Hi, Im sure some of you will find this dumb but I am new to the Sal****er tank world and I need lots of help. I have a bio cube 29. I bought it from someone on Craigslist assembled and working with fish already in it.I changed the water in my tank, then when i put the protien skimmer back on, it...

Hi all, I recently sort of abandoned my reef tank. The onlything circulating (and poorly) was a pump. A clown fish was thriving however. Even the Protein Skimmer was off. Anyway, the fish must of died because one fine day I saw that the tank was just black, and the stench was just unbearable. I...

Anybody use one of these? I've got two and am getting a few more. Big improvement over normal style powerheads. The best thing is they stay in place.

I was just checking my records and noticed my Lemonpeel angel is over 11 years old. Pretty good, I'd say. He's spent all his life in the same 55 gallon tank with no skimmer or filtration. Took off the Bak- Pak skimmer over 8 years ago and never looked back. Just live rock and lots of powerheads....

My tank is overgrown with bubble-tip anemones which I plan to peel off the rock and trade in for some corals or some stuff... The trick is - how do I peel it safely from the rock without hurting it? Anybody has a trick to this job?

So I took my girlfriends Fish Only salt tank of 7 years and upgraded. Added a UV Steralizer, Skimmer, New light hood with T5-40's from Marineland, changed the crushed coral to white Fiji sand, then added 75 lbs of live rock...let it settle for 2 weeks, then added about 8 or 9 different kinds of...

Hi, everyone. I recently purchased a used 65 gal reef tank. I am planning to reuse it but it has been in storage for almost a year in a "dirty" condition. I wanted to know what is the best way to remove the old pink / purple algae from the aquarium before setting it back up. I am a little leery...

Does anyone have experience using a dual channel dosing pump with this 2 part calcium-alkalinity product. I'm concerned about the alkalinity part staying mixed in the container that feeds the dosing pump. It's very hard to mix in the first place when you dilute it with RO-DI water. If I mix it...

It is probably posted somewhere, But I can't find it. I have a 30 gal reef, My protein skimmer will sit doing nothing and all of a sudden it will fill the cup and run in the floor. It was doing my set as low as I could set it this am. I fed the three fish I have with flake food and it took off,...

Hi all, I have a 29G LR, LS, PS Hangon, MH, PowerHead with/ media filter, button coral and one clownfish, along with a few surviving crabs and lots of worms. I say surviving because my cleaner crew slowly dissappeared over time??? I had abandoned my tank, and for months would just replace the...

I just wanted to inform everybody here at marine reefs that I started a blog at http://sal****erspace.com/ Keep up the great posts. btw, my reef tank is doing excellent!

It's a 10g mini reef and currently I'm putting in 2ml/wk. It's not even registering on the test strip and I'm scared to step it up. Anyone else with a small tank, and your opinion?

To stop bubbles from coming out the outlet the company gives a small black mesh bag, to attach to the outlet pipe. Has anyone built a bubble trap on the top of the outlet stack? And if so, did it work. Thanks

Where has everyone gone ? Regards, Fishnut.
