    Yellow Tip Elegance HELP

    I probably should have posted sooner for some advice but here I am. Bought a yellow tip elegance about 1-2 months ago. When I bought it, it was out and about, long armed, etc. Brought it home, acclimated properly, placed it in a 50-100 par area for first few (2) weeks and then moved it...

    Pair of Clownfish and Large Goniapora

    I tagged buddy Ron just to check it out, he is looking at clown pairs. I already have a pair of mated black clowns, I don't want to ruffle their gills lol. Thank you though.

    Battling Nitrates & Phosphates

    I can't even lie, I thought this was an excess of nitrates and phosphates because I didn't read thoroughly. I suck. Biweekly water changes would be best. Add fish definitely. I stand by my light suggestions still! Sorry for the confusion *insert Homer Simpson DOH here*

    Battling Nitrates & Phosphates

    I would definitely get a PAR meter (rent one or find someone to share), because you wont get more definitive answers otherwise. You'll keep guessing. MY input about ramping from 35% to 100% is I wouldn't do it so fast. If your not losing coral, increasing your intensity by 5-10% per week would...

    Alien abduction! Where are my fish?

    Sounds to me like the clean up crews did a really good job. Any chance your parameters beyond phos/nitrates varied while you were away? I've lost fish to never be found and I've also found LITTLE remnants of their skeletons which you'd never know was skeleton unless you really observe it. Then...

    Welcome To NJRC! Take a minute to introduce yourself

    REEFCO in East Boundbrook is great. 100% marine/coral store. He's got a great selection of monti and basically everything else. He's only open by appointment during week and 11am-5pm Sat/Sun but WELL worth it.

    Bad Hair Algae

    I'm sure nitrates are affecting my situation regarding the urchin death, but I'm having the exact GHA to Cyno transition you are using Vibrant. I was more so inquiring in general as to what I'm doing, without results, and seeing if someone had any alternative suggestions. I might just have to do...

    Bad Hair Algae

    I'm dosing both Vibrant and seachem prime. Having the exact same issue and neither seems to be dropping my nitrates. My tuxedo urchin lost all its needles within a week. Livid.

    Bad Hair Algae

    This is intriguing because when I started dosing vibrant is when I had hair algae issue start and I’m currently dealing with a similar outbreak. Did you get it before you started dosing vibrant or after? I’ve been dosing vibrant about a month. Dave mentioned you me he’s heard it having reverse...

    Test Kits?

    Red Sea is most reliable in my opinion. I've had troubles with Hannah being 100 ppm off.

    Ocean gallery 2 experience

    Reefco is opening Tuesday-Saturday starting this week I'm pretty sure. I would advise any and everyone to go to him before Ocean Gallery II. I've watched OGII clean their tanks and it literally consists of them swirling their bare hands in the tank and causing a tornado, stressing the hell out...

    Sand

    What would be opinions on adding sand after being bare bottom? I've been bare bottom for a few months but as most have stated above, I like the sand look and I admit, the rock structures definitely move around more as they are not anchored by sand as well. 1) Think this would cause me more...
