Sorry to say this, but personally i wouldn't use it opened or brand new. If you have filter feeding corals - you're better off getting DTs. Although I believe quite a few people on the board use a food called "Rods" - i have no experience with it so can't comment. If you don't have filter...

Not a lot of info on these since folks normally drive the market on peppermints, skunk cleaners and fireshrimp. Wetwebmedia has this: Periclimenes pedersoni Chace 1958, the Caribbean Anemone Shrimp, Pederson's Shrimp. Should always be kept with Anemone hosts. A great cleaner of fishes, but...

Great job - thanks much to the organizers! I wish we could have gone...I elbowed it out with parents/friends of 100 plus ballerinas. Fun...I feel asleep towards the end. :P Are we ordering more orange squeeshies for this 08 frag swap? I missed out!

Sorry to hear about the loss. I don't think it should be an issue. It's gonna poop a bunch later so if you're concerned about nitrates - consider that. Otherwise - nothing to worry about....other than your fish-hungry anemone. I used to feed my anemone silversides...never had a problem eating...

That Pet Place's anniversary sale had perfecto 150gallons at $1 a gallon - but you have to get there EARLY. http://www.njreefers.org/joomla/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=26&topic=9627.0 Or - support a LFS. I bought my 120 from AqOb during their annual sale. I think the owner is fantastic...

seems like a good plan to start with - I don't have exp with T5s but it sounds like as good a plan as any to start with.

You could re-arrange your aquascape and hope that the tang will re-adjust his/her territory. Generally speaking it's not always a "toss" up to introduce more than one tang in a tank. I know others (with big tanks) have them - but I believe the sequence of introduction was important for them...

Olivier, More than likely you have a "bristle" worm from the family Eunicidae. When big these worms are not reef safe. When small (as described) they are just scavengers. The give-away for these worms is that they have five "antennae" on their head. ON the other hand - if you really had a...

welcome!!!

with the clown question - it's possible but it depends on what you mean by "pair". Pair as in - female/male mated. Or as in - no idea what sex they are pair of juveniles swimming around happily? If it's the latter - I don't see any problems. If they are both mated pairs - it could be an issue...

watts per gallon should be used as a guide - not a be-all end-all. Consider that a longer tank (that is short in height) with a 4 inch DSB (or deeper) will need less light than a tall tank that is bare bottom. Or compare two identical sized tanks, one is BB and the other has a DSB - one could...

this thread earlier this week may help: Actinics Yes or No? That stated, your best bet is still to come to a meeting and check out someone's tank personally. Everyone has different tastes.

depends on the corals and anemones... On one extreme, if you got a tank full of sun corals and a condy anemone - i'd say get a pair of VHO. Heck if the tank just had sun corals you could just use any normal fluroscent (obviously you'd target feed the sun corals). On the other hand - if your...

what - I feel left out now - I was spoiled with 30 plus posts on one thread in a day and now nothing. LOL. welcome to njrc!

agree with vincent and they prefer a flat surface to lay eggs on though. Great book to read if you are interested in breeding clowns is by Joyce Wilkerson called Clownfish.

well that beats a tunze - you need a tunze wavebox (6212) to replicate that kind of wave action, and the 6212 is designed for larger (six foot) long tanks - not a 90 gallon. My only caution on what I saw on the vortech video link above was I did not see an overflow box, wondering how that...

if the display tank is larger than the fug (which for most of us is true) - it's unlikely the tank will "cycle" again. Then again - with smaller tanks - the margin of error becomes trickier. How big is the display again and how much LR and what other (if any) kind of filtration do you have?

I can't speak to the vortechs - never owned one. Here are my opinions on the tunze streams (not nano). On the downside: They are bulky. / The holder is terrible. /They are pricey. On the plus-side: Service is top notch. / The flow and energy efficiency is superb. Some other factoids that...
