We mainly feed rods reef and PE mysis to our angels. We will toss in a nori sheet every now and again because they do like some greens. We had a pygmy for a while and they are great fish (got sucked into a powerhead after getting stung my an anem, we were pissed). The tricky thing with angels...

It lasts a while in the freezer. Since we only have nanos we don't go through a lot and packs last us a few months (expect when I leave it out on the counter overnight).

You might want to pick another angel or you are going to have to wait awhile to get a potters angel. Just from some quick reading (I have never kept one) they are considered expert only and need a well established system to graze on. Tank size recommendations range from 30 to 75 gallons. If you...

I agree with Phyl with the nori clip, our angles eat that. We had a coral beauty for a while and fed it Rods Food and mysis. It just might not be weened onto frozen food yet and you might have to try some live food (again in agreement with Phyl). If the fish is swimming and active and picking at...

They are all doing great, opening right on up. Did the other two frags you have survive?

That is really really cool. I love the rimless look, hence my new tank purchase.

If you can remove the frag plugs and rock, pull them out and scrub them with a toothbrush in a container of water. This will cover the symptom but will not cure your problems. Hair algae will stick around if you have high levels of nitrates and/or phosphates. Old PC bulbs shift to a redder...

They might also get an appetite for small gobies as well. We have a long nosed hawk right now that sometimes bothers our shrimp but the shrimp are all bigger than him. I hope he doesn't get too big.

The only thing I have seen him nip at is the gorgonian. I don't know if he is nipping at algae on a bare spot or the actual gorgonian polyps. The flame does not bother anything else, but we really don't have any fleshy LPS (besides frogspawn) or clams. He has left our zoas alone and they are all...

Quick view of our new aquascaping and frag garden:

Unfortunately this will probably be one of the last updates we do on this tank as it will be broken down into our 57 gallon when we set it up in about a month. The 20g will not go down without a fight though and we have some new updates. We started with a "tester" acan frag I bought off of a...

So we picked up some new stuff for the 30g. First, we needed to replace the picasso clown that got sucked into a powerhead. We did not want to leave the other one alone for too long out of the fear of it getting to aggressive. When we picked up the new tank at AO they had one left and he...

They went with the megaflow, it does not look huge to me but then again this is my first drilled tank with an overflow.

Here is a new site that has gained a lot of attention out at reefaplooza in California. Don't know anything about them personally, but they look pretty cool. http://dev.ecoxotic.com/

So we picked up our new tank today form AO from their tank promo. It has a center overflow and is drilled with 3/4 inch and 1 inch bulkheads. The stand is pretty cool and has doors on three sides so you can access it from any side. We are breaking down the 20 gallon tank and everything will go...

Had a 10k bulb, and went right to the 14k pheonix. A lot of people on this forum recommended them, so I picked one up and I am verry happy with it. Found my old thread were I did a comparison with pictures. Hope this helps...

If you are going 250w and want a good 14k bulb get the Pheonix 14k. Love that bulb and they make it in double end and single end (I know this because I accidently bought the se bulb and it sits in its box at home).

+1 for Rods, all of our fish love it.

A lot of people use it to simulate dawn and dusk patterns to give more natural lighting to the reef. Others use it because of the color pop it gives to corals. The old logic was that 10k and whiter bulbs were for growth and 20k or bluer bulbs were for looks. While this still holds mostly true, I...

What kind of lights are you running?
