it had polyp extension. Only issue is its all white, used to be greenish. How do I get the color back?

Was out today and found this at the Dollar Store, picked up 3.

No, I am not talking about me and my wife. Good question though. Anyway, I picked up an Ebili Angel a few days ago. Went into the rocks and never seen again. Today was feeding and the monster engineer goby swam out from the front rock it was under to eat. All of a sudden the Ebili swam out of...
