Is it normal to get several aptiasia on almost every frag I buy, or should I look for a new place to buy them? I'm able to kill them & within a few weeks of treatment they stop returning. I buy them from a local general pet shop. They sell birds mammals reptiles etc, as well as fish.

I started tail of the tank thread already thank you. I will make sure to keep that updated as I progress.

Hi Dave here. Nice to meet everyone. I have a 5 year old son, a 15 year daughter. My tank is a 10 gal with a 4 gal sump. 2 occelaris clowns, tiger pistal shrimp and nass snails. Several coral frags too. Tank is less than 3 months old. My other pets are a basset hound and a fire belly toad. Here...

Nice. I never considered the idea of coral and no fish. I already have fish, so it's too late for me to do that, but realy cool.

Your tank looks greats. I'm think I might be getting through the diatom bloom too, I hope. It's would be nice to see some coralline algae soon. I have good calcium levels. I started testing it when I added the Lps. It's 500 without dosing anything. I use NeoMarine salt. My friend had a whole...

Started up my tank in early January. I have a 10 gal display, 4 gal sump, with 10 lbs live rock up top and a few lbs in the sump. Stocking is 2 occelaris, pistol shrimp and Nass snails. Sadly I just lost my yellow watchman goby. realy cool fish, I will be getting another. I think it was a...

Here is a few pics. This is my new rescape. The rocks are all supported underneath with pvc bases to creat a space for the shrimp to dig without the rocks collapsing to the tank bottom. I tore doen the whole tank yesterday to do that. I hope that creates a good habitat for the existing pistol...

I'm sorry. I will figure out how to post a picture eventually. I have no clue how to @ the moment.

I'm in Little Ferry. I just re arranged the rock scape today. I will take pics tomorrow to post when the lights are back on. Thanks for your interest.

Thanks. O.3 Volts. I'll give it a little time and if every thing is ok, I'll put another goby in for pistol shrimp. I'm realy surprised. That was a hardy fish, I had put it though a lot of stress last month when my hydrometer was out of calibration. Accidentally had my salinity at 1.030. Now...

Would that be a matter of placing the probes of a volt meter in my water? Are there any recomendations for stray voltage? I never considered that. My occelaris and other creatures seemed uneffected by watever drove the goby to go haywire. Thanks for your suggestion. I am very new to this. I am...

I have started my first new saltwater aquarium. I used a 10 gal display tank. With 10 lbs of cured live rock and a 2. To 3" deep sand bed. The display tank was started at the beginning of jan. I added a dump about a month later with 4 additional galons. There is approx 2 lbs of live rock in the...
