    Brightwell CoralAmino

    Hey guys, I was just wondering if anyone else on this forum used CoralAmino in their tank? I purchased a small bottle of this from Marine depot after reading such wonderful reviews. I started adding it to the tank per recommended dosing amounts in an area of high flow about 7-10 days ago. While...

    New Aqua Illumination Sol LED's...

    I just got these lights in a few days ago and was wondering if anyone else had these, or similar LED's? If so, what kind of timer cycle do you run to simulate nature as much as possible? Or what is best for corals and fish, etc.

    New coral from LFS(well, used to be local when we lived in utah!)

    We LOVE this store in Utah. If anyone is near the layton area, this is a must go to store. Beautiful and STOCKED! Ask if you want info... but anyway, on my recent holiday visit with my family there, we swung by this store to reminisce with the owner and left with just under $300 worth of frags...

    Open Brain

    I took this photograph today and thought it was pretty cool. This was a piece of coral that was half dead at a LFS and we snagged for like $5, and now it is beautiful and thriving!

    2 New Frags

    Went to the LFS yesterday and came home with 2 new frags, and a nice zoa rock for about $80! Not a bad deal. Anyway, I'm not really sure what either of these frags are. I have an idea that this one is some sort of stony, like a torch or something? And this one, I'm not really sure...

    nerite eggs?

    All of a sudden, after ordering a clean up crew package that contains a bunch of nerites, these white dots have popped up EVERYWHERE in my tank. Just over the past week, they have easily tripled in number as well. I am pretty sure they are nerite eggs, but if not, what are they? Any info would...

    Starry blenny

    I've had this blenny for over a month now, and slowly he seems to be not swimming much anymore and I rarely see him eat. He looks like he is just withering away. Is there anything I can do or I can feed him to get him back to good health?! Thanks!

    Red bubble algea?

    I have new algae developing in my tank that is red/bright orange and looks like bubble algae. Is that what it is? And if so, is it good or bad? And if bad, how to remove it?

    Blue Spiny Lobster?

    My LFS just got a blue spiny lobster in, and myself, have never seen one before. I have done brief research on them since I got home, but some of it seems a little contradicting. Are they reef safe, and if so, would my 120gallon tank be a good home to one?:question:

    One more question about the long nose butterfly..

    Can anyone help me identify what it eats?? I've tried mysis, brine, and emerald mix (mainly for the tangs though), squid, mussels, and just started growing my own brine last night? This little guy won't eat anything...

    Just excited about the new additions!

    Today we picked up a sweet orange sponge, a black long spine urchin (which I love!), and a long nose hawkfish (which I can't take a photo of yet at the moment because he is hiding under the overflow. Here they are!

    Trace elements

    Does anybody have a list of what you routinely add on a monthly (or however often) basis that they can lend to me? I have a 120 gallon reef tank with fish, sps, lps, inverts, and fish in it and am not 100% sure what would be the most beneficial and helpful for it. Any info would be appreciated.

    Yellow tang/ Long nose Butterfly fish

    I just introduced a Long Nose Butterflyfish into my tank yesterday and all day yesterday and so far today from what I have seen, the Yellow Tang just keeps picking on him. He will nip at his fins and hit him with the white spot on his tail.... has anyone else had any problems with these two fish...

    Moonlighting?

    Anyone have any suggestions of where to purchase inexpensive moonlights for my 120 gallon reef tank? I am dying to put some in to see the different colors in all my corals and to hopefully encourage some breeding of my clowns!

    weird hippo tang?!?

    So just two days ago purchased a smaller blue hippo tang from the LFS, and the first day I brought him home, I turned the lights off to help calm him down while acclimating and instantly he swam up to my overflow box and stuck himself sideways against the slits so he was like squished up against...

    Blood sucking bug?!?

    Last night I noticed this weird clear bug hanging off of my clown fish. It started filling up with blood, so I caught the clown in a net and used a pair of tweezers to get it off after he had tried several times to have my coral banded take it off as well. It is about 3 cm long and has a bunch...
