    Ideal Reef water temperature?

    I have let my tank move up and down throughout the day and have never had an issue with my fish or corals. I think everyone will agree 78 is cold for a real reef.

    Can anyone in the Spokane area get him a better skimmer? The remora pro won't help the diatom algae issue.

    Losing my snails

    Here is why I am bamboozled. I have swapped done two 30% water changes with deltec H2O salt. Different supplier, some of the snail I have had for several years in my other tank. I have two tanks a 150 and a 14 Biocube. The Biocube has much of the same water from the 150 as the snail problem. But...

    Losing my snails

    Yeah not the problem they were acclimated over a 2 hour period. And copper is zero, salinty is 2.025. Elos tests by Barrier Reef. I was wondering if anyone had the situation before. If you haven't don't worry its not the acclimation or the water parameters. Maybe voltage but I have a ground...

    Making Wild Fish Illegal

    Newbie mistakes...need guidance!

    Keep going. Try to find other people around you that have tanks, they will be your best resources. But if you want basic advice the first thing I would get is a protein skimmer. For a 55 you want a pretty big one. This skimmer is the cheapest one I would get...
