    how many watts for growing cheato in fuge?

    My fuge is about 18" tall, 7" deep and 36" long. I'd been trying to use one of those cheap clip on lamps from home depot but I'm not growing anything other than user frustration. So I was thinking of mounting a 1 bulb 24" T5 fixture down there, or spending more more money on an LED...

    fire dept just left - don't buy cheap powerstrips

    Not aquarium related - pc related, but since we all use some type of power distribution for our aquariums - just take this as a reminder to not buy cheap powerstrips and that they do go bad so replace semi-frequently. As I was pulling in at work the wife called and said the basement was filled...

    should i still buy this coral?

    Lol. Mike, don't take this the wrong way, and I don't mean to make fun of a coral dying, but that last sentence did make me chuckle for a minute. Yeah, that's a bad reaction. ;) Have you ever used peroxide on zoas? Was curious as I picked up some the other week for a seperate smaller tank I...

    reef to reptiles

    Went here last night. This is now my favorite store. Only problem for me is the 2 hour drive. Great corals, clean tanks and more importantly I really enjoy buying from good people. Greg seems like a great guy and didn't mind answering my 187.4 questions I asked. :D

    Picasso clown on carpet

    Thanks. Yes, he's doing fine now. It's a closed top. He must have gotten out with the drip line. Even with that, not sure ,how, but he's doing well now.

    Picasso clown on carpet

    After setting up a drip line tonight, my wife yelled into the basement 10 mins later that our one clown fish was on the carpet. It couldn't have been more than 10 mins, maybe as little as 5. I scooped him up as carefully as I could and tossed him back in. He just laid there for awhile and I was...

    Rod's Food

    I'm not a fan. I'm convinced the red slime in my tank is a result of using Rods. I threw the rest out.

    red slime elimination tips?

    Thanks all. Guess it's time to drop in the other vortech. Have 2 but was hoping to get by with just one on the one end of the 4' tank because the other end gets viewed a lot.

    red slime elimination tips?

    Looking for some tips on eliminating red slime. I don't have a lot yet and have stopped using Rods because I believe that's the source. Any suggestions on how to eliminate what's already in the tank? thx.

    Big Trouble...Tank about to break!! Help Quick!!!

    Sorry I missed this last week. I'm over just west of Morristown and have an extra plastic 55g barrel you could use. I used it to cycle my rock in when I was waiting on getting the tank up and running. If you need any help - give me a shout.

    Algae trough

    Hope this isn't a totally stupid question, but what's the difference between using a trough like that or using a fuge? Both have flow with algae and neither are in the display tank. Seems like a trough is basically a hang on fuge (although I'm probably missing something). Only asking because I'm...

    Duncan close to torch

    Right now there is plenty of distance between my duncan and my new torch. As they grow, and especially as the torch extends out, will they hurt each other? Thx

    how to balance sg formula

    Is there a site or formula that will help you figure out how much water to add with one sg to bring your existing water to the level you want? For example, when away I came home to a tank at 1.027 (I normally try to stay at 1.024). If it's a 120g, with roughly 25g in the sump and 20g in the...
