    Purigen in a phosban reactor?

    Finally purchased a 2nd ViaAqua phosban reactor to use exclusively with Purgien. Is anyone else here running one, can you give me any tips/photos on how to set it up (sort of leaving the purigen inside of a bag) so that the little beads don't escape though the reactor? Thanks!

    Mystery clown goby with furry head?!!?

    Posted on RC earlier as I wanted to get as many eyes as possible... anyone here have any ideas? What is he? Is the "furriness" a disease or just a weird fish trait? http://reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1600158

    zoa pox, where can I get furan 2 near Middletown?

    Ugh... I decided when I set up my 8g biocube it would be a zoa tank (since I lost all almost all of mine in my aquapod when I grew out the toadstools) I purchased a few frags, moved a couple that were in my 70g... things were going well then I realized one frag wasn't opening much, the tank is...

    Looking to start dosing 2 part... need info/links

    Hi Everyone I've never dosed anything in my tanks, just maintained them with weekly 20% water changes, while things have gone well I'd like to have them go better, very little coralline in my 70g I'm assuming as the corals are using any available calcium. I've love any basic info, as I really...

    Purple firefish & randall's pistol shrimp.... same burrow!

    (wasn't sure if this should go under inverts or fish, please move as you see fit mods) I'd love some input on this situation, and to know if it's going to end badly. I have a Randall's pistol shrimp in my 24g aquapod, he was added as a tiny little guy and has gotten some good size on himself...

    Candi's 8g biocube adventure

    I was terrible about documenting the setup and development of both my 24g aquapod and my 70g oceanic so I'm going to make sure to do it with this tank! I've been wanting another tank for some time and knew this was about the max size I had any room for. I had been putting it off until my fish...

    I could use a dremel for some little projects around the house, things on the tanks, crafts... nothing "major" and would love any recommendations, I was looking at a few different kits on amazon and really have no idea, is the 300 series a good one for basic needs? Thanks!

    Not loving the color on my new Nova Extreme Pro, bulb recommendations

    I openly admit to being completely lost when it comes to bulbs, so I'm hopeful someone here can lead me in the right direction while I fit in reading up more on my own too. I have a 24g aquapod with stock lighting and was running a current orbit on my 70g, both had the same type of bulbs a...

    Weird question, is there a tool that can cut a hole in the side of a canopy?

    I will try to get some photos this week but hopefully I can explain decently. My new fixture came and as I suspected it's a tight fit in the canopy.. VERY tight. No way I could run it this way as the fans are right up against the side. I assume I could drill a bunch of holes in the side for...

    Jawfish wants to eat new goby...

    Long story short, I attempted to add a yellow headed jawfish to my 70g a couple weeks ago. The other fish decided she wasn't welcomed and after chasing her into the overflow 2x and trying for a third I pulled her out. She's back in my qt awaiting for me to set up a biocube in the next week or...

    Anyone have a stock Oceanic Canopy.... I have a couple questions

    I have a 70g Oceanic tank (so the canopy is the 58/70 size).
