    Shallow Reef Tank

    Deep Blue 65g shallow reef-ready rimless. Made a great reef, would make an excellent frag tank. Perfect condition, no scratches. Includes plumbing and 3 chamber 20g sump. Will throw in unskinned 40" stand if you'd like it (if not its my new chopsaw table). $150

    No idea what this is...

    I was sifting through the sand in the old tank (hoping to find my giant spaghetti worm, which I didnt) and found a small rock with a few zoas on it as well as a few things I initially thought were some form of red bubble algae. But, they appeared to have some sort of lighter pink mottled pattern...

    Build help please - stocking

    Hi all. Tank is coming together. Planning on doing some livestock switchovers on Wednesday and could use some help. Question 1: I was planning on just catching fish in current tank, placing each (individually) in 1/2 gallon plastic containers, floating containers in new tank while acclimating...

    Raising Blackworms

    Thanks go to Paul B for getting me into this. It's probably the best thing I've done for my fish, though I am still waiting for the supermodels to show up. Please keep in mind this guide is written for 70-90g tanks. You may have to upscale a bit for a larger system. I'm unsure if it would work...

    Gyre problem?

    Hey all. Had my Gyre 130 for a few months now. Maintained well. It hasn't made any invert (or other) kills. I'm sure its a previous blade build. Regardless... a few nights ago I began to hear it from 2 rooms away. It's set on 40% pulse and hasn't changed in months. Starting to drive me nuts as...

    Anthias starving?

    Anthias in tank for 1 year+ and eating anything available. About 7-10 days ago, as far as I can tell, it just stopped eating. Did the normal food for a few days and observed. It would come out at feeding time, but just not participate. Pellet, flake, frozen and live blackworms, fresh clam...

    MP10 for Gyre130

    Happy with config of gyre130 on side and MP10ES on back wall. Then got to thinking it might be cool to go 2 gyres, 1 horizontal, 1 vertical. So, figured I'd see if anyone wants to make a trade - excellent condition MP10 for excellent condition gyre. Mark

    Powerhead positioning

    So, I'm debating on the positioning of my powerheads for the 90g. I plan on using a Gyre 130 and an MP10. The 90g is a deep blue reef ready with the overflow on the left. I plan on having a 'dual mountain' build. Anyone have anything similar they might comment on? I'm thinking of having the...

    Build help please - lighting

    OK, so the sump is ready to go for the new 90 and I'm working the plumbing this weekend. The big moment is upon me, I have to consider lighting (LED). The 90 I'm building has a canopy. The canopy is part of the 'allowing the build in the kitchen deal'. So, it stays. Currently I have 2 Mazarras...
