I had no problem keeping my crocea under PC's. I had one for just over a year. I had it high up just under the lights and it seemed to do really well. I decided to try it after Sergio said it should be fine. Everyone I asked on RC, or on clamsdirect.com's forums pretty much all said MH were...

I don't know if you guys have seen this, but since you're talking about elegance corals and the LFS is evidently still telling you that they're easy to keep I thought you might want to check it out. http://reefcentral.com/forums/showthrea ... did=310425

John and Sergio at Global know their stuff. They are 2 of the 4-5 people that I trust from the LFS's in Houston to ask advice from. As for the person on Marsh that was particularly critical of them, well appeared to be trolling. He kept making very critical posts about Global without actually...

Some peps will eat aipasia, but not all of them will, it seems to be a somewhat hit-or-miss thing. I've heard of a few people having them go after yellow polyps, or star polyps, but I've never heard of them going after zoos. B

The elegance still looks pretty close to the frogspawn. Could it still be getting stung? It could be starting to go, via the disease that Eric Borneman is trying to study as well. Good luck man. All your pics look great BTW. B

Re: sweet I'm feeding the harlequin about one starfish a month-3wks at this point. I started off with a pair of them, and was feeding them every couple weeks, but one disappeared, and I moved this one into the smaller work tank, so I cut back. So far so good. I don't really think of them...

That's really a great setup. You did a fantastic job. B

Exiled, Let me know if you find the bridge version anywhere. I looked all over for it, and couldn't find it, and I agree with you that it's very sweet looking. B

A 1" bulkhead will normally allow approx 600gph to flow through it with no problems. So you can have a return pump that will pump up to that ammount with little or no issues. On a 10g tank, it would be easy to get a 600-700gph pump in your sump, split the return line with a SCWD, and just run...

Yes these are peanut worms. They're harmless. B www.mesa.edu.au/friends/seashores/p_noduliferum.html www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/sipuncula/sipuncula.html www.ldeo.columbia.edu/dees/ ees/life/slides/phyla/sipuncula.html This one has some good video, but it will take awhile if you're on...

The first site I looked at for peanut worms says they get up to 65mm. That's about 2.5 inches. Second one said 2-3 inches for full grown ones. I think they got it right, and that's probably what he has. B

Sweet. That looks really good, and it's easy. It still doesn't have lot of flexibility, but the ease of installation kinda balances that out. I don't have my moonlights on yet. The club did a DIY moonlight meeting, and I got my kits, but I didn't have my canopies ready yet, so I still...

Your tank looks fantastic SM. The pics are excellent as well. Thanks for sharing. B

www.marinedepotlive.com www.liveaquaria.com www.fishsupply.com These sites are the first places I generally look for a decent idea on what a fish's requirements are. Most of their info is good. Not all of it by any means. If you're borderline on what they say, do some more in-depth...

As far as star polyps go. They're supposed to be one of the easiest things around. I tried them a few times when I had the system set up with the 55g under the pc lights and never had any luck. I decided to try a couple more frags now that I've got the better lights, and so far so good. This...

Thanks for those that voted for my pic. I can't wait for the next contest. Mike and Steven, you guys are nutjobs, and it's great having you guys on here. :lol: B

I think the general consensus is that they won't leach anything into your water. I've seen many sumps made from rubbermaid-type containers, and I've never seen any negative reports, other than some of the cheaper tubs will get brittle over time. I use a normal plastic kitchen trash can for my...

You should never, never, never try to use two pumps moving against each other to move water. One of them will always become, clogged, break an impeller, burn out it's motor, etc... and the other one will be able to continue pumping normally and flood the other area. The easiest thing for you...

I don't know about your LFS situation, but several of the stores here carry both the 3/4w, and 1w lights. If one of your LFS carries them and you can go in during a slow period maybe they'd put a one of each on a small tank so you could see what you'd prefer. I think either one would...

Interesting. I don't actually know how they reproduce. My red brain tends to puff itself up quite a bit after eating, but I've never seen it actually moving. B
