    Poll: What is the longest time frame you have had a single fish live for?

    I had a sixline for a year and half. Went on vacation and left my roommate in charge, bad idea she didn't top off or feed for a week(she said she did, I'm calling BS though, the tank was 1/3 empty). Not a good combo for a 10 gallon nano. The fish made the jump in hopes of finding a better...

    30 gallon AIO (DIY)

    good to know. I've come to the conclusion that changing salt shouldn't have that much of an effect, I was over thinking the scenario. I'm thinking that changing salts will only vary my params and what I will need to dose/how much I will need to.

    Best reef salt mix?

    following along on this. Just switched over to Brightwell and am wondering about others thoughts on the salt. It's only been about three weeks so I can't give it a positive or negative review.

    30 gallon AIO (DIY)

    i'm running things over right now, has any body had any negative effects from switching salts. I have recently switched to Brightwell NeoMarine from AquaVitro Salinity. I have noticed a bad sulfur smell when mixing the salt, is this normal? Anybody have any experience with this salt?

    I would cut the lights down to about 8 hours a day. Feeding every other day is fine. How much do you feed when you do feed? Your tank will be fine continue with water changes and keep the tank stable and the diatoms will go with time.

    My Harlequinn shrimp had 100's of babies, now what

    best of luck, it would be pretty sweet if you can raise them. You should get some pics of the process if you continue with it.

    Using Carbon in a Mesh Bag, Helpful?

    i'm currently running something pretty similar to that krish, I have it in my skimmer on the return side (CPR Bak-Pak). I have run carbon for a few years, I can't remember what things looked/acted like before I started using it. That was also before I had really gotten into reefing so I wasn't...

    Using Carbon in a Mesh Bag, Helpful?

    The API stuff that comes in something that looks like a milk carton. Didn't really think it was that different from brand to brand, but then again I never really researched why I was putting it n my tank besides it helped with water quality. I've been doing it for probably two years and today...

    Using Carbon in a Mesh Bag, Helpful?

    I'm currently using carbon, I have it in a mesh bag that I place in one of my rear chambers or in my skimmer (HOB, in the return chamber). Is this helpful or a waste of time. I have been reading that the best way to use carbon is with a reactor. By putting it in a mesh bag am I pulling...
