    Brewing up a batch of brine shrimp ... any advice?

    Here's a nice link. I tend to trust this site when it comes to brine shrimp as it is needed for baby seahorse food. http://www.seahorse.org/library/articles/artemiaGuide.shtml

    piping change

    I have tried opening the vent size. I've even taken the plug all the way off to see if that helps but to no avail. I don't believe that I am trying to put to much flow through the overflow. It is a one inch bulkhead and I only have a mag 3 running this tank. (seahorse tank). The...

    piping change

    I might try putting a ball valve on the piping to slow it down. Thanks for the help.

    piping change

    Ok I have a 24" cube with an overflow that is only in the top corner with the bulkhead through the back of the tank. It has a 1" bulkhead and one Inch piping. The way the piping is currently I am getting the occasional whooshing sound because the water level rises and falls. (like on a...

    diy stand generator program

    Seems like they go a bit overboard with their stands. But I'm sure they have to so that somebody doesn't sue them if the stand fails.

    Anemone Propagation

    sorry Levi, I don't think that it will ever clone. It is perfectly happy taking up the left third of my tank. :)

    Anemone Propagation

    As far as the heater problem couldn't you take a couple of pieces of 2" PVC pipe and cut them in 1" lengths. Then wrap the two pieces in fiberglass screen over the length of the heater. I'm sure some superglue gel will hold the screen to the PVC. Basically just forming a tube around the...

    Compatible?

    I agree, I've never heard of anybody successfully keeping linkias, not even in much larger systems.

    Leaking Pipes

    I recently had done some new plumbing on an existing tank and had a leak as well. I tried adding glue to the joint to no avail. I had to cut the joint out and basically start over...talk about a pain in the butt.

    Help!

    I agree with Ed that seems like a lot of light over that small of a tank. I would imagine that your corals aren't coming out because they are getting "burnt".

    butterfly food

    I can try it. I'm sure I can get just about any type of food. I would like to try the Rod's food Nikki. I have tried the arctic pods and he just looks at them. He does get excited when I first put them in as if some type of feeding response has been initiated, but then just swims around...

    butterfly food

    The butterfly doesn't seem to like any food that doesn't resemble a mysis shrimp. He was eating them when I bought him and that's what he has eaten ever since. Like I said I've tried to get him to eat other foods and even tried to replicate his natural hunting instinct. I've stuck food in...

    butterfly food

    After many attempts at trying to get my copperband butterfly nice and fat I decided to get some professional help. Knowing that everybody on the internet is a professional I called upon the almighty google. I typed in copperband butterfly diet. Not to my surprise I saw many of the same things...

    Astrea Snails Dying Wtf

    25 snails in a 55 sounds like too many. Just because there is algae for them to eat doesn't mean that is what they want to eat. I believe Coral Magazine did an article on hermit crabs in which they showed that many people keep too many crabs in their aquariums. Too many crabs and too little...

    Twist lock flanges

    Well look at the brightside....was your laptop a dell? Maybe they will be using it and it will catch fire, due to their defective batteries. Oh the ultimate revenge.
