    I'll find a shot of my old tank , but most are fine. Anemones are very intimidating, or they were to me. I feel like they'll grow in a puddle now. Don't get them online. I had terrible luck. Everything will take months and months to die from too little light. And they can die easily in a day or...

    First time reef tank plans

    Anemones in my experience don't do well in New tanks. And macro Algae pulls more nutrients than corals so you may have to dose nitrates and phosphates for it in a new tank. Most of those corals I mentioned don't really need dosing. Just an occasional water change. And you can always sell or...

    First time reef tank plans

    Good point. If he's gonna try it anyways. Cause most of us do...... If the Gramma has a proper cave to control and live in, they are much less likely to bully in my opinion. As for the clowns. There's a member on here Eric's 210 I think is the name. Someone will put the right one I'm sure. Super...

    First time reef tank plans

    Some advice if you want it... i am a very much biology first. I use very minimal non biological filtration. Sparingly. Month 1. Get some live rock in it or live media. Or live sand (real not the carb sea stuff). Very little light. I'm talking like 30-50 par tops. Assuming you can't or won't get...

    Culturing pods help!

    I can't find the original girl but this one is similar. Except they use skimmate instead of filter socks and just leave it outside.

    I saw a video of a girl in Florida that would just put her filter floss in totes outside and a few weeks later it would just be filled with pods

    Ati test result & what now?

    I think most of that stuff can be addressed with all for reef. I'd do a large water change, buffer up the alk with baking soda and start using all for reef.

    Culturing pods help!

    I've had the must success putting the culture in a bucket with live rock , filter floss etc and just dose the phyto and fish food as daily as possible. I had a 5 gallon tall, no fish reef on my Kitchen counter I used as a pod culture. It was by far my longest culture. Which in the end produced...

    Help with algae

    The snail tank at the lfs is always clean. Even if the snails and hermits aren't eating it they are running all over it annoying it to death. I have 1 Mexican turbo that basically keeps my whole tank clear of everything
