    Hatching Brine Shrimp in-tank and other Qs

    What I did was use one of those side containers like what LFS use to put the fish in when caught from the main tank. I have that actually in the tank, so basically in the tank instead of being on the outside. Both water are seperated, there's no mixing. All I did was add a air stone and eggs...

    Fragging Zoas

    Is there a particular way to glue? Do you just put glue on the rock then attach the Zoo? Or do you place the zoo then glue the outer portions of the zoo to the rock? Sorry to cut in Eric. Just wondering how t glue?

    Thanks Erik... Determining whether or not I should get my first fish? It'd been close to two months after my cycle. One month and a week with LR and two weeks with cleaners, I think it maybe longer. But I leave sunday for two weeks for training :sad: I guess I'll wait cause I don't trust my...

    Powerhead for nano's only! Cost $10.00 can't beat that...

    Okay, I bought this "whisper power filter (internal) from tetra" thinking it will be used just to filter out my LR's while their in my 2.5 gallon tank. The 2.5 was just for curing the rocks so I didn't really care about a $10.00 filter. Until the filter sucked in the live sand and it stoped. So...

    Just bought a nano with BRISTLE WORMS HELP

    I just called around to my local LFS and one of the main LFS here said 6 lines won't eat bristle worms. :?: He said he general carrys them but he's all out. He stated their on order. So.... The LFS is probably one of the highest regarded LFS here in my county.... Then again I'd be very...

    Just bought a nano with BRISTLE WORMS HELP

    Steven so a 6 line would be able to stay in a 5 gallon? I know you said yes but just want to confirm it. Funny you said that about arrow crab. My LFS said he heard that they eat bristles and was going to capture a bristle to feed it to the arrow, but there was about 4-5 people needing help so I...

    Coral Question

    Flyguy... I still don't have any fish, thats the reason for being patient. Alot fo people here that are new put in fish after two weeks with LR, they don't let their LR's cure or watch their water parameters just in case they have spikes. What happens afterwards is that their inverts/fish die...

    Sadie... I was so frustrated looking at the cloudiness of the water. Did water changes, got chemi-pure, change the filter pad, cleaned the glass hoping it was smuged. Nothing worked :sad: So I went to the LFS and got water and LS. If this didn't work saltwater tanks weren't for me ha,hah,ha...
