Ok, so my 46g tank seems to be doing fine. Crabs ok, snails ok, 3 fish ok. I'm really not that good of a tank keeper because my last water change...
So on Halloween night I came home to find my house had been broken into. They took my laptop, camera, and all the jewelery they could find. (the...
Ok, so I was looking at my tank this morning and noticed that I couldn't see any crabs moving around. Somewhat alarmed I tested the tank for params...
You probably damaged some of the LR from the temp. It will regrow, it will just take longer as there is less to start from. And online is the best...
Cycles are in 3 stages. The first is where waste is produced, or in this case you added the decaying material. This creates Ammonia. Once the...
Both pictures are of the same thing. Just different lighting and focus (hard to focus up close w/o a macro lens:() Do you mean a mantis shrimp?...
I fear that there is something bad in my new LR. I just got it 2 days ago. Yesterday I saw something about 1" long with a tube shaped body and one...
Just got another 20lbs of LR from a LFS in Orlando, FL ($7.99/lb a bit pricey). But look at how much stuff there is growing on it. The last time I...

My tank has been up and running with LR for about 3 weeks. I noticed a film on the surface last week but it seems to be worse now. It's thick enough...
Just removing the 2x4 probably isn't a good idea. It's there for a reason. However you might be able to replace it with something less obtrusive....
You don't need much per day to sustain the water level. My 46+10g sump looses a little less than 1 gal per day. When you fill the tank, or do a...
Alright, so I have a few different testing kits and so far none of them agree on my pH. My cheap one is just a test strip for an array of easy tests...
Tank is already cycled. That's why I got the live rock. I would like to know how I can monitor the LR to make sure it's doing good. How to reduce...
Oh and just to avoid confusion. The skimmer is not wet skimming, the water in the cup was overflow from when I had just added water and didn't adjust...
So here is my setup. 46 Gal tank, 10 Gal sump, DIY overflow box, DIY Wet-dry to sump, Coral Life skimmer, QuietOne Return pump. 2 MaxJet 600, plus...
