When anemone climbs the glass it usually means two things:
a) In most cases the light is not strong enough, and they are "reaching" for it. What kind of lights do you have? How big (deep) is your tank? Rock/Flower anemone like to wedge in the rocks or burry in the sand. Can your aquascaping...
Can I ask you all a question...dont mean to hijack the thread...my question is similar.
I ordered a flower anemone during the group buy. I was under the impression it would stay down in the sand or along some rock but mine decided to move right to the top of the glass. In front where i get to...
I was in last night ... they were very helpful in picking out some food for me. I was really impressed with the work they have put in recently. Really liked their livestock looked super happy and healthy.
OK I am a huge newbie but let me reply anyways because my pain is fresh.
First scares me that they are using a "failed" FW system. 30+years of FW and it wasn't
a whole lot of help with salt.
Second...who ever said don't worry about RO water ...worry I am still trying to get the crap out of my...
I just got my refractometer from Tropiquariam and I like it a lot. Fairly heavy piece of equipment. Was just over 50 bucks with tax. They have in stock now just FYI.
That is a great set of statements, more books should start out with those paragraphs. :)
I agree we would need to know what he wants in the tank. But I like this thread in general.
Thanks guys.
Gotcha...if you can get it to make Darth Vader noises that would be cool ;D. Still I would think about including the chiller hoses but maybe I don't understand your plumbing too. So just thinking outloud sorta.
Don't mind me but if you are building something from scratch why not make a complete cover for your the three right hand chambers. If your cheato is in the far left one I am assuming(or in the future will be). You could make a cover that the two chiller lines screw into or go through and are...
Unfortunately while he is very helpful he doesn't communicate very well. I know that may not make sense but I was looking for a refractometer(sp?) and I couldn't get him to understand what I was looking for eventually he showed me a nice test kit :-\. Might be a language issue not a knowledge...
Wow that was a big upgrade :o. You decided not to DIY a mod yourself I guess. Looks great if very blue. Can you give us a pic with the lights out to see the hanging job?
Algae sux >:( but everything looks really beautiful ;D. Maybe the evil grapes are doing some good. Lights are really sweet so I guess you get some bad with the good.

These links will give you a very very basic understanding of lights. Once you have that then keep researching them. Blue as in colored glass blue or spectrum blue. Please be...
Like your tank a lot how did you put it all together? Feel free to give more details.
I love hawkfish...I had one when my tank was FOWLR ...does yours bother your inverts?
Good job on the salt. If I can make a suggestion. I think you are going to want more structure in your tank. By that I mean rock. If you want to go cheaper you can even add base rock ... rock that does not have bacteria. Since you have some live rock now it will seed the base rock.
Or best find...
Hey Krylon
First congratulations by making it here. The people are really helpful and you will learn a lot. You have a pretty small "reef tank" though there are a lot of us nano reefers. I would suggest you take a look at all the build theads of the people there. And if you go to...
I did exactly the same opposite side of the tank good flow above the guy but not direct. Mine is not quite in the middle but I have compacts. It has grown like crazy the last few weeks since I got it at the frag swap.
What are you feeding it if anything?
