Go for a few nassarius snails... those are the ones that will lie in and sift the sand. Great additions. Jesse

This one is also great... http://www.advancedaquarist.com/issues/ ... /short.htm Jesse

I know this article is somewhat long, but please read through it. I know anyone wil benefit from doing so... http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2005-10/rhf/index.php#4 Jesse

I wouldnt keep it... it wouldnt be any good in a refugium or anything else for that matter. If you wanted to keep it though, maybe you could build a specific tank for it... maybe like a 10g or something. Jesse

Read through this post and see what you find... http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showt ... did=691978 ... it is pretty long, so dont LITERALLY read through the whole thing... you know... Jesse

I would rely more on a clean-up crew to do that rather than a fish. However, a yellow watchman goby will occasionally sift the sand and would do okay in a 12g. Jesse

Hello kath and :welcome to nanotank.com! You should be able to find all the answers you need throughout this "Beginners area" and also in the General section as well. Many people here have the nanocubes and there are a ton of info on modifications etc that should/can be made to them... here is...

Most everything will survive... in fact, there is more in there that you havent seen yet. Most likely, you will continue to find stuff ever a year or more later. The anemone-looking hitchhikers, are the aiptasia? If so, it might be best to get rid of them with Joe's Juice or some other...

The ones Ive seen looked like this... http://www.athiel.com/lib10/crab.gif http://www.tampabaysaltwater.com/thepac ... lacrab.jpg Black claws are always a dead give-away to anything that is NOT reef safe. Jesse

Great video.... What an idiot. He musta been under the influence of something. Jesse

I personally wouldnt do any SPS or clams in a nanocube... stability (temp, pH, Ca, Alk, etc) being the main reason. The other is that most SPS would do best with a turnover of around 60x-80x per hour... that would be about 720+gph. A third being that SPS go through alot of chemical warfare...

Sweet! He looks healthy. My only concern would be the substrate... looks like a large grain size and he may not be able to sift it. Jesse

Definitely run the carbon and change it out every 2 to 4 weeks. Resins like Chemi-pure and Purigen are a great addition too. Jesse

If you have LR rubble in your filtration, make sure you clean out the detritus that forms under it every week... if not, it can easily defeat the purpose and lead to excessive nitrates. Jesse

Great tank! How long has it been set up? Jesse

Zoas and SPS arent usually a good mix... they have different needs. Jesse

that's alot of light for a tank that will only have ~6" of water! For a frag tank...probabl;y a 10,000k or 14,000k but hang it high... man, that will be intense! I dont know if I would do that... just IMO though. Jesse

How tall would the tank be? Do you have a pic of the ballast? or a link? What kind of corals do you want? Jesse

What size tank will it be on? I personally like the blue 20,000k look. What kinda ballast does it have? this will effect the color a little. Jesse

They opened up fully today... Jesse
