It is very hard to see in the picture so I really couldn't tell you what kind of algae it is. Maybe someone with more algae identifying experience...
The algae growing on them may have nothing to do with their behavior. That could simply be due to a rise in dissolved organic compounds. I'd run...
I have a golden headed sleeper goby who just the other day lost use of one of his pectoral fins. Since then he has stopped sifting sand, spends all...
We probably wouldn't be breathing if it weren't for cyanobacteria :) One of the world's largest producers of oxygen. In the fuge is fine. If it...
Agreed. Good flow will keep it in check.
I believe they are just algae eaters. If yours have small holes at the top of their shells they are not true limpets but keyhole limpets... they can...
Possibly a limpet... I have several in my tank too that hitchhiked in. Haven't found them doing anything bad yet, just kinda hang out on the rock.
During the summer I ran a floor fan pointed up so the air would blow across the top of the tank under the light. Without it, it would hit 86 - this...
Thanks man. I think it's a matter of finding the right bait... trial and error until it happens!
Did he start off in the cup, or did you catch him? If so, how did you catch him? (I'm trying to catch one myself in my tank)
I can't imagine it would be too expensive. PM me your zip code, I can figure out the cost and we can work something out.
It is Florida Live Rock. If it makes any difference as well, he was out during the daylight hours eating cerith eggs.
Do you want it? I'm trying to trap it! :)
Pretty sure this guy is a mantis shrimp. Can anyone possibly ID which kind he is? He has been known to eat cerith eggs. There are several snail...
I have an Air Water Ice / Typhoon unit and it works great.
His body is paper thin, he's about 1.5-2 inches long, about 3/4 of an inch wide. Just saw him for the first time tonight. Any ideas? [IMG] [IMG]
Exactly where I'm drawing from as well :)
The idea is to draw cool air from outside the fixture, have it pass over the halide fixtures and then exhaust it via a fan. You wouldn't want it...
Having dealt a lot with airflow myself it's best to draw air in across the fixture from one side only. So, I would recommend having a vent on one...
80-81 is fine... my tank runs steady in the 82-84 degree range. Actual ocean temps in reefs range from the mid 70s up to 90, so really anywhere in...
