Wow, sorry for the lack of updates, I haven't been on this forum for quite a while. I actually have taken down and sold most of this tank. I never really got a chance to finish setting it up all the way. Just became too much work with trying to finish two degrees and get ready to apply to...

Thanks Mike I have a chiller actually, but the lights still heat up my room way to much to the point were I can't stand being in their. Glad to hear you got your ich problem resolved too. It can be tough sometimes getting those tangs over the ich.

Quick Update: Busy w/ school but thought I'd let everyone know what's up. Fish to date: -Pair Percula Clowns -3 Firefish -Sixline Wrasse -Tricolor Wrasse -Yellow Rose Goby (had a mated pair, but female took her own life attempting to explore outside the tank) -Yasha Hasa Goby...

lol, and once again I fall victim to my memory. sorry, it was available when I posted it. must have sold it before you saw it.

just stumbled on this by accident the other day: http://www.platinumreefs.com/other.html $49.00 for Yasha and shrimp. Looks like it comes w/ a candycane pistol though, not randall's. The owner is Tigahboy from nano-reef. If you visit the vendor trader feedback forum at...

I would never buy a fish from any chain store. Buy from hobby stores that specialize in the care of saltwater organisms. Better safe than sorry.

:thanks

sounds good.

Most corals could ideally outgrow your nano, but it is no different than if they out grew a larger tank. You would just trim them back, prop them, move them, etc, depending on the type. Good beginner corals: -mushrooms -zoanthids -leathers -anthelia

The rock is cured, however shipping will most likely result in some die off, and as a result you may very likely get a mini cycle. It shouldn't be to bad. 3-5 days tops and you should be ready to go. Just keep an eye on the ammonia and nitrites for the first few days. If it is going to...

Check your calcium level too. Nano part A = Calcium (acid, reduces pH) Nano part B = Carbonate (base, buffers and raises pH) Calcium and carbonate are proportional too, so if calcium dropped, alk could have dropped too. If you pH spiked high, your alk shouldn't have been low...

Honestly, The only ATO I would trust is the JBJ ATO (like the one in first link) or the Tunze Osmolator. Go w/ the ATO, cant beat that for the price. There is a good mod on NR too for removing the ability of the JBJ ATO to beep when in action. hth

Thanks! :mrgreen:

Mike, If you don't mind sharing, I was wondering where you got your Deltec AP600 skimmer and how much you paid for it. One of my family members wants to get one and I'm trying to help them find a good price. Thanks, lg

Before you do anything... Always do a water change. Anytime a coral looks a bit out of it or not like its normal self, it is telling you that something is not right. I would say 60% of the time, a water change will fix any problem you have. Give that a try, give it a day or two, and if...

lol thanks I don't remember, read it somewhere along time ago

Zoanthids themself are not toxic. However, some types of palythoa, parapalythoa, zoanthus, and other anemones have been found to contain dinoflagelates that produces some types of neurotoxins (such as palytoxin). I wouldn't take too much concern over this however, as many large claims have...
