I change carbon out monthly in my 12 gallon, and chemi pure about every other month. The chemi pure really helps pulling nitrates out of the water and reduces the algae.
Went here for the first time on Sunday and was very impressed with the whole experience. We were able to pick up some corals and a new cherub angel fish along with some fish foods that are not carried around us. The staff was very helpful and made the whole experience very easy. You can spend an...
Thank god I grabbed those pics, we woke up the next morning and the anem has moved to the back of the tank (of course where we can't see him and near the filter intake). The clowns not go to where he was and not where he is, so this process could start all over again. The good news is that the...
It happened so suddenly we were both shocked and I just grabbed my cellphone. I would have loved to wash it down, but every time we move towards the tank they think they are getting fed and shoot up to the top of the tank. So we were lucky even to get those. Plus the salt drip adds ambiance to...
I have a 12 gallon JBJ nano stock with no upgrades on it at all. Have been running it for about 5 months. You can try the skimmer, most nano skimmer are pretty poor in performance. They have the sapphire one on nanocustoms.com that is apparently pretty good. I used the sponges and carbon that...

I'ld skip the snowflake if I were you. About a year ago an unscrupulous LFS sold my fiancee and I a 6" snowflake. He was really cute at the time, he looked like a little spotted pencil, but within 3 months he went from 6" to 12". We couldn't keep anything else in the tank with him, and he...
Welcome back to the hobby. Nanos can be very very fun and a good stepping stone up to a bigger tank.
1. You can get some zoanthind polyps which are generally considered "starter corals". They don't require a high light output and you can find some absolutely beautiful colors out there. Also...
I'm the fiancee of MNAT, congrats on the new tank. The red coraline on your LR looks nice. Good luck with the live coral- you might want to consider asking a reefer friend to foster it for a few weeks/months if you want to keep it. Generally, when cycling a new tank, nitrates, nitrates and...
Here is my fiancee 20 gallon. We are currently using it as somewhat as a holding tank before the 30 gets fully setup.
a bit blurry, but he wouldn't sit in his little chair
