Shut down the 180 and need to sell off what's left of it. Only posting stuff I can actually ship. Still have all the live rock that was in the tank but I don't want the hassle of shipping it. Here's what's left: Two Jebao WP-40 wavemakers. $60 each or both for $100. ASM G2 protein skimmer...

So I pulled the trigger for a 20"x20"x8" frag tank and now I am looking at what kind of light to get for it. I want to be able to grow anything in it. I have three of the eBay units over my 180 and they do pretty well but I'm thinking that those are 16" long and with the frag tank being only 20"...

I got a few questions regarding a new frag tank I'd like to start. First, I don't want to make my own since I don't trust myself when it comes to putting 30 or so gallons in a box and trusting it not to come apart and it's all done. So I'm looking to buy one and I was looking at advanced...

I'm wondering why a group of palys in my tank never extend their "skirts". They will open up but only small areas will extend their skirts and most of the time it's only part or a head that will extend. This group I sin the middle of the tank and I have flow going right over it so they move...

That was like a month and a half ago. By the time I got the medicine they needed and got them moved over to a quarantine tank, I had four fish left out of 12. Now a month and a half later I have just two that survived the medicated period. My blonde naso and a coral beauty. Not sure which of...

Came home to a kole tang that looks like it's dying and I'm missing my lyretail anthia. The kole I barely got a glimpse of but what I could see of it it was breathing heavy and I barely got a glimpse of it but it looked like it had a couple white patches on it. I also have a sailfin tang that...

I only have a male right now, no others. I'm wanting to get the females now.

I have a male lyretail anthia I got about a month ago. When getting him, I had the intention of getting him 3-4 females to be with. Would it be ok to add the females one by one or would they need to be added all at once?

The shell posted about half way down in this post is what the shells of these snails looks like. Looks more like collonista than sundial and they have all the characteristics, coming out at night and feeding etc. at night of the collonista...

I'm thinking they look more like the collonista snails. All the ones I see have a light brown/white color and don't look anything like the sundials I have seen. I'm just surprised in the number of them. I have had smaller tanks and don't think I have had this many snails in any of them but...

For a while now I have had a bunch of these tiny snails that mostly come out at night but I do see some out when the lights are on. Are they good or bad? If bad, any natural predators?

Looking for anyone who has had a blue niger trigger in a reef system. I know some say yes and some say no. I have a chance to pick one up and add it to my 180 but want to be sure before I do. The only shrimp I have is a cleaner. The guy that has it says he has peppermints in his tank that...

I have had my 180 running for about a year now and I started it with about 100 pounds of new dry rock from Reef Rocks. I now want to add 50 pounds to it and possibly another 50 a little later after I see how it looks with the first 50. I'm obviously going to rinse it off really well when I get...

I have two Jebao wp40's in my 180 gallon reef. Just noticed today that they newer of the two has stopped running. I look at the controller and the lights are off on it and the ac adapter light is flashing the green light. If I unplug it from the pump the lights turn on like normal. If I...

I did get it out. I had to move a couple of rocks but it conveniently it swap up toward the top and I had two nets and it was easy to catch after it did that. I took it back and got a yellow eye kole tang.

I have been told it's an elegant coris wrasse which according to what I've read is NOT reef safe due to the fact that they eat snails and shrimp. I was told by the guy who sold me it that it was reef safe. Now I hae to watch it and see what it does. I'm calling today to see if I can swap it...

Just picked up this wrasse recently and it was listed as a "Venusta Coris Wrasse" but I have not found much at all on them. Can anyone identify it? I'd like to know more about it. Sorry about the crappy pics but the phone camera blows :(

I assumed RB made good enough lights to grow hard corals. If not, I may look elsewhere. My mag seems normal and the lights on there now aren't very white. As for the light color, less than half of the 40 LEDs on each light are white. Then I have blues and royal blues and a couple UV and one...

Yes, both lps and sps. Only phosphate test I have is the API and most know you rarely get a reading with it. I have no algae in the tank so I'm thinking it's low to non existent. I don't even have coraline aglae 10 months in. My nitrates always hanging around 20. I use an ASM G2 skimmer in...

My 180 has been set up for over 10 months now. I can't seem to be able to keep any kind of hard coral alive and if it does live, it always looks like crap. Right now I have an assortment of hammers, frogspawn, two acans, a few acros and milliporas and two monti caps. All of the above look...
