    Anyone out there good at building small glass tanks?

    You'll want to use the RTV103 or RTV108 silicone mcoomer posted, the first stuff posted isn't as strong.

    Were to get Glass? & Cut?

    To keep baffles in place, you'll want to use a high-grade silicone. RTV108 (Clear) or RTV103 (Black) are what you want to use, you can get them from Grainger if you have an account, or online has plenty of sites too, I used drillspot.com and was satisfied. These silicones are what tank-makers...

    Were to get Glass? & Cut?

    Acrylic will absorb water and expand. If you make them too tight-fitting, they'll crack your sump.

    My Marine Betta needs diagnosis

    Yes, it's quite commonly used in the Pond (Koi) world, but is suitable for both FW and SW. I found it at a local store, but it's available online, Link Link 2 I should also mention, Furan 2 (by API, same makers as Maracyn) also contains Nitrofurazone...

    My Marine Betta needs diagnosis

    I'm not sure how Lee feels about this, but if the Maracyn II treatment has been thus far ineffective, it may be time to move on to another brand/medication. Nitrofurazone (Hikari BiFuran) possibly?

    New tank- old live rock- any cycle?

    There will likely be a small cycle. Nothing like a fresh tank though.

    Problem with feeding.

    Depending on the fish size, and your refugium size. I'd leave him be. Constantly moving him around is hurting your chances of success with the fish. Every time you move him, you put him in a new tank and everything "resets" back to square-one. If your refugium is big enough that he has a...

    Problem with feeding.

    Any updates? Naso tangs seem to be one of the slowest to adapt tangs. Our Naso took two weeks before she'd eat anything other than Caulerpa & Chaeto off the clip.

    Is this flukes?

    What are you treating the fish with for Ich? Hypo or Copper? PraziPro is relatively safe for all fish, so it definitely wouldn't hurt to treat the fish, even it's its just prophylactically..

    Also looks like it could be the beginnings of HLLE.

    One juvi leopard wrasse chasing the other

    I'd have to say that they're likely just establishing dominance.

    reef safe fish to control pests

    A canary wrasse would be a good addition to your tank. They are not nearly as aggressive as Six Lines and will still do a good job on pest control duties.

    Fin Rot?!? Juvi. Emp Angel

    Lee, I have a couple questions about the Maracyn II treatment. I am treating the fish with M II, and per the instructions, it says it may cloud when in use. Currently it is very cloudy, and the fish's breathing rate is increased. Should I be worried about the increased breathing rate? How...

    Just did a 15% water change and added the Maracyn II with it. Wish me luck!
