    Advice Please!!

    What are you feeding the rotifers? You should be able to see them if you look very closely/under a magnifying glass. The best way to know they're doing alright is that the green tint goes away after feeding them. Here is a very good link with a lot of info...

    Clow fish fry

    Oh nice! I have a pair of those laying, I haven't raised any yet though. Are you going to try to raise them?

    Neptune Apex

    I just looked online the Apex does have a conductivity probe you can attach for salinity, although I've never had much luck with the accuracy on any salinity measurement as they need calibration fairly often. I hadn't even looked at the RKE, does anyone have that?

    Neptune Apex

    I was looking at controllers for a new location... I have a ~2 year old aquatronica system now which works really well, but I was wondering if anyone has used the Neptune Systems Apex controller yet. All input would be appreciated! -Josh

    Seattle/Eastside Fish Stores

    I really like Blue Sierra, they always have everything you need, a really huge selection of equipment and also tons of fish and corals. The best part, if you have freshwater, they've got that too. :)

    aquarium background

    I bought big sheets of black/dark gray card stock from QFC and taped them to the back of my tank. It seems to work pretty good. :)

    Fireworm- 10" Yea or Nea

    It looks like a normal bristle worm, not a fire worm. Bristle worm: Those tend not to hurt SPS, they feed on detritus and sediment in the tank. -Josh

    need HELP ASAP

    You could use some ratcheting plastic clamps like you buy from home depot to hold boards together. Just clamp them to the edge of the tank and put the hose in the center. Something like this maybe...

    Aptasia or ..??..

    I personally disagree on not using mechanical methods. If an aiptasia was able to withstand the high temperatures and high pH presented with the boiling kalkwasser I would be surprised. Also, what happens once the nudibranchs eat their last anemone...? Sadly they die. I really don't think it's...

    Aptasia or ..??..

    Easiest way to kill aiptasia for me is to: 1. Boil some hot water (in a kettle or something) 2. Take a small cup, add a fair amount of kalkwasser (CaOH) to it. 3. Pour the boiling water into the cup with about 1 part (per volume) of water to kalkwasser. (so half and half kalkwasser powder and...

    Do you think my Yellow Tang is too big for my tank?

    Honestly, a yellow tang in the wild is a fish that spends its entire day grazing across the ocean... I'd say a 75g minimum. As for the sailfin and the yellow in a 40 breeder... Why? what are you going to do as those fish grow older? Or do you not plan on having them live that long?

    I want to learn more about Nudibraches.

    That type, iirc, is more the type that goes for xenia/softies. The zoa eating ones tend to be much smaller. :) -Josh
