is melamine a good panel to put on fish tank stands?

great, how big of a water change would you recommend every time? 10%? Also, how long should I wait between each water change?

I have corals, invertebrates and a cleaner shrimp in the DT, so I do not want to start another cycle. Is there any way to remove the sand without starting another cycle? Wouldn't the live rock be plenty to keep the tank from going through a cycle?

hey everybody, long time no post! I am going to be rescaping my tank with rods and making it a really great aquascape. In doing so I want to remove all the rocks and I want to siphon out all the sand, put my new aquascaped rock back in place and then put the rinsed out sand back around the...

hi, yes mine is also 30 inches wide, it's the marineland 56 column tank. I actually have 4 T5's and all my corals have done great. I have a few sps at the top, a bunch of lps and a bunch of zoos. I have yet to lose any coral except a leather coral (emerald crabs kept clawing and walking on it...

I looked in the sump but didn't see him, he was also not in the filter sock. It does seem like the fairy wrasse is a bit timid around the angel. He would flair his fins and the flame would just swim over by him, then the wrasse would swim away. I never observed any nipping or anything and the...

I have seen my jawfish several times tonight. He is building a burrow inside the rockwork and is hard to see. He has swam out for about 1 second a couple of times so I got a glimpse of him. Is there anyway I can get him to build his burrow in front of the rocks so he is easier to see? I have...

looks like a good stock list.

Just got a flame angelfish and a yellowhead jawfish. The flame angelfish is very active, moving inside and out of the rocks and all over the tank. The jawfish swam straight into the rockwork and I haven't seen him at all, even when I fed the fish. How long to you think it will take until I see...

I'm sorry for your loss, I have also been having troubles with my tank lately (fish dying) so I understand.
