I recently purchased a piece of frogspawn from my LFS and I had a question about its placement in my tank. The coral resembles a tripod with the actual polyped portion coming off the top. Is it possible to bury the three "tripod" skeleton legs in the sand and keep this coral in the sand bed...

I have several large pieces of pulsating xenia in my tank and I have been wondering what kind of corals I should avoid putting near them? I have zoanthids that will potentially touch sometime in the future. I have wanted to put frogspawn in next to the xenia however I do not know if those will...

The "Red Algae" is actually a pipe organ coral. They have little white polyps that look like daises. The tank is a 34 Gallon RedSea Max Stock Setup. It came with the T5 lightning system which has allowed me to have some variety with the corals. Stock: -Xenia -3xZoanthids (green,pink...

Thanks for the advice. I'll trying doing regular feedings with garlic treated food. Maybe this will help keep Ich away for good.

4 weeks sounds like a happy medium. I was told that Ich is a common parasite in saltwater tanks and it only presents itself when fish are stressed or already plagued by an existing condition. If this is true, why would one have to wait to add fish after an Ich attack? I don't want to sound smug...

I recently learned the hard truth about Ich in saltwater tanks. It is ruthless! It took the lives of all three of my fish in just over two and a half days. I have read different things about the wait time before I can reintroduce fish into my tank. Some say a week some say three months. I turned...

Hey Everyone! I am new to the forum and so I am sure my questions may have been answered in the past. I apologize in advance for the repetition. Anyway, I was wondering about the current in a tank. Is there a guideline for the amount of current that should be running through my system. I am...
