    Slime coating

    Slime coating

    I have a crocea clam that I have had for about a months. Its seems to be doing great other than every so often it closes really quick to let the slime underneath float to the top. The slime floats because there are a bunch of bubbles attached to it. I have a bad microbubble problem that I am...

    Reef Safe Butterflies..

    I have a longnose butterfly, and it doesn't really bother anything in my tank. It spends the majority of its day picking pods off the front on my tank. Bear in ming that I have only had this fish for a month or so. It is a pig and will eat anything that it can get in its mouth when I feed...

    would like to make my 55 into a sump

    I did the same thing with my 125g. I took my old 55g and turned it into the sump for it. What I did is made two bubble traps and seperated the center compartment for my skimmer and a refugium.

    Who put this in my tank!!!(LOL)

    While I have never had valeonia in my tank before I have dealt with it. Personally, I think it looks cool. I don't like a sterile tank though. I like have certain algaes in my tank. I like my tank to look natural which does include algae. While it can get to plague proportions it takes time.

    Compatibility check and substrate recommendation?

    Not so much of a compatibility issue, but just the same stuff always related to the long term care of mandarins: copepods. Do you plan on setting up a refugium? If so then as long as you wait awhile (3 months) before you add it then it will probably be ok. Without a refugium you will simply...

    Cabinet for my ballast, chiller &......

    That is exactly what I want to do with me ballasts. I am having problems though since the end of the pig tail coming out of the hood allows 8 inches for each cord, which includes 3 MH, 2 VHO, and fans. So basically I can't get any ballast more than 8" away from any other ballast.

    how much liverock do i need 4 a 125 gallon??

    Maybe all the stuff is really expensive up there. I personally have only paid $3.50 a pound for rock, and I have only purchased 10 lbs out of the 160 lb I have.

    Hand-caught, net-free fish ;)

    All the clowns I have dealt with have been very territorial and have bit me numerous times, though thankfully they weren't extremely large and couldn't do any damage. Very cool BTW. Do you have link for some info on how you do everything?

    lighting detail for soon to be my 300gl.

    That is a lot of info to cover. Do you have any idea on what exactly you plan to keep in the tank?

    new baby bubble king skimmers

    I know you are obsessed with skimmers, but doesn't $1087 for a skimmer seem a little much consider it is only good for 260 gallons, or is there something I am missing.

    Best MH Bulb

    Personally the colors produced by 20000k look fake. It just has this blue color that doesn't quite look right to me.
