    sand is starting to get brown spots

    You can continue to use the floss, however just plan to clean the floss EVERY SINGLE DAY. You must clean the floss regularly to remove the solid wastes before it decomposes and dissolves back into the water. A mechanical filter is useless unless it is kept clean. A very good link just to...

    I sustained my first reef injury tonight -- got nailed by BW

    Me too. I even get the hollow spines in my skin and it doesnt do a thing. I just wash my hands and they come right out. But there are species of bristle worms such as fire bristle that-as the name implies-burn like fire when their toxin enters the skin.

    Is there anything else that makes a sound like pistol shrimp

    I know that manitis shrimp pick at the plastic cup that they are kept in at the LFS that i go to and that makes a sound that you can here from about 15 to 20 feet away from the tank. I dont know if they are able to produce a sound on their own though.

    Nice tank. Like the rockwork. Just curious, do you know what kind of rock it is? Some of it almost looks like driftwood! I checked you other posts and couldnt figure out how long it has been set up. So? You'll like the clown, they are fun. Looking forward to seeing your tank grow...
