    New To Clamming

    the power heads are situated different. there might be decent flow in the tank but closer to the sand bed the less flow there is. i have both renas pointed cross way to the front of the glass from each back corner and the power head on the left is pointed up. the one on the right is pointed...

    New To Clamming

    I just purchased my first clam the other day. I'm pretty sure it's healthy. I heard from someone that if I wave my hand over the light it, the faster it closes the healthier it is and this one closed all the way pretty quickly. Although I was wondering how long it takes for the clam to be...

    2 yasha gobies or pulsing xenia

    Alright so I have a couple questions. 1. I have a candy cane pistol shirmp with a yasha goby and I am a goby fan so I researched about them a little and decided to get another. When I put him/her in(I'm not sure how to sex them) they got all split up and I finally got them in the same hole. The...

    New to the SPS

    I've just recently purchased my first metal halide fixture for a 75 gallon reef aquarium. I have a bunch of soft corals like xenia and many zoanthids. I just got into all the hard corals and stuff so I'm still learning. So far I have a little frag of milipora that's doing good I guess? I'm not...

    Halide Bulbs

    So I just bought a halide fixture with 2x250watt halides. It comes with 15000k bulbs. I'm new at this halide thing so what I really want to know is the colors of all the bulbs. I like the blue color to the tank but I know that the more yellow the more growth, or something like that. I'm just a...

    Disappearing Fish!

    So I've had my tank set up for close to a year now. Well I had a 40 breeder then upgraded to a 75 but with all perfect water and the same rock. I haven't really been buying a lot of fish because I'm working on other things right now. But anyway I've had this one clown for probably 5 months now...

    Schooling Fish

    I was thinking about getting some bangai cardinals but I wasn't sure if they schooled or not.

    Schooling Fish

    Alright so I definately like the schooling fish catagory. I have a 75 with two colomns of rock, sort of like two islands, so there is plenty of room in there. I thought about getting 4 green chromis to school in my tank but I know they get like 3 inches and I also heard that they can kill off...

    Aquascaping

    i tried the wall look. i dont think it looks really all that good in my tank at least the wall that i tried. i also dont really have much big pieces of rock so its hard to do a wall effect. i like showing a lot of sand because i have pistol shrimp and goby partner. ill just have to work with it...

    Aquascaping

    yeah i like the "open" look. that bonsai tree in the cube of dailydriven's link looks reallly cool and i kind of want to do something like that but its hard to incorperate that look with a longer tank such as mine
