Thanks so much!! :maitre

Sorry about the mispellings, I meant to ask "how to cut..." :langle

a green star polyp that has grown waaaaaay to much, it has spread over some of the sand and another rock. I know I should take some of it to the LFS but this is something I've never done before and have no idea how to "cut it--brake it". Thanks for the help!!

Thanks Tim, I'll give it a try !

dang it!!! I'll work on the pic, in the meantime if anybody has any ideas please share thanks!

sorry, here is the pic... :langle

I found this snail (or looked like one) standing on the edge of his "tail" expelling what looked like rotifers out of his mouth... I'm including a pic, it's the best I could do, he is above the zoos, you can see the antennas... thanks to all

reefman23, I have a 12gal deluxe nano with the original pump it came with (105 gph), I placed the polyps on the sand bed on the opposite side of the outflow and it seems to be happy, there's a lot of H2O movement on that side. I have a maxi-jet 1200 I used for awhile but my clown was strugling...

no problem islandcreation, I'm looking forward to that answer. I don't think I have a strong flow on it, I guess I better get that fix.

The guy at the LFS told me it was a polyp colony...but I would like an actual name for it if possible. Many thanks!!!

:loveface Those are gorgeous :loveface I think I'll get my first zoas from them!! Thanks!!

For all of you who read my previous post and my chiller dilemma... I've got good news!! I bought a sumersible powerhead and hooked it to the chiller, to make things short, when I got back from work today the temp. was a beautiful 78! :loveface considering that outside was 101 and in the room was...

Thanks Edgray, unfortunately no pics yet, last night I had to move the tank to another room because of the noise the chiller creates...soooooo I had to start again with day 1... as soon as it's all set up I'll take a few pics and post them. :langle

Thanks for the input guys, as of now (5 hrs. later) the temp. has gone down 4 degrees. I do not have any livestock in it yet, I'm trying out the chiller with just plain freshwater to see how it works (it works for both fresh and saltwater). You all are right, I'm going to buy a smaller/slower...

I hooked a CL-85 chiller into my 12 gal. nano. It's been a little over 1/2 an hour and it hasn't cool 1 stinking degree... how long does it take for it to work? The temp. is 88 degree and the chiller is set up to 78 degree. The pump I'm using is a QuietOne 1200, it runs at 296gph...

The water is a little cloudy with some small clumps of salt at the bottom, looks like sand. sg is 1.20 (measured with refractometer) so I added another 1/2 cup and waiting to dissolve. There's nothing else other than salt and H2O in the tank. I don't remember this happening with my 55 gal...

Thanks to all for your replies!! It's good to hear about the electricity issue, I did not have MH's, just a whole bunch of equipment running to keep my H2O perfect without too much work... or TimSchmidt was right... :lol3:

:maitre OMG you're my hero man... :maitre I'm new to nano's so this is definetly an inspiration!! :loveface

Hello to all, I just ordered a deluxe 12 gal. nano and can't wait to set it up! I had a 55 gal for about 2 yrs. and everything was fine, except for my electricity bill...so...that's why I'm going down to a nano. Somebody please tell me electricity is not as bad with a nano. Our 55 took at...
