    vortech mp40

    I just got a Vortech MP40 for my 90 gal tank, does anyone know what mode is best to use and at what pump speed? I'm hearing that the Reef Crest mode is better if you only got one vortech, any suggestions? thanks

    Water changes, how often, how many gallons etc

    I have a 90 gal tank, 6 fish, quite a few more corals than fish. For the past year, I have been doing 10 gal water changes every two, two and a half weeks. The tank is doing good, fish are healthy, but the sand is getting pretty nasty now, and I'm thinking, not just because of the sand but...

    Need help to find out what this is

    I have several of these things growing in my tank, it started out with one, now I have about 4 or 5 that I can see.

    Clam closed for a couple of days

    I just looked at the clam again and I see the little bugs are back crawling all over him. He's still closed, I tried the freshwater dip but obviously it didn't work, bugs are back. I'm posting a pic, there is actually two bugs that are visible toward the center of the picture. Any ideas how...

    Clam closed for a couple of days

    Thanks for the replies. Actually, I read something about tiny critters called amphipods and copepods which most of the times they say are harmless, I did rinse the clam in freshwater and I actually saw all the little critters fall off the clam. Anyways, I put him back on the rock, and it...

    Clam closed for a couple of days

    I got a clam that has been closed the last couple of days, also I saw some little critters crawling all over it, they don't look like bristle worms, actually, they are pretty small, don't have a clue what they may be, can these things eat the clam and eventually kill it? Thanks

    clam coral

    I just got a clam coral. I placed it on the sand in the bottom of the tank (90 gal). I have a 48" solar extreme T5 which is on about 9 hours a day. I don't know much about clams, can anyone advise if I placed it correctly and with sufficient lighting? I usually target feed 2-3 times a week...

Any ideas? I'm attaching a picture of...

    Alternating powerheads

    Alternating powerheads

    I have a 90 gal tank with two powerheads, I have only been using one, my corals are mostly moderate current types, but I would like to add the second one to change up the flow a little. What is the best way to do this? Someone mentioned timers, but I need to know every how often should they...
