Hi Piratefish! Thanks for the info and your generous offer to send me some kalk. I couldn't PM you because I haven't reached my "quota" of posts in order to send PMs. Is it possible to inject the pests without taking the rocks out of the water? One of the rocks is huge and covered with soft...

I have some pest anenomes in my saltwater tank and have a question. I know I can buy the stuff to kill them but being unemployed at this time is not something that's doable for me so I need to know if this is safe: most of them have long stems before the stinging tentacles and would be easy to...

No, I wasn't planning on using them for food. I got some bigger shells for my hermit crabs from my lfs and the sales person told me there were a few copepods living it in one of them. I knew they were good for the fish, but I never knew what they looked like. Could all these be from those few...

As long as I have a knowledgeable person "at my disposal," I want to ask you one more question. I had a real problem with diatoms a couple months ago, but got it under control. I read about how to add live sand to an existing setup and I added about half a pound. Now the diatoms have...

I just checked all that and ammonia was at 0. The live rock is very small. Thanks

I have a 30 gallon bio cube with corals and a few fish. I have a blue ricordia that I got a couple months ago. It was an inch across when I got it. It has tripled in size--literally. There are now three mushrooms, each of which is about 2 inches across. It has been doing awesome, as all the...

Hey, Brian. Thanks for the info; it's good to know.

Hi all, I have a question about my serpent stars. I have two of them and they appear to be doing well. The only thing is, they seem so hungry all the time. When I feed the fish, their arms come out from under the rock they're under, grabbing at bits of the food. I have watched the tank into...
