Good to know. I'm looking at the Hydor Koralia Nano 240, is that the one you were looking at originally? Seems like a solid pump

I'm looking to buy one new pump for my 28 gal nanocube. Any suggestions?? If it's on Amazon, even better. Also if you've got any tips on how to make this a smooth process...that would be appreciated too! Thanks :)

I put a camel shrimp in my tank yesterday. Saw my clownfish alive and well today, but when I got home he was NOWHERE to be found. Do camel shrimp typically attack fish?? Should I take him out??

Essentially we're making something very much like this Innovative Marine But it will go inside my current hood that came with the nanocube, have 150 watts instead of 95. He builds robots and cars and stuff like that so he said it's relatively simple and buying one for upwards of $400 is...

LEDs. I haven't even heard of acclimating the corals to the light but that makes a lot of sense. how would you go about doing that???

I'm having an engineer friend of mine make me a new hood for my 28g jbj nanocube. Is there such a thing as having TOO strong of lights? We're looking at about 150 watts total. Let me know what you think! :)

He's been fine for the probably ten months I've had him, it could be that he doesn't have enough to eat now that the fish are gone. I'll try target feeding some mysis... thank you!

I just looked at my sand sifting star and he's missing all of his little bristles and it looks like two chucks of him have been bitten out. I have NOTHING in the tank except for him, snails, a tiny hermit crab... everything died about a month or two ago in a heat wave. What's going on...

Dannng d2, that's a big one. Any idea how fast these things grow? I think I might have one in my tank. All my fish except one clown have disappeared. I found the newest clown on the bottom of the tank yesterday by a rock. He looked totally fine other than a hole right through his chest....

Thanks guys! I'll put the rock back in. If he's dead, whatever....there might be more. And those can stay. :P

It won't wrap around or climb on to a sleeping seahorse?

We have those here in Southern California! They're fun little guys to try to catch at the beach. They scurry through the sand in your hands and tickle your palms. Lots of memories seeing how many we could "catch" when I was little. But we always set them free at the end of the afternoon. :)

I found a bristleworm (tiny in width, but I believe he's probably about a foot long) in my FOWLR tank. I saw him creeping out when I put some mysis in the tank, so I grabbed the rock he was in and put it in a bucket of freshwater. Will this kill him? The tank will be for a pair of H...

I'm so down for this contest. It's a tiny little tank, can't be thaaaat hard to make it pretty.... :)

Welllll I feel sheepish. I thought it only came in purple. Oops.
