    Lighting - T6 Ultimate Reef

    Here it is http://www.petsolutions.com/default.aspx?ItemId=74000114&EID=SZ74000117&SID=SHZIL I have two of them. The weird thing is that no matter what website I find them on they all read the same. They take the exact wording from the box and paste it on their website.

    Sorry to hear that. We will keep our fingers crossed.

    Lighting - T6 Ultimate Reef

    Does anyone have experience or information on a T6? They claim to be the all in one. I am concerned that this is not the case. If I need more lighting then I would like to get it earlier rather than later. Thanks for your help!

    Ammonia Question

    Thanks NaH20! I have not purchased a new test kit yet but I did find a Seachem Ammonia Alert product. It has a suction cup and you stick it on the glass inside the aquarium. It warns you as the ammonia level goes up. It has read "safe" since Monday and everyone in the tank seems fine and...

    Ammonia Question

    The tank in question is a 20 gallon hex. My Nitrite was .1. Nitrate was a color not even on the chart provided. 6 fish. All small damsels pretty much. One fairy wrasse. The tank is under heavy filtration. Always has been. I am going to forget the live rock for now. I still get a .25 ppm...

    Sick tang?

    Good to hear! The cleaner shrimp should help. You may want to change the UV bulb too. Makes sure the Tang is eating. As long as the Tang maintains its strength it can fight off the ich. When the ich matures and releases into the water the UV light should finish them off.

    Ammonia Question

    The tank is small so I can account for each fish. It may be the kit. I changed the lighting I was using to the Ultimate Reef bulb made by Quantum Aquatics and the anenome seems much better. I'll purchase a new test kit today and see if the reading is wrong. I also turkey blasted the tank...

    Ammonia Question

    I do push the boundries of the number of fish. The tank is backed by heavy filtration. I have two fluvals (404 and 104), Seastorm Bio filter and a protein skimmer. It may be the number of fish. I have read on the internet that less than 1ppm is an exceptable range of ammonia. Is this true...

    Sick tang?

    They are making it tough for him to breathe. You may want to try a quick fresh water dip. BE CAREFUL! Make sure the PH level and Temp are the same as your marine aquarium and no chlorine. Leave him in the freshwater for 5 mins. That will clear the ich off. If there is a pet store open near...

    Sick tang?

    That sounds like ich. You may want to try cleaner shrimp first. They do a great job removing the ich. Your Tang will enjoy a grooming session. I recommend getting a UV light added to your system. I never have a problem with parasites. They can be expensive but worth every penny...

    Ammonia Question

    Hi, I have been in the hobby for over 10 years. I currently have a mysterious problem with ammonia. I have a .25 ppm reading in my tank no matter what I do. I have recently added an external filter of bio materials only to help get it down and it does not budge. I have had this reading for...
