    Help with Stocking

    Prazi is a great medicine for a bunch of different parasites (internal and external) that is widely used in the aquarium. Fish can lose appetite during treatment so just keep that in mind, some people like to make sure they are eating before they dose the prazi to make sure they have a healthy...

    Placement of Corls

    Zoas depending on where they are coming from can be high light or low light so it is going to depend on each frag. The general rule of thumb is to start low and then move them up if they are stretching for light. Be careful with the button polyps and keep them isolated off the live rock. They...

    What SPS additives do you use?

    As I posted in another thread: DISCLAIMER: Dosing for SPS is not a magic cure all that will give you instant color, pe and growth IF YOUR ALK, CAL, AND MAG are our of line. With that being said, if you are running a ULNS system through zeo or biopellets/carbon dosing, it has been shown that...

    Help with Stocking

    The gold assesors from ORA are cheaper and AO has them in stock right now, not to mention I would always recommend tank raised over wild caught (if available). 4 anthias is not an issue, they do better in harems of one male and many females so 1 male and three females would be fine. The...

    Some Corals are dying off. Others are growing.

    Keep the phosguard. Pulling the kent carbon was smart, there was a recall at some point I believe on it as this problem has popped up for a lot of people. You do not want to make too many changes too soon, or that could hurt the corals as well. I use the BRS rox carbon which seems to be a very...

    Help with Stocking

    At first I though that was just a list of fish you were picking from not all of them. That would be too many fish for the tank. 1. Anthias: Take a look at: http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/prod_display.cfm?c=15+20+1553&pcatid=1553 They are also smaller and tend to be more hardy. Just...

    Vermetid snails...

    Mystery wrasses are one of the fish who love them. We clipped them with a pair of bone cutters as well. As much as I hate to say this, if they are just on the zoa colony, get rid of the zoa colony. As others have said they can spread and be really hard to keep on top of.

    40g mixed reef

    I think is time for that 80. Corals look great.

    Planning new build, input appreciated

    Just make sure the 80g is drillable and not all tempered glass. I know some other have run into the fact with deep blue tanks (though not in this size). I have the rimless tank and love it, so it is a very good choice. The overflow is not huge, but I understand in a penninsula style layout...

    Classklown's 40B SPS Paradise

    Nice write up, so if I am reading this correctly, 10mls per week is the dosage? It is very hard to have a true scientific comparison whenever you are dealing with live animals, so we get as close as we can. Have you kept an eye on growth in the time period and how is compares to other times?

    Classklown's 40B SPS Paradise

    Anything with aminos and other stuff is going to have some nutrients. Thank you for writing this, I know Trop is getting some in and I will be picking up a bottle. I may have missed it, but how much are you dosing and what intervals are you dosing it at?
