    Looking for a nice Tang

    I want to add another tang to my 180. I have a brown mimic that is doing great. Would love to add a health yellow or naso tang at least 4-5 inches. Rather buy from a hobbyist than a store. Just better and safer. Thanks!

    WTB 180+ reef ready aquarium

    Not sure I can trust my acrylic 180 due to some crazing on 1/2 acrylic, so I'm looking to replace it. I can go larger as long as it has a 2ft by 6ft footprint. A 225 gallon would make the change worth while :). Need it to have an internal overflow also. Will go glass or acrylic but acrylic...

    Calcium conflict

    I asked this question on reef2reef hoping Randy would answer, but no luck so far. So I'll try here. My calcium on my Hanna reads 567 and on my red sea its 360. Alk (Hanna) is 7.67 for the record. I was very careful doing these tests. I'm using 0 tds ro/di for the calcium Hanna test. Could...

    Skimmer evaluation ie organic or protein test.

    There are a million skimmer options out there, at many different price points. Wouldn't it be nice if there was a test to see if your skimmer was doing its job. Wouldn't it be nice to have some science behind you skimmer purchase. They all fill up with crap, but are they getting out all the crap...

    2 Cinnamon stripe-less clowns for sale or trade

    I just bought these two guys from ACC this past week and have them in my QT. They are eating everything. I decided after doing some in depth research that in time they will be too aggressive for my "Peace not War" tank. They are really beautiful and act like a mated pair. Love to get $40 for the...

    Snail eggs, leave them or scrape them?

    I'm really enjoying the free snails that keep appearing in my tank and sump. I was wondering what is the best way to increase production when snails leave eggs on tank glass. Should I scrape them off and let the flow take them or leave them alone for a while? Thanks!

    Adding vinegar to kalk water top off

    Does anyone add vinegar to their kalk water to prevent C02 from degrading the kalk water? I read Randy's article about it and he seems of the opinion that its not all that necessary, but can be useful. I generally mix 5 gals of kalk for my top off every 5-6 days so it does not sit around too...
