    Question About Surface Water Level in Tank???.......

    I agree with others,more flow as in powerheads.Or the return line.Also gd point about the overflow box,is the slits where the water travels into it?I also noticed slight signs of cyano building up,which could also be a lack of flow indication along with other potential issues that are building.I...

    Fish food and phosphates

    Matt, But would you think it would be high enough to cause a HA outbreak? I feed frozen food once a week,and feed flake in small amounts daily and I cant say I have any issues with HA.I know every tank is differant but..next time I make up a batch of "chum" I will do a test and see.I guess this...

    Fish food and phosphates

    Ok lets give this some thght.As we know corals will feed on small amounts of phosphates(at least thats what I was told awhile back) so Im not sure I would put much stock in the idea that a small amount added to yr tank via frozen or gel food would cause a breakout of hair algea.Unless of course...

    Acclimating a fish now...I am afraid to pull the trigger and add him. Lil help please

    I would second think the damsel,I have had many damsels and some have incredible colors as juvi's,but as the mature they lose those colors and become drab looking.Also IMO I think as most damsels get bigger the meaner they get,sometimes even bitting the hand that feeds them.I currently have a...

    De-Ionization resins

    And as a side note,you can check with yr township water dept and they should be able to do a water test for you and in most cases free of charge

    Rocks

    I think the only thing having no fuge light would affect the cheato not growing to its full potental..which I guess could affect nitrates,the cheato isnt absorbing the extra nutrients which in turn could feed the ahir algea.

    Rocks

    I agree with the others that posted so far.Seems to be the old fashioned piling of rocks(rock"walls") are a thing of the past.Open cave type,arches and sculpted piles are a better choice.Some use epoxy and pvc pipes,plastic pull ties,and even small sections of pvc pipe to elevate the rocks off...
