    Cris' 60

    I've had the watanabe's for almost a month now and they're great fish. They almost act like the "parents" of everything else in the tank. When my Clowns get irritated with each other the Angels will go swim inbetween them and keep them apart. I don't know if it's just coincidence or if they...

    Jesse's 20L SPS tank

    Hey Jesse, I have a quick question for you. I was just looking at the picture of the bulbs your running. I was curious why you are running two of the ATI Blue plus? I just bought another 2x54 for my 60 but I need a fourth bulb and was thinking of doubling up on the whiter bulb.... Ben at...

    Plate coral or frogspawn

    you can get that white plastic grid stuff from home depot that people call eggcrate. I don't have anything keeping my fish from jumping out and have never had a problem. I don't think this is a problem for most people.

    Plate coral or frogspawn

    The easiest way to upgrade if you decide you need to is just buy the one that comes with the 150watt HQI to begin with. :-)

    store bought water

    Please forgive me for bringing back such an old thread however I have a quick question. My LFS "ran out of fresh water". What ever. Anyway I'm in dier need for a top off so my only option is store bought. Somewhere up there Jesse mentioned that you need to be careful because even if the...

    Lights

    It makes sense and is consistent with everything I've heard and read about the T5. Jesse is the biggest promoter of T5's on this site and has them on his own tank and if he's skeptical about it then I probably would be as well. However he wasn't aware that T5's come that small so maybe that is...

    planted 2/3 gal. betta tank

    So is this the project that you might or might not be working on? He's pretty crazy looking. I'd say he has a fitting name.

    zoas

    Yeah, They've been in the tank at this location now for about 2-3 months and were doing great until they decided not to open. I'm going to look into that REVIVE stuff. So you say you can dip all your corals in it? SPS and everything? I've glued the little piece they're attached to a...

    Need Advice please

    Jesse, The article says 3 lamps that equal 24 watts. They have 12" 8 watt T5's. http://www.naturallighting.com/web/shop ... how_detail I couldn't find any in the spectrum that they stated, but these are what's used in UV sterilizers I guess.

    zoas

    but why aren't any of the other Zoas effected by it? That's the part that I find strange.

    Need Advice please

    Wow, That actually does look too good to be true. When I saw the price I was thinking the lighting was probably no good. 3 T5 bulbs is pretty nice though as long as the reflectors are quality. I'd say go for it, but I've never had experience with that manufacturer. Good luck and let us...

    zoas

    I have 6 different colonies of Zoas on one large rock. They've all been doing really well, but about two weeks ago one of them closed up and hasn't reopened. there are two polyps out of the whole bunch that are still consistantly opening. Any ideas what would cause this. i've searched and...

    coralline algae

    Even in my 60 gallon... I don't add any supplements and my calcium stays around 400 just with water changes. I have a ton of Coraline and my tank is only 4 months old. I buy filtered ocean water that comes with Calcium at that level, but If I mixed my own the calcium would probably maintain at...

    green hair algae plague

    This is very interesting. I've heard it before at my LFS, but didn't believe it. Now I'm beggining to though. This type of information needs to be a "sticky" in the begginer forum, don't you think?

    CRABS!

    I have a decent size emerald (1.5 inches across his body) and he eats snails and algae, but my fish are all so territorial he stays away from them. They're always chasing him away. It's pretty funny watching him run from a blue damsel that's half his size. He does that "hey, hey" thing like...
