    911 corals need to be rescued! Please help!

    After months of cycling (It seems like forever) my tank is ready to hold life again! Unfortunately I lost everything. I had moved the corals that were still alive to a smaller tank and they were doing great. About three days later something happened with the heater and everything was cooked. It...

    911 corals need to be rescued! Please help!

    So the temp tank is all set up and what is alive is in there. I was shocked to find my goby and pistol still alive! A pay off me is wondering if this could be an issue with the lights. I have LEDs and they have been flickering for a couple weeks. Maybe the light power was not strong enough? I...

    911 corals need to be rescued! Please help!

    Yes I have used a lot of prime in the past week! In fact I just used the last bit to set up a temp tank.

    911 corals need to be rescued! Please help!

    Thank you everyone. It is awesome that you are all willing to help me out! I think I like the idea of setting up a smaller tank. I wish I had done that a week ago, maybe more would have survived. Hopefully setting up a smaller tank will work. I guess I am not ready to give up yet!

    911 corals need to be rescued! Please help!

    I posted this in classified but thought I would post it here too. I am at wits end and very sad and upset about this but my tank has crashed and I can't seem to get it back into a cycle. About a week ago I did a 5 gal water change in my 30gal biocube and my tank has since crashed. I think the...

    911 Corals need to be saved! Please help

    I am at wtis end and very sad and upset about this but my tank has crashed and I can't seem to get it back into a cycle. About a week ago I did a 5 gal water change in my 30gal biocube and my tank has since crashed. I think the salt may have been old as that is the only thing that I can think of...

    Whats going on with my coral?

    I am amazed at how much my tank has grown, including this beautiful SPS. I have a couple problems though. 1st: What is it???? Please help! I would like to frag eventually and would like to know what it is called! 2nd: A couple of week ago I noticed a bubble forming on part of the coral. While...

    Kassie's Biocube 29!

    I only have the small back area of the biocube, no sump that would fit a bottle of water. I put a small container in the freezer with water. Hopefully that will help, I don't have much space in the first chamber with the skimmer in it.

    Kassie's Biocube 29!

    @Truziel Thanks! I love the black sand. I was not home yesterday so I couldn't put fans up and close curtains. I currently have the glass covered on the tank to prevent light from windows coming in and a small fan sitting on top of the tank blowing into the back. It's at 80 degrees so hopefully...

    Kassie's Biocube 29!

    I have finally got around to loading some pics on to my computer. I got the lighting to 100% but my corals seem to be happier with the blue LED at 100% and the white slightly lower. My tank got to a horrifying 88 degrees yesterday. I am taking better precautions today to keep it cool. This is...

    Huge ammonia spike! Please Help!!!!

    Thanks for the advice. I ordered a new testing kit and everything looks good. I am still doing tests though once a week. If things start to go south I will do a small water change.

    Kassie's Biocube 29!

    Thanks! I love the black sand too. My first tank was bare bottem but I always wanted to try the black sand. I am now on the lookout for an bbt anemone but I want one that is different and really cool looking. I am a little concerned that it may be too early to add one though so I will probably...

    Kassie's Biocube 29!

    I can't wait to see it at 100% either! When I was looking for my new tank I contemplated doing an open top with a raised light fixture. The main reason I didn't is because my watchman is a jumper. I know I could sell him, but he was one of my first fish and has been through a lot...I am kinda...

    Kassie's Biocube 29!

    About two years ago my 65 gal tank crashed (don't buy halides in eBay from Hong Kong!). My pistol shrimp and watchmen goby were the only ones to survive. I kept them in a simple 5 gal tank until I got my biocube. Unfortunately the pistol died the day I was going to put it into the cube, I'm not...

    Huge ammonia spike! Please Help!!!!

    I took my water to Reef Keepers. He did not have an ammonia test but based on the questions he asked me he is very sure that I have no ammonia. I will still be purchasing a new test kit though!

    Huge ammonia spike! Please Help!!!!

    Hi everyone! So I am not new to reef keeping but I am new to cycling a tank. My first tank I got as a well-established tank and I kept all the water and rock. Unfortunately it crashed after I put lights in that I thought were a great deal. The only survivors were my watchman goby and his buddy...
