    Need help putting togeather a fuge...

    Since its just a fuge and no skimmers or anything, you probably can get away without using baffles to reduce the bubbles. If the overflow does not drop water very far, there isn't going to be much in the way of bubbles created. You can simply hook up a hose to a power head and pump water into...

    frozen foods

    I feed one of my brains somewhat frozen formula 1. He goes crazy for it so I assume that its fine... I just try to thaw it as much as I can in a minute or so. If its thawed too much then it starts to break up a bit before the brain finishes eating.

    Meeting this weekend.

    Will someone have a copper, phosphate, and possibly a strontium test that I could "borrow" on a water sample? I don't want to spend a load of cash, especially since I threw away $40+ worth of test kits from the blue sierra sale last week... ACK!

    Nooooooooo

    Feeding all of the polyps on this guy must take about a year... You should ask jazznreef how he got this coral so large. Did he buy it or grow it from a frag? This sucker is heavy too. I moved it a little bit last night and thought it was stuck. Just ended up being that I didnt think it was...

    Two Questions or maybe more

    Just from my newbie experience I've heard rumors that Blue Sierra sometimes has Ick problems... (Its not first or second hand experience, so take it for what its worth). I bought a firefish and perc from them and they are fine. They even ate while acclimating in their bags....

    Umbrella/Toadstool leather

    I have an umbrella/toadstool leather that opened up last week after I got it, then wouldnt open for two days. I decided that too much stuff was landing on him and he needed more flow so I moved him three days ago. He doesnt look great... Any ideas how I can get him recovering? He's whithered...

    Nooooooooo

    I am coral sitting a ginormous pagoda cup coral that belongs to Bc_slc (Matt). Check out the pic... I'm going to cry once he gets up his 140gal tank. I realized that this guy chows down on some direct feeding of brine shrimp. Any other types of food that I should give him while I'm taking...

    Water top off

    Something that fits over my sump would be perfect. Does anyone sell premade nurse style top offs? I guess I should google for it...

    Water top off

    What kind of glue would work best? Also, does anyone have any suggestions for a reservoir that I can drill so I dont have to siphon? Just get a tupperware tub and some 1/4" tube?

    Water top off

    I am lazy and don't want to do daily top offs. I dont have a lot of space, so I'm looking for easy solutions. I was thinking of getting a float valve to stop the water from falling into the sump once it reaches a certain point. What can I use to attach this float in my sump? I don't want to...

    Hydnophora rigida

    I dont know if they like bright lighting. I stuck mine (Im not sure what species of Hydnophora, but its bright green) at the top of my tank and the tips started to bleach out. I thought that I had to put it so high since I only have 400 watts of PC... Was this from too much light of maybe...

    Black growth around polyps

    I have some type of black growth around some of my zoo polyps. They still open fine, but its just worrisome that something like this is around my zoos! Does anyone know what this is? Is it harmful?

    Clownfish help

    Well, I let them duke it out a bit. They seem to have split the tank. The new one is slightly bigger and kicked the old perc out of his favorite sleeping place. The old one decided to swim up and down the corner of my tank right when I turned my lights off before the fight, kind of weird...
