Are you referring to the LED lights? If so, although I haven't used the Coralife, I do have LED Lunar Lights from Current-USA in both white & blue on my tank on separate switches. Although the blue is really cool and does shimmer, as the manufacturer said they would, the white shimmer alot...

Hi I have two Bengal Cardinals, one I got 2 weeks ago, and the other yesterday. I asked the man in the shop if I could put two together and he said yes, but the big one I bought first is giving the new little one a Hard time. I looked in my two aquaria books before I bought them but they are...

Does anyone have a relatively inexpensive way of cooling down your tanks? I plan to be using a small tank with MH lighting but I cant particularly afford a chiller right now. Short of positioning a fan blowing at the water surface to take the heat away can you guys recommend anything else? My house...

Can anybody, tell me which, is the quiter skimmer between the two. And which one performs the best in terms of skimming, I am debating which one to get for my 40g. Thanks Rebecca

Hi Guys, Got up this morning to find brown spots on one of my green chromis fish, there's probably about 10 spots on the lower front part of the fish. The spots range in size from tiny needle tip to a bit larger than a pin head. They actually look a bit like brown algae but I think they're under...

I just replaced my Seaclone with a Remora. I got to wondering if the seaclone might work better used in a sump rather than hung on the tank. It seems the biggest flaw is the serpentine injection tube. That has to take a lot of umph out of the flow. In a sump, that would not be present. Or am I just...

Hi, I would like to share some info about my clownfish with you. Monday, late in the night, I noticed my pair of clowns lied eggs on the bathroom tile I placed near their anemone. Did not took the picture then, but the eggs were orange, quite bright, uniformly colored and translucent... Yesterday...

a couple of months ago i bought a bunch of calerpa on a small piece of live rock and it doesnt seem to be growing any. i have it in the second chamber of my sump with a single powerglo 14000K tube running 24/7. i did a cutting and placed it in the main tank but my yellow tang made short work of...

WTB: used 48" Aquarium in London, Ontario, Canada area.... reasonable and in good condition.

Hi - I have 2 cleaner shrimp. I notice that one seems to have hundreds of greeen eggs under its belly. Is she pregnant? I assume that all of my fish are going to have a field day when the eggs hatch..... Am I correct here and is it worth trying to rear any of them? Thanks, Mike

Hi, This is my first posting to this newsgroup. I am starting my first sal****er tank after years of not having a tank setup. I use to keep African Cichlids. I just recently bought a 75G tank and stand, unfortunately the tank has a tempered bottom and cannot be drilled. At first I was going to...

Just received a Remora w/maxijet and have it on my 55 fowlr. Are there any tips for better skimming not covered in the manual? Is it better to have a wetter foam so that you're getting less concentrated skimmate,but a steadier flow, or less skimmate of a more concentrated form? Thanks, Mark

What do you guy's think of the Red Sea Prizm Skimmer ?? Is it a good one ?? i have a 29 Gal FOWLR Scott

Hi, I'm thinking of getting an aquamedic chromis and have some questions on setup. If I'm just using a thinish layer of coral sand and live rock for the filtration will I be able to keep the ph high enough? How long should I leave the lights on for during the first couple of weeks?

I have found a small, bright pink, pencil eraser sized anemone on my Fiji live rock. The tentacles are light and bubble tipped. It is in the middle of the aquarium so I can't get a picture. I've goggled and it looks just like a jewel anemone except everything I find says they are from the UK and...

Well, I thought I did everything right. Just moved into a new house and had to take my tank down and move it. I was very careful and very thorough but still had one loss. Out of: 2 O. Clowns, Rose Anemone, TG Open Brain, Lawnmower Blenny, Red Headed Goby, Tuxedo Urchin, Orange Lankia Star, Scarlet...

Hello all, I'm building out a reef tank and after reading several posts and books it seems the two biggest issues are nutrient export and lighting. I've recently stumbled across a new company that is offering something called sunlight direct. Essentially it is a dish that one mounts outside that...

I have tried to register two times since Jan. and still can't log on. I don't know what I might have done wrong and can't get a response from them. Is there another way to contact someone? I have tried to re- register, but it says my user name and email are already there. I tried to change my...
