I increased the air flow during the day and then heard water over flowing from the collection cup tonight. I throttled it down so now its just foaming. Why does the skimmer to have increased performance at night compared to the day time with no adjustments?

I never felt my skimmers were perfroming well; one is a Berlin classic and the other is Aqautic Life Systems. Red Sea claims that a 500pgh pump is fine for the Berlin so I hooked up a mag5. The ALS I got from a fellow reefer and came with a mag7. The ALF skimmer performed a little better then...

My 2004 van has a problem starting. I jumped it 3 days ago and it starts up but reluctantly. I was told cars won't start if its the starter or altenator no matter what. Just wondering if anyones if that is true. I think its still the original battery, which is an easy fix.

Okay, well yesterday before going to work noticed that my yellow tang was acting strange. Just staying between 2 rocks head down. I took it out and put in a small container, but this morning it was not alive. It had some dark coloration on the face/head area. Any ideas what happened? I didn't...

Should we clean our skimmers other than the collection cup that is.? Do I need to clean out the neck any time or the plastic venturi piece the air hose goes into?

I had new carpet installed and the doors no longer fit. I need someone to trim about 6 doors; don't have anything to trade but I do have cash. Let me know what you want to do this. I don't have a circular or table saw which is why I am not able to do this myself. Mark

Just thought I would let everyone know that Ocean Gallery II and Ice Cap have great customer service. I bought bulbs at OGII in August during the sale. After 2 months one burnt out and I contacted Brain at OGII who put me in touch with Steve at Ice Cap. Ice Cap is replacing my bulb. How awesome...

I have a baby Painted turtle about 2" in size. It's tail was bitten off by another turtle. It has a tail just a stubby one. I don't have room for a separate tank so free to who ever wants it. Just send me a PM. Mark

I don't understand what's happening. My son caught a seahorse a month ago and its doing great, fingers crossed. It eats frozen food from the start. We caught a few pipe fish in Shark River and Keyport. Unfortunately, they all died by the next morning. I took an hour to acclimate them. Any...

Next week I plan to paint the room my tank is in. I will open all windows and use a fan for ventilation. Will also cover the tank with a sheet. Is there anything else I should be aware of? I am concerned paint fumes will get in the tank and kill everything or am I being paranoid? Thanks, Mark

Noticed getting some bubble algae in my tank again. Mostly on the power heads which I can remove and clean. The rest is on a piece of rock I may be able to get out and scrub. I also have a small amount on the bottom of the overflow. I can probably get out with a net. Question is what is causing...

Went to Keyport with my son and drag net; caught 2 nice pipe fish. My son caught some goby / blenny type fish in his killie trap. He caught 8 of them and I will try and post pics; they move to fast.
