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.
To add on to what NikkiT said, bangaii's are not schooling or shoaling fish. When they are juveniles they hang out in groups but as they get older and bigger they will split off. If you don't seperate them out, you will have some violence and probably death.
If this is for the fish tank (which I assume it is) for the top town box

They also have an extra long one.
As far as macro lenses go, I have no clue. I know many of the people who have Macros for fish tanks say get at least...
Generally when people are mixing and storing water they run a heater and a pump or bubbler in them. This keeps the water up to temperature and aerated so when it is finally added to the tank there is little change in temp, salinity and aeration.
Generally you will mix water for a water change...
Arvin we just went through something similiar a few months ago. Nikki was coming home from visiting her brother in law when a kid ran a red light and hit her car on the rear passenger tire and spun it around. We went to the hospital but nothing was wrong and she walked out of there. We paid...
When I started in the hobby it was when my wife was in law school and we were down in Camden NJ. We went to a local LFS down there that sold us a ton of stuff that we had no business having in our tanks but we were not members here or on any website at the time and we should have done our...
If you can get a cell phone pic up of it that would make it easier to identify. Considering you are new it is probably diatoms which is generally a very common problem with a new tank setup and will burn off with time.
I really hate to be the bearer of bad news but here goes. You really need...
It looks like you are running everything HOB which is fine I did that for years so you don't really have a lot of extra room to play with besides the HOB fuge. I would probably keep as much as I could in there, but you could always look for more porous rock or try and change the design a bit...
What type of damsels are they? Also I have never heard of damsels that eat flatworms. I would seriously seriously seriously reconsider adding damsels to your tank.
BTW your rics looks amazing.
Nanos are harder to keep then larger tanks because your margin for error is razor thin. Any ammonia, I mean any at all is going to be deadly in that small a tank. You added more liverock which is good but your tank continues to cycle because you have to give it time or add an insta cycle...
We were there early on Sarturday and got to chat with Jamie and the crew. Came home with a few things and got to look at the 160xl again and realize how big it is compared to what we have now.
