I imagine it would depend on the species of clown and the type of anemone...in particular I think it different when you are talking about clowns born in captivity...where all they have ever seen is a powerhead. The nemo (I mean percula) I purchased was a little tiny guy and was in love with the...

actually - is that even a worm? First thing that crossed my mind was a zoa /polyp eating nudibranch. By the way - doing a search on other possibilities - I don't think you have "spiders" - but the suggested solution was a lugols dip. I dunno about purchasing a fish to help...I think given the...

mike - if you put the uncured lr directly into the tank - wouldn't it create a very big nasty smell? or would you be changing the water frequently (may prolong the cycle but reduce the smell at least)? Just wondering whether it is more beneficial to just put the uncured rock into a tub and...

dunno what that is - but based on what you stated - it's definitely very suspect!

wouldn't you really want to maximize the flow rate while using the least amount of power? So Id imagine a tank could survive a few hours without lights or a skimmer, but would be dead without any powerheads pushing the water. So if they were 3 tunze 6060s, at 11watts each, then you'd need...

Steve - I read up some more on this topic...so what I am sharing is pure "hearsay" since I didn't experience it firsthand... Warning #1 - the usage of the product may kill the nitrifying bacteria in the tank ...which may result in an ammonia spike thereby causing great discomfort for tank in...

Somehow francis didn't eat his cake - here we saved it for you: lol - sorry - I don't even know you - but thru this board feel like I do. ;D

WELCOME TO NJRC!!! Several tangs and the slow growing xenia would be perfect. Sorry sorry - i'm just joking...I am quite the sarcastic one! I really think a goby (firefish?) or a single nemo would look interesting. I know someone else on this board was putting a pistol/goby combo in her...

sorry to hear about the losses...would second the possibility that (if present) caulpera macro algae doing it's thing (think reproduction). Was thinking a cuke "nuking" may also wipe out the fish - but it wouldnt cloud the water to my knowledge for that long. By the way - may want to...

It's been 13 hours since that post...obviously we all want to see PICTURES!!! ;D

when I'm in doubt - I try aquatic-obessions...at the least he could order the media for you - but i'm guessing you want it "now"...so that doesn't help. Perhaps post a Q to him on their forum?

that is some serious plumbing - nice! If it were me there'd be like purple pvc stuff everywhere lol.

a work in progress...that sure is nice!!! My "work in progress" right now is sitting empty behind me...waiting for the funding to appear (or the ability to bump my hobby up the list of household "projects"). Maybe I can claim payments for all the shoveling I've been doing lately...though...

Well it's a good thing you came here - instead of following your DR plan listed on your avatar...I have done that a few times....(Heeeeeeeeellllllllllllllpppp!!) ;D

"do you expect me to talk?" "No Mr. bond I expect you to die". easy no?

From Randy Holmes Farley: Tips for Using TDS Meters 1. Always rinse the business end of TDS and conductivity meters before and after each use with as clean fresh water as you have available. The buildup of salts will interfere with proper operation, and the carryover of salts from one solution...

welcome!!!! nice tank! need a FTS to truly appreciate it!

you have a pm....

Ah the inquisition - what a show...the inquisition here we go. History of the World part I. just going with this theme (at incredulous speed)....a two-word quote: "Abby Normal" ;D ;D ;D ;D

Not familiar with the skimmer - but generally speaking - I would think its: brand new - and needs a break-in period... did you make sure the outlet pipe is wide open? If constricted or blocked - its possible the water would back up thru your collection container. Is the air intake wide open...
