I am just hoping it is the one frag and not multiple.

When my fiancee had her 20 setup in law school we had a pair of fire, pair of peppermint, and a pair of camelbacks all together and they did not bother each other. I don't know how big your tank is, but you should be fine with pairs of each. If you can, always get a pair they tend to stay out in...

I had it in a small DTs copepod container filled with water and I noticed it had "dropped" several small things that looked like eggs on the bottom. I think I will just eat the cost of the frag (20$) and go from there. It was already starting to bleach all around where that critter was.

Check out this link from one of our sponsors it give short yet valuable information on the function of each member of the clean up crew. http://www.pacificeastaquaculture.com/ShowProductCategory.aspx?CategoryId=4 Every emerald crab I have ever had became annoying as they molted and started...

It is solid like a tube and the purple part is the end of the tube. I pulled it out and put it in a small container, I do not have much hope for it. I would rather be safe than sorry.

When we made the jump from PC to T5s on the 20 we just took our time. Reduce the time period your light are on drastically and build from there. Also, if you can turn on different bulbs on your set, start with the blue ones and work your way up.

Thank you for the help James.

Just wanted to post a few more things about the tank setup: We cycled the tank for a month with just live rock and the powerheads to get rid of the debris and grow the bacteria. After that we pulled out everything, and cleaned the tank and put down the live sand bed. I also threw in a few...

You have to be very careful with the syringe and how much air is present in there when you do the test. It takes some trial and error to figure it out. Second make sure you are shaking it after each drop. Also, how old is the test?

The reef fanatic at this point is the winner for me. Now, my main question is what type of pump would I hook up to it? Basically it is going into a 10 gallon reservoir and will only be moving water up about 4 feet so I don't think I need too much. Any opinions would help.

For those of you thinking you bastard you did not post any pics here they are. I needed a beer after typing all of that (or maybe I had it before). Full tank shot: Top of the live rock: Our zoa rock forgot to mention the jokers: Some of the sticks we have including the birdsnest with nice...

If I were not so lazy I would have a sweet tale of the tank thread up and running from the start of this tank, however I am lazy so there. You would have all been waiting with baited breath for the next picture or update to come, but again I have failed you all. So for those of you who are into...

So I bought this nice piece of blue acro and added it to our new thirty. I started to notice that the bottom was losing color when all the other frags are doing super so I turned it around and found this thing. No idea what it was so I pulled the frag, need help with ID.

I do not have a sump but was going to setup a 10 g as a reserve to pump the water out of. I do like the idea of the OH CRAP turn off valve, none of us are perfect.

one other thought- do you dose and test for iodine?

Malulu's thread explains this pretty perfectly. Your LFS should sell an acclimation kit which is essentially a piece of airline tubing attached to a shaped piece of plastic, keeping the drip line from slipping out of tank and negating the need for the veggie clip. I got mine from Trop for about...

i understand, my fiancee is the coral guy- i like it, but i'm more into the fishies. How has the blue tang done in the 28G? I have wanted one badly for years, but have not purchased...

Very nice, love the close up of the coral. How long has it been up and running? What is on your stock list, I could not pick out any fishies from the pictures

We are having a bad two weeks.... We lost the squammie last week to a blue leg hermit crab that i found INSIDE of it, eating it from the inside out, and then we lost the my favorite fish, the flame on Sunday. I am not sure what happened, we noticed a gouge on his side on sunday evening, and by...

With the summer coming and the fact we are taking our honeymoon in October we were thinking about adding an ATO unit to our 30 g tank. The tank has a 250w MH pendant and an open top so evaporation has been a problem. Also, if we add a fan I know this will add to evaporation. I have been looking...
