    Pre-order the new illustrated Book of Coral Propagation!

    Anthony I was curious if there was anyway I could change where the book was being shipped to if it is not too late. I am not sure what address I originally put, but because of school I have moved twice since I placed my order. Jon

    Zoanthids in a 30g with X lighting?

    Will zoanthids lose color that they can not regain under low light if left there for an extended period of time or can they usually regain any color lose?

    Raising clams to increase their value with larger sizes

    I just recently upgraded my lighting and when I was telling my brother about all the different animals I could not keep that I could not keep before. I told him about the clams and he said that would be awesome. But the thing is I am on a limited budget currently and I'm trying to only...

    Sorry. The website provider I was working with has been updating their server and that may have been why you were unable to see them earlier. It's anoying to post pictures on this page because I can not use HTML. Let me know if the pics still don't work.

    Zoanthids in a 30g with X lighting?

    Well when I move into my new place I'll have a tank set up just for zoanthids. For time being I'm going to set up the 30g as a mixed reef. Oh and I also came across some T5s from a hobbiest who was moving... I think that 3 of them should be bright enough. ;-) (oh happy day)

    Sick French Anglefish

    Yeah that was my only concern and the reason I asked. That is I didn't know if 48 hours or less was going to help shock the ich. You give a very good solid answer that makes a lot of sense. I like knowing why I am doing something and not just being told to do something. The fish had even...

    Thanks again. Frenchy not only looked better today, but he ate. These fish are notorious for eating, it is what they do, and this individual is no exception. Yesterday he was hardly eating anything, but today he was eating well like he typically does. The water quality however was not...

    Lee in your article on hypo you say. "Don't add/use power heads or strong circulating pumps. " Why is it you say this? If I remove the power head that is the tank the water goes stagnant. Do you mean just not to over do it? The only form of filtration will be an hob aquaclear with a bit of...

    BTW, Ed is that your fish in your icon? I love them and was hoping to add one when I set up a larger tank for the two that are currently sick.

    Thanks Ed. I am on my way over now. Going to do a water change from the reef system today, but will be the last time I do a water change from there. The rest will be from fresh RO water that has been heated, aerated, and brought to the same water parameters that the tank is currently in. I...

    Sick French Anglefish

    Ok, I hadn't read all of what was posted, it was 3am last night and I'm sick. I said I would finish my research this morning. I never said that increasing or improving circulation or UV would solve the problem. I plan on adding things to help the water quality as currently there is nothing in...

    Ok, couldn't sleep. I was talking with the president of my reef club who has been telling me that my bio filtration is messed up and if I just fix that then I should be ok. He always brings sick fish home to his old healthy tank and they get better. I'm going to add 2-3 aqualcears to the back...

    Sick French Anglefish

    One of the people who attends the local reef club went through ich not to long ago and was using a UV sterilzer in addition to hypo. Would a UV sterilzer help in addition to the hypo? Tomorrow morning I am going to test everything on the tank and then clean the side glass from aglae, do a...

    Sick French Anglefish

    Thank you both, Le and Ed. I will decide tomorrow morning which route I am going to take. Unfortunately I don't have a pH probe(like a pin point) and my bank account, as always, is empty. I have two-three different pH test kits that never agree with each other and I stopped using them a...

    The tank it is currently in is 55g bare bottom and the only other inhabitant is the purple tang.(besides two snails which I can deal with) I was thinking hyposalinity as I would really not like to ruin the tank with a copper treatment, but you do have a good point about it being quicker. I own...

    Please help me find out what is wrong with my fish. I am between homes and moved it into my grandparents house with a new tank mate, a purple tang. My grandparents weren't sure if it was ill or not till this morning. When they called me I returned home asap. I think it may be marine velvet...
