Not sure where this fits but heres my cautionary story. Had my 35 gallon hex running very good for well over a year. Went to bed one night, woke up the next morning and my fish died. One sole survivor was a goby. Didnt add anything to the tank, kept up with the cleanings. Very odd. My clowns...

I had some hitchhikers in my tank...nameing bristle worms. I saw what appears to be a fire worm in my tank yesterday. Rather big. He came out of his rock and spewed white stuff in the tank before retreating. Im thinking he is trying reproduce. Any ideas otherwise? BTW....I have a coral shrimp to...

I may have f@cked up. My work tank has been doing awesome. 7 corals, numerous fish, and plenty of inverts. My latest coral added was a green star polyp. After two weeks it never bloomed (the only coral not to do so). My LFS by work suggested that my phosphates were too high and sold me a liquid...

I started my venture into Salt in April with help from this forum. Since then Id set up two successful tanks (one at home and one at work). Both look beautiful. My only casualties were a cardinal in the work tank and a damsel in my home tank (anemone got him). In my home tank I have one anemone...

So I added a damsel and he seems all well and good. Im planning on adding clowns (2) next week if my readings dont go crazy. Also...having a temp issue. I was keeping it at 78 but it jumped to 80-81 for some reason...I think my wife kept the lights on too long while I was working (she said "12...

So sometime next week I plan on adding my 1st fish after the cycle (only had some snails and crabs so far) to my 35 gal hex...with that I know i will need to do a water change. I have purchased two orange buckets from home depot and was planning on removing 3-4 gallons. The nite before I was...
