Anyone tried feeding with Coral Smoothie? I just picked some up. The ingredients look pretty good. I've been using Dr. G's Oyster Magnifique and Mark Weiss Combo Vital with a lot of success.

Does anyone know how bad this species is for a reef tank. I have them all over the glass which means they are all over the rock (but can't see any). I'll probably syphon them off the glass. Are their any nudi's that eat these things? I've heard people say peppermints, CBBs, rusty angels, etc...

What are the odds of taking 2 coral bandeds, putting them in the same tank and then having them pair up and breed? I had a mated pair (wild caught) for 4 years. One of them died (got stuck after a shed). 6 months later I went diving and grabbed a loner. I through it in the tank. 1 month...

Does anyone know of treatment for zoo pox besides Furan-2 dips?

I just moved this guy from the middle bottom of my tank because he was encroaching on just about everything. I didn't realize how big it was. Maybe I should chop him up. Only started with 2 heads and now I count about 55!

Got this large bubble a few weeks ago. It's stayed right where I want him except having to save him from my koralea the first night. Went with a purple/blue them at my last LFS visit: Blue Flower Pot (looks purple under the light, $20) Purple and Pink Rhodactis (4 heads, $20)...

I received one of the new AI nano's hot off the press. This thing is sick. Aside from the power supply and light brick it also comes with a mounting arm (for rimless tanks) and a data cable to hook up to a programable controller. It has 2 light modules each with 1 bright white, 2 blue and 2...

I need a new bulb for my 250W HQI. What is the best color temperature for SPS? I've been running a Hamilton 14000K with actinics.

I thought this was pretty cool. It's an ongoing experiment comparing the difference between LED and MH. They compare par levels as well as high and low light corals. pretty interesting. Mr. Saltwater Tank’s LED Experiment I don't have one yet but after careful consideration I'm a big fan of...

Does anyone know the maximum allowable amount fo leaking voltage? I tested 4 koralea and 3 via aqua pumps last night and they all leak about 5-6 Volts each. is this voltage induced because of the electromechanical nature of the design? When you add them up it starts getting excessive. When...

I've had this slow growing stylapora in my tank for 2 years and he just started to bleach yesterday.:frustrat: should I start chopping him?

anyone know what kind of Blenny this is? Caught him diving on east coast of Florida. The photo and lighting isn't that great, but the back bottom half is bright red. I can take another pic if necessary.

I just had red bugs for the first time. They had infected three acros that were adjacent to each other. Only one of the acros had color loss. I had a local vet give me some free samples of interceptor. They could only give me 2 tablets of the the 5.75mg ( dogs up to 25lbs). I crushed the...

I have lots of different SPS and various other corals. My tank is a 29g bowfront with a backpack wet/dry with built in UV and protein skimmer. I have a 250W 10000K MH and 2 65W CF actinics. Most of my corals are doing phenomonal and multiplying out of control. From day one my Acros, Mills...

Can anyone recommend a website for soft coral parasites and disease? I just had a coralimorph mushroom die. He puked up his guts a couple days in a row first. I now have a hairy mushroom starting the same thing after a week later. All my other corals seem ok, good extension etc. My water...

My star polyp is growing out of control and taking over other corals. Is there a way I can prevent it from growing in certain areas? I have been trying to scrape it away with a knife when it comes in proximity to my ricordia and coralamorphs but it seems to come back even stronger...

I have a 29g bowfront packed with lots of soft corals (ricordia, hairy, purple, blue, & green mushrooms, green, star, & daisy polyps, various coralamporphs, some hammerhead, etc.) I made the mistake of coverting my tank to aggressive baby fish which have now gotten large and eaten all of my...

So I figured out this was a Box Crab, does anyone know if it's reef friendly?
