So I went to several fish stores today and i noticed a few had priced marked up like crazy. Yellow tangs going from $110-$150, tomini kole and blue tangs from $70-$100, midas blenny $60-$80, yellow coris $50-$80 along with other way overpriced fish. Does anyone know what's going on with these...

So because I had ich in my system, during the fallow period, my nutrients dropped for long enough to allow dinos to overtake my system. It's been one thing after the other. My fallow period has been over for a few weeks but now I have to fight dinos. Highly considering just tapping out and...

Ok so I wanna hear everyone's thoughts on the new GHL ION Director. It can measure calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium and nitrate. I've never heard of anything else able to test all these things.

So I'm looking into getting a UV for my tank. It's a 40B with a 20 sump. I was looking at the 15w aqua UV advantage. What are your opinions, tips and experience with them?

So I currently have a SCA- 301 skimmer that I set up a few days ago that I had laying around for about a year (girlfriend bought it used. She knows nothing about aquariums aside from what I tell her). I noticed it creates a lot of microbubbles from the exit pipe and i hate that. I don't know...

Anyone near the Brick area have a microscope for sale? Or can let me borrow one for a few hours?

I've never had a skimmer before. I've been watching videos but I can't find an answer to this. Bubbles come out from the bottom part where the pump goes in. How do I fix it?

For those of you on the fence on buying a new tank. Today is Blue Friday at Waterbox. They just announced the biggest rimless tank out there with a 300g system. They also got a 200g system. Some giveaways coming, sales. Check them out. https://waterboxaquariums.com/pages/bluefriday

So now that I'm finally done with my fallow period, i don't wanna tear down my qt once I transfer the survivors back to DT and would like to get fish to replace those i unfortunately lost. What is a good place to buy fish from here in NJ? Need a nice clown pair, and a hawkfish for now.

It looks like POTO is having a pretty good sale for Halloween for those of you looking for some nice pieces. Potoween Lightning Sale

So idk how many of you have IG but did anyone see POTO's latest post on this 600g tank? Tell me it's not insane!

So I don't know what's going on. My clown is acting weirder than normal. There's no spots, no slime coat issues. No hazy eyes. She's usually my most aggressive fish when it comes to feeding. It's almost as if she can't see the food. I lost the smaller of the 2 a few days ago. I saw frayed fins...

What are your thoughts on this?

Looking for some cheap, noob friendly SPS to try my hand with. (Got a devil's hand, and plenty of kenya tree if you want to trade. Also got a polyp of blow pops zoa. If you know how to, I got a green nepthea that you can cut yourself a piece of as well. I'm just scared to do it myself) just...

So it seems I'm gonna have to start dosing alk. Not sure what to dose, how to figure out how much to dose and what dosing pump to get. I was looking at the jebao wifi 3.4 doser only because of the price. Any tips or help?

Anybody have any idea what this might be on my rocks? They've been growing steadily and spreading all over. They're soft and clear

Looking for an easy to keep SPS as my first frag to see if my tank is able to keep any. And also for some bubble tip nems.

Ok so I just tested all my parameters and my alk is at 7.2. I don't really have any sps. Just some zoas, mushrooms and lps. My mag was at 1600 and calc at 550. I use IO reef crystals so I expected my alk to be much higher. All my corals look great. Is there anything I should do to bring it up...

So I've successfully kept all LPS and an anemone so far and want to try my hand at an SPS to try to fill the top of my tank. What would be a relatively easy to keep nice SPS that won't hurt my pockets in case it doesn't work out?

So while my tank is in its fallow period, I figured it would be a good time to add pods and allow them to multiply without predators. I was wondering, would filter socks cause them to get stuck when going down the overflow? The socks are the 200m ones. (I do also have red Sea filter cups...
