Plenty of experience with blue spots, they are one of our favorite fish but permanently on the will not buy again list. As people above said really need cooler water then what we run and eventually run into problems. They are prolific jumpers so you need a really secure lid as well, like not...
You could get a bunch of nassarius snails, they stir the sand too if you are not set on a fish. Jawfish can become tricky, they may only stir the sand in the one spot for their burrow. They can also steal frags and other things depending on the size and temperment of the one you get. The...
We just did that a few months back, got some dry rock and removed some liverock that had awful palys on them. It was probably less percentage but you could add dr. tims or the equivalent if you think it might start a mini cycle.
Agree with nanoJoe on this one as well. Also with the LED bulbs and various spectrums and UVs they can hit, they might pull more color from your color because again wider spectrum. So not necessarily changing the color of the coral, just allowing you to see more.
Agree with Itzju, however different spectrums of T5s will bring out different colors which is why you wan to use different bulbs. For example, the purple plus will really make your red colors pop.
This has been an interesting follow for sure, I stopped using their stuff just because it was expensive and getting harder and harder to find. Switched to instant ocean (we have a calcium reactor) and have been happy with it since. The salt mix that left the most residue that I dealt with was...
Picahna is such an underrated cut of meat. I have grilled it and used a sous vide to frying pan method, but have not smoked one yet. Might have to give it a shot.
Wow someone posted from their Droid RAZR back in 2012, haven't seen those words in a while. Ed, I have no idea what happened to that tank or if it is even setup. I think I remember at some point they wanted to bring in someone else to take care of it. I assume someone would have to go there...
We have moved a bunch of tanks this size (unfortunately) and it can be done without a ton of losses. If you can mix up a bunch of water and have it ready at your new apartment, like almost your total water volume. Use a completely new sand bed (if you use sand), you don't want to use the old...
