    Coral Bonanza Sale!

    Hi guys! King of Frogspawn here :) Time to get rid of MOST of them as I just have no room any more. I'm more than likely going to fish only as well, since a lot of the fish I would like to keep are not reef safe. Take a look and express any interest. Plenty to go around! $5/head...

    Low alkalinity/won't rise

    Hey gang, I've been using an algae scrubber for quite some time now with fantastic results. Corals look great, fish are fat and happy, and my cyano is gone. We've discovered that algae scrubbers suck up alkalinity! So, I am here with this problem. My alkalinity tests at 4.8dkh. I've...

    Spiney Corralline algae?

    Hi all, If no one can ID this with a description then I'll snap a pic but for now here goes... This grows to the size of a baseball in about 2 weeks. It is very thin, delicate, spiney and branch-like, purple in color, and it grows in my overflow ONLY. When I remove it, it comes out in...

    My Algae Scrubber Build

    Hey guys, I've attempted to do this and this is my initial plans. If this looks like it is going to work on the opinions of others that have already done this, then I'm going to make a final system. Is the light shining through the acrylic ok? I have a pump feeding the PVC piping just...

    Whelk ID?

    Added a slew of CUC to my tank, and 3 of these came from the wood works and started crawling all over my snails. I'm guessing that they are opportunistic feeders, on snails. Are they Cantharid Whelks? They all looked exactly the same. Please advise if I should remove. Thanks!

    Kicked out?!

    I have had two clown fish hosting the same bubble tip anemone at the same time for almost a year. Just recently, the male clown no longer goes in, let alone near, the anemone. In fact, he stays on the complete opposite side of the tank now while the female remains in the anemone. This has...

    Fts ftw!!!

    :^: I finally got around to taking some pics, albeit with my iPhone. I just wanted to give everyone a heads up before they start yelling at me for keeping a Yellow Tang :) It's been here for 9 months, originally just to hold for a friend, but now has become mine. He's a little guy but I will be...

    4-bulb combo recs?

    Hello everyone, I've got the 36" Nova Extreme's over my 30-gallon tank. They haven't been changed in about 1 1/2 years :shock: My tank recently broke out with a purple hair algae problem which I suspect is from the weakened light output. Tests show that all other basics are under control. Can...

    One year strong :)

    Hey guys and gals! It's been a little over a year now and my tank has matured very nicely. Corals are growing big and bright and I have most of the same fish still, which is always a good sign :) I have a couple questions. I have just added a bubble tip anemone and after a few days my...

    Rant

    Here's the scoop: My girlfriend has a friend that just set up a 125 gallon tank less than one week ago. It contains live sand, maybe 75 pounds of live rock, lots of air stones for oxygenation/decor, and a sunken ship/fake plant decor. Now, to be honest, this tank looks amazing. But, there were...

    Constant Nitrate Problem

    Before anyone tells me that this project is just simply not going to work, I would like to exhaust all options and paths to success. With that said, I started a 6 gallon fish-only tank a little more than a month ago. In the display I have 6 lbs. live rock, sand, powerhead, and a HOB filter...

    Zoanthids closed up

    Well, for about three to four days now my Zoas have either been completely closed or look unhappily open/ half-open. Upon further inspection, a feather duster seems to be growing in the middle of the colony. Could this be keeping them from fully opening? And how do I handle the feather duster...
