    Converting my tank

    OK great. Thanks for the reply. I was examining the tank just now and see how I can move the rocks around. Going to give it a shot this weekend and ask for some fish money for my birthday. I hope the wife is good to me! :)

    Circulation Pumps

    OK thanks for that. So I should get another one and place it i the same location but put it higher in the tank so that it gets a ripple at the surface as you say? Is the word powerhead interchangeable with circulation and wave pump?

    Circulation Pumps

    What do you guys mean by 20-40x tank volume? I have a 26gallon bow front tank with a 425gph Koralia circulation and wave pump. Is that good for my tank? Also, how should I mount this? I have it mounted on the back side of my tank, close to the top and it points downward towards the front of the...

    Converting my tank

    I'm still new at this even though I've had my tank for about 9 months now. After a visit to the LFS, I saw a tank on the counter that looked awesome with coral reefs in it. I want to have a similar setup. I am wondering if I can easily switch to this? If so, what would I need? I figure I would...

    scared...

    Just an update. I finally got off my lazy butt and cleaned the tank with one of those scrapers from a local fish store (acronym is LFS I think). Its the best $14 I've spent so far! My inlaws were coming for Superbowl party and I didn't want them to say I was lazy...although it was not too...

    scared...

    I am a little concerned and almost scared. I have no idea what this purple stuff is growing on my tank glass. I tried to clean it but it feels like spaghetti sauce that has dried up on your plate. I tried to scrap it off but its not coming off at all. Any advice is greatly appreciated. See image.

    Clowns fighting

    I have two clown fishes. At first they got along just fine. Now they are fighting. Actually its more like one is a bully. He is a tiny bit bigger than the other and when its fighting time, the big one chases the small one away. Lately its gotten physical. The smaller one is fighting back. Is...

    Power Outage

    I just found out that the entire street in my community is without power and will be so for at least another 2 hours. It is a pretty hot day today in Charlotte NC. If the tank gets very hot, I'm going to lose my clowns and probably my corals right? How hot can it get before its too dangerous...

    1 Month Newbie

    OK so the snails and cutting back on the hours the lights are on for the next few days will help? Cutting back on the lights won't hurt the fish or corals?

    1 Month Newbie

    Bifferwine, I'm starting to get green algae on my glass. It seems that all of a sudden I have this outbreak. I wonder if it is because I leave the lights on for too long per day? I leave it on for about 10-12 hours. Last night, I was not home until midnight and it was on since 10am. I suppose I...

    zoa frags

    I guess if the hermit crabs don't keep knocking them off they would latch on. Going to stop by Wal-mart to get some super glue gel. Man, this hobby is expensive! This weekend I spent $110 on coral. In the past two days I've spend $40 at my LFS. This weekend I'm spending another $60. That's $210...

    Local fish store

    From what we all know, most sales people are concerned about selling and making their commission. I have to say that the sales people at my LFS actually cares and only sell me what is needed. The LFS is like a fish supply super store with 2 stories. These two guys there are enthusiast themselves...

    How long does it normally take for coral to attach to the rock?

    OK so go for the super glue gel kind right? The chemical is not toxic in the tank?

    OH MY GOD!! The special glue at the LFS is $15 for a small tube. That's ridiculous.

    Is it a good deal and good mix for my tank

    I didn't quite understand your comment. That is a good price for what is listed? I am meeting up with her on Saturday. I will then see if it is something of good quality. I'm not trained yet to tell if its good quality but I will be able to find out once the corals get used to the tank.
