    flat worms eat Coraline?

    As far as I know, flatworms eat detritus. Never read anything about them eating coraline. As far as the zoa's, they just aren't happy enough. That could be water quality, lighting, or flow. I would detach them from your outside rock and put them on some LR and get rid of the other rock. On...

    fowlr setup

    Well, that just depends. If you're going to keep the same sort of setup you have now with the canister filter, go with a CPR bakpak. One thing though, take everything but the carbon and the filter floss out of the canister. Don't use any of the bioballs or ceramin rings if it has it. If it...

    fowlr setup

    Get yourself some live rock and you're good to go. The canister filter will give you enough flow for the time being. I may take a little more then a week or 2 though. If you get good cycled live rock, it may take a couple days. Then again, it could take a few weeks.

    ehiem 1260 mods? help?

    I've read the same thing over on RC. For the added cost and issues, I don't see the big deal about it.

    20H Seahorse tank

    I don't know about the cloudiness. That can be caused by several different things, but I doubt it's the plants. Having had freshwater planted tanks for quite a while now, those micro bubbles you're referring to in the freshwater world is called pearling. I don't know if it's the same for...

    Any Ideas on T5 Problem?

    Reading over at RC in the MSX owners thread, they say the 200 should be in 8" of water. Originally, I had put it in 10" because that's what my baffles are at. A couple days ago I put a 1.5" stand under it cause that's about all the room I had. I don't notice any difference at all visually...

    Losing Fish and not sure why!!

    That's overstocked? I could see that if they were all fully grown maybe. I love it when some people will say a tank is overstocked then you go to their house and they have more fish then the person they were goin off on. Not that that is anyone who said anything, just an observation of the...

    dd911's 40B Project...

    I can tell you, the only thing you can hear when sitting within a couple feet of the tank is the vortech powerhead.

    Foxface / Rabbitfish eating

    Mine is a total ham. I have to take 25% more pics because he always seems to come flying in at the last second. If I put my head near the tank to look at something, he gets right in front of my face and will stay there no matter where I move.

    Sounds like a plan to me.

    Foxface / Rabbitfish eating

    My scribbled seems to eat just about everything except the red algae I feed the tangs. It doesn't even look at it. Once a month I switch out a rock from my fuge just to clean the hair algae off and move copepods into the display and he goes crazy and doesn't leave the rock till it's picked clean.

    Gotfish's 125g

    I don't want a canopy. Sarang, we're gonna have to go fishing one of these days. I'm surprised that you talk to people who don't know we have crappies here. Just about every lake in the area has them. I usually toss them back along with blue gills. That's all we used to catch when I was a...

    Gotfish's 125g

    Yeah, I'm waiting on Roscoe to get his xenia fuge up so I can thin them out a bit. Seeing as how things are going, I may step down a slight bit and buy the ATI sunpower seeing as I'd save myself about $200. It would still be quite the upgrade over the Nova pro that's on there now.

    Need Carbon for cheap price for Salt water aquarium

    It is safe for fish, but I don't understand how he's getting 27 pounds unless it's some really heavy carbon. Either way, carbon is usually sold by volume, not by weight. I buy it from here http://www.bulkreefsupply.com/Carbon-and-Phosphate-Remover-GFO-Bulk-Carbon/c109_6/index.html You'll...

    Do the prices for the sunpower fixtures include bulbs?

    Gotfish's 125g

    About a day. I had it in a brackish tank that was around 1.008 already so that helped. She's a good glass cleaner. Her and the rabbitfish are never very far away from each other for some reason. Pretty funny to watch the 2 of them interact.

    Do they generally have sand all over them from a dragon goby who hasn't figured out he can spit out sand somewhere besides right over the top of them?

    Pyram Snail Ident./Behavior

    I'd have to say no. The crab is only going to kill 1 snail to get it's shell. I doubt you'd see hermits killing them for food being that there are easier ways to get it.

    Bad IO salt, or bad Elos test kits?

    I get what you're saying, but I'd say that's one heck of a pipe dream. Considering they make up probably millions of buckets of salt a year worldwide, getting the consistency we all do is pretty good. Who knows, maybe this particular bucket has settled and just needs mixed up. This is the...

    Bad IO salt, or bad Elos test kits?

    No kidding, what's the problem here? You seem a bit upset because you don't have to add calcium?
