My Bubble Tip Anemone had a baby today at 4:19am. It took 24 hours of labor, but the new bubbly baby is resting next to its parent, and all is good. Here are the pictures. My Blue Damsel was injured last night, and I got a shot of his side. You can see the small...

I bought some orange zoo about a month ago. On the rock was a couple pieces of aptaisia that I started killing by injecting with kalkwasser. It was working but lately as of this week it seems that they are more plentiful and larger. How can I get rid of these things once and for all? I noticed...

Hello everyone, I would like to convert my hex tank to sal****er and need to replace the original 14w 15" fluorescent lamp. I am having trouble finding suitable retro lighting or replacement hood. Short of going all out and getting a MH pendant, do I have other options? I do not plan on having...

Hey Group, I've got a few 100 Watt Electronic Metal Halide Ballasts on Ebay. They work good with Ceramic MH lamps. Think of them as low cost Ice...

What is the impact of cyanobacteria of the aquarium? I have a bit (well, I'm not 100% certain tho) that has developed on some of my rocks and on the back glass of the tank. Posted some pictures in the group a few days ago if interested in looking further. Thanx Miguel

Anyone have any good suggestions on how to control Xenia and star polyps. They are starting to get out of hand in my tank and 50 percent of my live rock is now covered with them. Thanks R

Greetings to All, I will soon be purchasing my first marine tank and would appreciate a little advice.. I plan to buy a 125 gal with a built in overflow which will be used for fish only or perhaps with some live rock as well. I will install a sump. I have been looking at an AquaC EV-240 protein...

Hi Guys. I am searching for a MH, maybe with PC or VHO atinics complete hood for my 72 bow. I have had a JBJ 4 x 55 PC for about 2.5 years and want to jump to MH. I also heard that the new 14,000K bulbs could be used and I could sans the flourecent part. I am price concious, but I want quality....

I have a 125 gallon reef tank with a deep sand bed. That's 4-5" of Aragamax sand. I find that I am having horrendous problems with red algae covering everything. I did a 50% water change last week and already everything's covered again. I can practically set my watch by it. All fish are very...

I have a small white brittle star - about six inches from tentacle to tentacle. Will it each my shrimp? My wife is rather attached to the shrimp and would be upset if the star ate it.

Does anyone know what, on average, is the length of time it will remain active and at what concentrations does it become toxic to fish. In both short immersion exposure and over long term immersion exposure. As well as what (if any) are the tell tale signs of thiosulfate toxicity.

Just paid 125 bucks (plus 20 shipping) for a 250W 10K MH retro kit. Comes with a 18" batwing reflector, socket, 10K bulb, 10 foot ballast to bulb cord, 3.5 foot ballast to wall cord and a magnetic ballast in a steel case. This is going over my 46 gallon bow front lagoon. The question here is; Do...

http://www.polbox.com/p/pszemol/rybcie/polip-pomaranczowy.jpg I aqcuired them around May last year and they did not multiply since then as I would expect. They look pretty much the same. They do not accept frozen artemia, like other of my polyps do... I have also regular brown and green ones and...

At what pH level will a calcium reactor start to work or start desolving the calcium into the water ?.

Short of causing a war I would like some advice on a protein skimmer to use on a 30 gallon reef tank. I t has been about 15 years since I was in the marine fish hobby and I kept coral pretty well in a 125 but now I am thinking about getting back into the hobby and although I have been keeping up on...
