    Bristle Worms are Amazing!

    The majority on the ones I have are small little guys, either pinkish/orangeish or that color on the ends with black in the middle. Observation is one way of telling, but before someone jumps on here and slams me for saying that, alot of critters are opertunists, or may change their behavior as...

    Bristle Worms are Amazing!

    When I got started in the hobby the popular opinion was that they were mostly all bad. I never listened, mainly because I was lucky enough not to have any "bad" ones in my tank and the ones that I had never seemed to be hurting anything. There are definitely some that are detrimental bastards...

    running sump without cheato ?

    Well, I've been running a sump that had two 4" filter socks that I replaced every 2-3 days. That sump recently met an untimely end though and I'm replacing it with another one that will hold 4" socks also. So, to answer your question, no I don't run filter floss or sponges, just the socks (same...

    Bristle Worms are Amazing!

    You've seen this happen? Wow! The bristle worms in my tank only come out at night (the larger ones anyway). I've always agreed though that the majority of them are beneficial.

    running sump without cheato ?

    I've never had cheato or any other macro algae in my sump. There's always seemed to be a healthy pod population in my display tank, but I don't have any fish that specifically target pods. I've also always been under the impression that the intended benefits of running carbon/chaeto aren't...

    What not to do to your sump

    I may do it just for the experience, but I really don't see this thing going back into service. I've already ordered a new sump.

    Disappearing Fish!

    Is it a reef ready aquarium? (built in overflow box) I had a clown years back that had somehow managed to jump into the overflow box. Lived in there for several months before I finally got him out. Or, you might have a predatory crab in there somewhere. Do you ever put a flashlight to your tank...

    Proper Powerhead sizing

    I agree, a couple of K3s would probably do you good and there's no rework of any kind. The Maxijet mods are really super easy to do though; if you can take them out of the box, then you can figure these out. And yes, the Maxijet mod gives it a much broader flow pattern.

    What not to do to your sump

    What not to do to your sump

    Well actually at this point I'm flip flopping back and forth on that one. I took a stroll through lowes and HD before work today and I'm not seeing one at either that will fit. Does anyone know someplace that sells these things or something equivilent?
