    Reusing LR covered in algae from the ugly tank?

    Thanks to everyone who helped my with my LR in a bucket dillema, and that kind of led into this current dillema: The LR from the ghetto tank that's covered in green algae: A few have told me that if I just scrub it to death that I can put it back in the tank. My bf is a little leary of...

    Need an ID... some kind of anemone???

    I'm not sure if this is the right spot for this thread (if it's not, let me apologize ahead of time). While I'm working on the ghetto tank, I bought a new friend for my tank. I have another question: I bought this from my favorite LFS guy today. It's about 2 1/2 - 3" across. He's very...

    Reusing live rock that's been in a bucket of water for a week?

    Hi again! I have a question about reusing some LR that was taken of out my other tank right before Christmas. It's been sitting in a bucket since, with tank water, no heater or powerhead. I'm going to try to fix up my bf's ghetto 'local' tank that is probably beyond help, but I'm bored...

    Moving into the new tank today... nervous.

    I know that I've asked how to do this before, but I'm more than a little nervous about moving into the new tank. I have my new aquapod halfway set up so far: right now it's full with fresh salt water and new LS The plan is: 1) take 1/2 of the water from my existing tank, put it in a 5 gal...

    ThatFishPlace.com

    When I get good service and a great price, I always try to let everyone else know. I'm not sure if it's because of my location (NY) or something else, but ThatFishPlace.com has lightning fast shipping and a low price guarantee. What else do we need? :D Just an example: not the first order...

    Brown Jelly Warfare (with pics)... we didn't win

    Hello everyone! Thanks to everyone who tried to help me on my flowerpot coral thread. Apparently all hope is now lost, and I'm about to remove the half alive, but doomed coral. I actually thought I had the problem solved, and somehow cured my ailing coral, but this is obviously not the...

    Flowerpot coral.... yes, I'm an idiot

    I guess I'm just one of those people that have to learn the hard way,:frustrat:. I did it, I bought one. I'm not supposed to be buying anything for my tank until after Christmas, but I did. And, I bought a coral that has a very questionable future in any aquarium. Today, I just decided that...

    What happened to my frogspawn?

    It was fine two days ago, then I noticed the big ugly worm thing (that I hate) near it last night. Today, I came home from work and it looked like this: The whole thing is completely retracted, more that I've ever seen it- even when I've moved it. Then there's a cloudy slime on the top...

    Do my zoas have Zoapox?

    Hi again! Since I'm still trying to accept the fact that a huge ugly worm-thing lives in my tank, I am now looking much more closely at EVERYTHING in there. (Partly because I want to make sure the big ugly worm-thing did not get out and set up camp somewhere else in my house.) So this...

    Has anyone seen the thread for a DIY 13w fuge light?

    It was a 13watt or 18 watt small fuge light. I remember reading it a while ago, and of course I can't find it now. Someone posted it with pics and a shopping list for Home Depot. It seemed so simple, that even I could do it. If anyone could direct me to the link, I'd really appreciate it...

    Houston, we have a problem... at least I think we do...

    I looked on an ID thread, and I think this is some kind of bristle worm (?) Let me just say that it is REALLY big... or at least it looks that way. There is a possibility that it's 2 seperate worms, I guess. The pic is of one 'arm' coming from one side of a rock, but, at the same time...

    Noob Lighting question

    I'm sorry if this seems a little stupid, but I just wanted to ask.... I have a 36 watt (2 X 18watt bulbs) corallife pc hood on my tank, and want to add more light. I have a problem because of the size of the top of the tank. I have a 10 gal hex, and I'm having a hard time finding decent...

    I dropped my new frogspawn!

    I wasn't going to buy anymore fish tank stuff until after Christmas, but I did. :frustrat: I bought a frogspawn that had 3 beautiful branches. Just as I was going to float the bag in my tank to start to acclimate, I dropped the damn thing!:censored: (I won't even waste your time telling you...

    Firefish/ Dartfish question

    Is there a way to tell the sex of these fish? :question: Or are they like clownfish and start off as males and then one of the pair becomes a female after a while? I bought one last week at the LFS, and went back as soon as they got another one in. And of course they didn't know who to tell...

    Question on Salifert KH/Alk test kit

    Hi again! I bought this kit online, used it a few times, and then lost the instructions. This and the Calcium kit are my first experiences with Salifert tests. I'm not really too sure if I'm doing it right. I just downloaded another copy of the instructions. Here's my question: On the...
