Anyone have an idea as to what the clown fish are doing in this video? They do this several times a day. I notice because I can hear little popping noises like water drops almost. What I see, is both of them at the top of the tank there biting at bubbles or something. Clown fish blowing...

Has anyone tried to keep Aiptasia under control with Berghia Nudibranchs? Thinking about ordering some but don't know anything about these. Looking for opinions from people that had / have some. How effective are they? How few can I safely start out with in a 120 and have them breed (cause...

I've recently been looking through the vast list of reef safe fishes for those that will eat some worms and parasites without risk of them also eating my Blood Shrimp. So far I've pondered the Yellow Wrasse and the Neon Dottyback, but they both have risk of eating shrimp. An employee at...

I've had this little girl (yes, she's a female Splendid Leopard Wrasse) for a few weeks now. One of my favorite types of fish (Leopard Wrasse). I just caught her doing what I can only guess was picking parasites off the Tomini Tang. He's had a case of ich the last couple weeks. He was sitting...

So... a couple months ago I had gotten my fourth RBTA (1-3 had died for one reason or another). After a couple weeks I was afraid this one was going to go the way of it's predecessors. I'm happy to say, that after two-ish months, it's tentacles are growing back and it's looking great! I can't...

So... round #4 trying to keep a RBTA alive in my tank. The only reason I'm even trying again is my water params have been pristine for over a month, and I have a maintenance schedule down that I know will keep them that way. This is the best my water has been the entire time I've had my tank...

I just kicked my powerheads into feeding mode to feed my tank. Seconds after the current died down, I noticed something I had noticed a couple times before, but this time something was different... There was what I can only explain as "smoke" puffing out of a hole of a large piece of liverock...

So, I've had my tank for over a year now. I've been researching and learning about corals and watching mine grow for a good amount of time. During the course of a year I've slowly realized why some people stay away from some/most soft corals. I have a colony of green star polyp that I'm...

I just got a Hanna digital phosphate tester from BRS, and this is quite possibly the best testing equip investment I've ever made. Second best being the Red Sea Reef Foundation Pro kit (Ca, Alk, & Mg). I'm probably late to the game on this stuff, but wanted to throw this out there in case...

My Tomini Tang always goes to the back right corner of the tank to poo. I've watched him swim over there, dump, then swim off more times than I can count. There is no way it's a coincidence. We're talking like a 4x4" area he's repeatedly using for a toilet. I find it quite amusing. Has anyone...

If you have Radions I'd love to know the schedule you're using. My tank is 24" high and my Radions are mounted about 7" above the water. I'm trying to figure out what intensity I should have in the middle of the schedule, and how long I should keep that intensity (or some varying intensity...

So, as the title suggests, I'm using a float switch to switch my BRS ATO pump on and off. I've noticed the switch turns on and off too much when the level is just right. Anyone else using the ReefKeeper for something similar? I'm wondering if there's a way to set the pump so it will run for...

Has anyone used any of the coral pellets that Fauna Marin makes? Specifically thinking about getting some of this stuff: Ultra LPS Grow and Color

What would cause a Montipora to start turning brown? This coral is one of the first in my tank and has been fine all this time, but started turning tanish a couple weeks ago. I see there are a couple small dead spots too. The only thing that's different now is the light might be stronger, and...

I have a "JBJ Auto Top Off Self-Leveling controller" that I got from BRS that I'm looking to sell. It has never been used. This was one of the best ATO controllers in it's price range, but I ended up buying float switches that plug directly into my Reefkeeper (didn't have the RK when I...

I've heard good things about these foods... Rogger's Reef Food - RoggersReefFood.com - Welcome to Rogger's Reef Food - The Best Food for Fish and Corals! Haven't ordered any yet, but plan to soon... Larry's Reef Services - http://www.larrysreefservices.com Haven't figured out how I can...

I'm finding that I need to do something to further stabilize my KH and Calcium levels. I've been manually dosing and seem to forget at times, which throws things off a little bit. Currently, I'm manually dosing with REEF Fusion 1 & 2. The doser I'm eyeballing to automate this is here: BRS 2...

I've been noticing an increase in fish jumping and ending up in the overflows. My Jawfish was acting really odd; changing it's home every few days, swimming along the top of the water at times. A week ago the Jawfish disappeared, and today I found two of my wrasse in an overflow. One of them was...

So... I determined that I have (had) stray voltage in my sump. By the process of elimination, I found the culprit to be the protein skimmer. I'm hoping since the skimmer pump is under a year old that Reef Dynamics will replace it at no cost (other than maybe shipping). We'll see. The real...

I got a new coral today and noticed a hitchhiker hiding in it. Couldn't tell what it was at first and put the coral in my tank. As I sat there watching it, I noticed it was a small crab. It moved around in the coral just enough for me to get a glimpse of it. After a minute of Googleing, I found...
