So I got this mini-maxi a week or 2 ago now, but the crazy thing will not come out of the large measuring cup I acclimated it in. Tried turning it upside down for days, nothing. No flow, high flow, low light, everything I can think of to get it to let go and move out with no success. This big...

I just received my Koralia Nano 425 gph powerhead, but I can't seem to find a place where there is a place to run or put the cord so that the lid doesn't have to be ajar... That would let more water evaporate, and contaminants in like cat hair, litter dust, and most of all, these obnoxious asian...

I found this cucumber at my only LFS with very limited stock. He said it was a detritus eater, but it sits at the top of the rock work and extends little feathery things occasionally. Which makes me think it's a filter feeder. Can anyone verify for sure please? I haven't had much luck except...

Hey everyone, a long time ago in a galaxy far far away... I used to sit on this forum all night long and most of the day... Well I just moved into a nice house in the suburbs by myself, picked up a 150 drilled AGA and stand for a good price along the way of getting the house... Got a place that...

I made the hour and a half or so trip today up to Rheinlander to get some supplies for the tank and to check out the fish/frag selection. They didn't have much for fish, or frags, but I found a few I really liked and could slightly afford... The green one is sweet as hell, the green really pops...

My display tank is overflowing... Once again it's the stupid CPR overflow box having issues with moving enough water down to the sump, and even the throttled back return pump (700 gph or so, 4 feet below the return head) and a 600 gph overflow box. The aqua lifter pump no longer has suction in...

I want to test the postability of my pictures from this free high resolution upload site... Testing Testing... 1,2,3.. Too huge. Where can i get my pics in like 1200x800 roughly? between 8*6 and huge?

Just wanted to say "HI" to everyone on the livingreefs forums! I'm sure a lot of people might remember me from a year or so ago on here, every day, all day... Then I just disappeared, came back one day, said I wanted to get back on the site more, vanished for a long time... Here I am. I've been...

After a long break I'm finally back. I need some ideas about what to do with my saltwater hobby. I'm off to college, moved in today. Back home until Sunday, but the landlord will not allow me to have a fish tank over 50 gallons, which I currently have. I honestly don't think its worth all...

Sorry I've been gone for so long, it's been a very hectic last few months. Graduating with my 2 year degree, getting ready to move away from my home town, finals, papers, projects, ah! But to the point. My friend that started a 75g saltwater mixed some reef mostly fish a little bit after I...

I was in Minneapolis a few days ago, didnt make it to any fish stores due to bad weather we wanted to leave early, ended up making it half hour and having to stop due to visibility issues. I didn't have my camera along, but I had my iPhone, havent transfered any pics from it to my computer yet...

I'm heading to Minneapolis tomorrow with my girlfriend and another friend to do some shopping downtown. I googled fish stores in the Minneapolis area and have a huge list and was wondering if anyone could help me narrow it down? I don't recall if we have any members in the area, but if we do...

I was in at the LFS the other day and he had some cool looking anemones for sale and I kinda feel like I want one now... Just wanna get some opinion on it first at least. He has a really nice looking sebae that is pure white with bright purple tips on it, or a long tentacle or something looked...

I'm too excited, I must talk about it with someone! I was up there the other day and asked about it a little and got a run down. They get rid of all the dog food and stuff in the store and line the walls with tanks and fill them with overstock stuff (I think corals and fish), they have a pole...

I thought I saw a picture posted somewhere a little while back where someone put an air pump on their super skimmer to force air into it instead of it just using the water pressure to draw it in. I searched but cant find anything relating to that. I tried a free pump my friend gave me, but it...

Today me and a friend drove down to Madison to the Madison area reef societies frag swap. Man they had a pretty good turn out, I think by the raffle tickets around 160 people attended, as well as a good deal of people with frags for sale or trade. I picked up a few cool things, the prices were...

Just thought I'd post some stuff, havent been on here much lately. I ended up wanting to get a decent home for my mantis and decided on the Nano Cube 12g (Glass) After research I found out that the species of mantis that I have wont break glass. The Pseudosquilla ciliata is a spearer and is...

Today I wake up at 11:30 to my friend asking If I want to go to fosters and smith a day early, uh, So i called into work and said I was going out of town, find someone to work, and we headed off. When we get there they have a nice sale going on, "Happy holidays, All frags 19.99 unless otherwise...

Well as you all know my tank is maxed out on fish with my blue tang until I get a 125 this summer. I really like my scarlet skunk cleaner shrimp, hes fun to feed by hand and watch, hes got tons of personality for a shrimp! I remember someone saying that critters like shrimp and crabs dont count...
