Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
Funny but he walked almost right in front of where one of the wavemakers is. Fine where he is as at least I don't have to move everything around. If a baby kenya tree falls off and gets eaten so be it ;D. At least I don't have to redo the tank every night.
The CBB is one fish I would like to...
Yeh they are not big fish. However just a thought you have two schooling sort of fish...maybe a couple smaller "different" fish would be nice. Blenny, goby, hawkfish, clown, cardinal fish etc as they will have different personalities/habits. Something to watch. Schooling fish are nice if you...
Jon tank looks great. Got all your plumbing done?
How is the C.B. Butterfly doing?
My RBTA moved to the back of the tank ::) but at least out of the way. See how long it lasts. Thanks again.
I am going to suggest you don't get a purple or even yellow tang. My reasoning is that the smaller the tank the more the bad traits(aggresiveness and territorialness(is that a word)) will come out. My suggestion would be one of the following tangs kole, convict, lavender, or tomini. They are all...
I am going to say first try a second clown ... I didn't realize the potential there for their interaction it is really very interesting.
Firefish are great ...but a) rockwork to hide in is helpful and b) they will jump. If you have been lucky till now great but they will jump when startled. You...
Pic would be good ... blasting your rocks with a powerhead or turkey baster helps to dislodge the crap and usually helps ... hair algae won't just blow off so easy.
I can put my hand on it ... very "warm" but not hot.
I called ... if you call usually Jim will pick up though I think the phone is in the factory...sort of remember it being an issue.
I do and I am happy with what I got. Upside is price, function, customer service/customization, and warrentee. Downside bulbs that come with it are not great. I wish it was a little wider.
It is great that it comes with bulbs and with its price it buys you some time to upgrade the bulbs. The...
I believe and this is just my opinion that it comes with the summer water temp rise. As soon as my temp hits 80 I tend to get my share. I too am going to rotate out some bulbs. But again my feeling is temp is to blame...perhaps a lower O2 level due to the higher temp? No corals look bad and...
Remember to be patient it will take a while to make sure you have cleared it up. I would suggest at least 4 weeks before you start to increase the salinity. Glad it is working well.
I like to do very frequent water changes in my QT. I feel that it helps gets rid any free floating baddies plus keeps very clean water. I would usually do 3-4 water changes per week.
Hey some of those issues sound familiar. ::)
Here are some tips.
You will want to put the live rock close to or on the bottom of tank glass because if you rest it on top of the sand a bit of digging by some industrious fish or critter can create a rockslide.
Leave the crushed coral out of...
