    Something growing in my zoas!

    Seemed to be soft, but it was so small I didn't really notice. No shell that I could tell.

    Something growing in my zoas!

    Help! I came home today and noticed a bunch of things growing on one of my zoa colonies. They almost look like clear little pineapples :confused: I rushed to the computer to look up zoa spiders but luckily it doesn't look like them. I scraped one off with my fingernail, it popped right off...

    Orchid dottyback

    Hey everybody, Just wanted an opinion on orchid dottybacks. I have a 10 gallon, and I was curious if I could put one in there. It's a softie tank with 1 Randall's goby and that's it. They would be the only 2 fish in there. Liveaquaria lists them as needing 30 gallons, but I've heard that's...

    Fire shrimp

    Hey guys, just curious if anybody has experience with fire shrimp in a reef. Everything I've read says they're fine but i want to double check to see if there are any horror stories. He'd be in a 10 gallon reef. No other shrimp/crabs. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

    GPH for my reef

    Hey guys, I have a question on GPH. I have a fairly new 10 gallon reef. So far my only inhabitants are 2 snails, and one frogspawn, yellow leather, and bam bam zoanthid. Planning on it being a mostly zoanthid tank with a few others here and there. I'm running an aqueon quietflow 10 filled with...

    Why do my Zoo’s have really long tentacles/Skirts?

    I have nothing to add (sorry) but as someone who has just started a mostly zoa tank, this discussion is a great read. Thanks guys!

    LED options.

    If I were to upgrade, it would be a long ways down the road. I can't have anything bigger than a 10 where i live right now and I'm in the middle of a 90 gallon build for when i get a better place. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

    LED options.

    I definitely like the price on that bulb. Does anybody have any experience running it? I would like to see pictures of it in action. Also, anybody have experience with aquaticlife's LED fixtures? I was in barrier reef and that's what they suggested. Little more expensive than the Kessil, but...

    LED options.

    Hey guys, i just wantsd some opinions on what kind of LEDs for my tank. It's a 10 gallon. Thinking I'll probably do mainly zoas but might branch out to some other stuff. I was at OBD earlier today and took a look at the Kessil 150 ocean blue. I liked it but i wish i could control the color on it...

    New tank problems

    It happens. Tested the water today. Definitely cycling again as I'm in the nitrite spike. Hopefully it will be smooth sailing from here on. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

    New tank problems

    Fed him Mysis shrimp Tuesday and Wednesday, he ate a very small amount on Tuesday but refused last night. Tried feeding him mysis and flake today and he refused both. Salinity is 1.024, PH is still at 7.8, Nitrate and nitrite are 0, and the ammonia is .5. I have a bucket of salt mixing right now...

    New tank problems

    Hey guys. So, I set up a new tank on Monday. 10 gallon, brand new tank, got it free from a friend's mom who I bought another tank from. Anyway, according to her, she's had the tank set up for about 2 1/2 months now. She cycled it with LR and a piece of shrimp. Never ended up adding anything...

    Let's Build a store....

    Based on what you're describing, I'm probably never going to leave. Do you think you could get a futon in there so i can just stay the night? You know, as your 'security guard' or something? Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

    Judge my plumbing!

    So basically, once it splits off, one pipe going to the fuge and one going to the skimmer, just put a gate valve on the one going to the fuge and then tune it however I want? Hmm, I actually hadn't really thought of that, thanks for pointing it out. The way I have it all divided up right...

    Judge my plumbing!

    Thanks for the feedback guys. So, let's ignore the complexity of it for a minute, that's all subject to change, and we can come back to it later. I still was curious about the questions i just quoted above pertaining to the return line. Thanks again guys. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

    The Great Barrier Reef, is losing its "greatness".

    That's sad. It's probably my number 1 place in the world that i want to visit. Hope it's still there by the time i get to it. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

    Judge my plumbing!

    I have them separated so that i can have a bigger fuge. This way i can have the fuge wall higher than the baffles separating my skimmer and return. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

    Judge my plumbing!

    Alright, so I sketched a quick plan on my plumbing for my 90 gallon. It's not the most elegant illustration ever, but hey, it's past 2 am, this is as good as it's going to get right now. It's a herbie drain. I have a couple questions. - First, wasn't really sure what to do with the backup...
