When I was in Aruba I asked for one, and they wanted to bring be the whole lionfish just fried. I declined and ordered something else as I would not even have known where to start with it. They supposedly are really good.
We have a "fuge" which is basically just some egg crate fashioned into a square that gives us room to throw some rocks and macro algae. For us the fuge essentially serves three services: 1: Grow macro algae as a way of nutrient export. 2: Provide a place for pods to grow out in the macro, rock...
Prazi is a great medicine for a bunch of different parasites (internal and external) that is widely used in the aquarium. Fish can lose appetite during treatment so just keep that in mind, some people like to make sure they are eating before they dose the prazi to make sure they have a healthy...
Zoas depending on where they are coming from can be high light or low light so it is going to depend on each frag. The general rule of thumb is to start low and then move them up if they are stretching for light. Be careful with the button polyps and keep them isolated off the live rock. They...
As I posted in another thread:
DISCLAIMER: Dosing for SPS is not a magic cure all that will give you instant color, pe and growth IF YOUR ALK, CAL, AND MAG are our of line.
With that being said, if you are running a ULNS system through zeo or biopellets/carbon dosing, it has been shown that...
The gold assesors from ORA are cheaper and AO has them in stock right now, not to mention I would always recommend tank raised over wild caught (if available).
4 anthias is not an issue, they do better in harems of one male and many females so 1 male and three females would be fine. The...
Keep the phosguard. Pulling the kent carbon was smart, there was a recall at some point I believe on it as this problem has popped up for a lot of people. You do not want to make too many changes too soon, or that could hurt the corals as well. I use the BRS rox carbon which seems to be a very...
At first I though that was just a list of fish you were picking from not all of them. That would be too many fish for the tank.
1. Anthias: Take a look at: http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/prod_display.cfm?c=15+20+1553&pcatid=1553
They are also smaller and tend to be more hardy. Just...
Mystery wrasses are one of the fish who love them. We clipped them with a pair of bone cutters as well. As much as I hate to say this, if they are just on the zoa colony, get rid of the zoa colony. As others have said they can spread and be really hard to keep on top of.
For my 6 bulb: 3 ati Blue+ 2 ati coral+ and one figi pink/ati purple bulb
For the eight bulb I would just add two more of the blue+ and coral+. If you like the color, add a pink and a blue+
