    Advice for getting out of the hobby?

    Def. Better off selling off equipment. Chances of someone wanting to purchase an entire setup are slim and if so they are not going to be willing to pay the price you are probably going to ask for. You can def recoup some of your money by parting everything out.

    Is it algae or detritus that has built up over time that is in the sandbed? If so just do sections at a time when doing water changes. I usually put a siphon right next to baster when cleaning sections of my sandbed and by the time I fill up 5 gallons the water is doodoo brown.

    Looking to trade a large toadstool

    Have a softball size toadstool I’m looking to trade. Let me know what you have. It’s the one in the front. The rear one is the mother that’s about the size of a mini basketball. It’s a little pissed right now because I’m in process of cutting off rockwork.

    This anenome worth putting in tank

    Yes that’s the only issue being non photosynthetic, but I do hand feed seaweed once a day and hopefully I can keep it happy with mysis, clams and shrimp. It does grab food from my tongs and bring to its mouth which is pretty neat

    This anenome worth putting in tank

    I made the mistake of adding RBTA in my tank and now I have a ton that are hard to remove since they are in my rock work and walk all over. I ended up getting this guy, a tube anenome. They don’t move and look amazing. They need a sand bed. You bury their tube in sand like planting a bulb...

    Auto feeder

    I have to say I love the Avast feeder. The auger style is so precise with feedings. I feed freeze dried 4 times a day and every time I know I am getting the same amount each time. I throw in a concoction of freeze dried foods and mix it up in the canister. Fish know when feeding times are as...

    What’s up with my return pump

    I have my return sealed from the display so snails can’t get into the plumbing. My return lines in the tank are not big enough for a snail to crawl into.
