    Tank drilling near red bank?

    Ethan at Aquatic Obsessions in Avenel, nj, drilled the tank I purchased from AO, using a Glass Holes kit.

    help corals turning white

    When you say that the water from the 55 was topped off with "all ro", do you mean ro/di which you used to mix saltwater yourself? When you did your water change, we're you using ro or ro/di? When was it? What salt mix are you using? Did you use live rock (cycled) and live sand for this tank...

    That is a very interesting thought. For the life of me, I cannot get mine to bubble. The last time I had a bubbled anem, I was running my 20g before the 2009 tank crash. I did feed that one krill, but I have not since done more than target fed my anems with pieces of krill, at most.

    Glad to hear that Sonny. Fingers crossed for a full recovery for your clam. . .

    Woke up to a cloudy tank today - I hate Hydor PH

    Sorry to hear this Sonny. Try a turkey baster for delicate corals. Hopefully, most will be ok if it was just a light dusting.

    Would low salinity kill a fish?

    I generally agree with Phil. Small gradual changes in SG that over time add up to large changes won't usually kill a fish. That said, it all depends on what level the SG of water got to. It comes down to the fish's ability to osmoregulate. The higher the SG, the more a fish has to work to...

    65 gallon reef and 28 nano

    Skimmers for nanos are tough to find. Our 12 g nano runs without a skimmer. as far as carbon, I suggest chemipute elite. If your corals are ok with a blackout period of 36-48 hours, then that can be very helpful as well. I try to do at least 20% weekly water changes.

    NJRC mentioned in Tropical Fish Hobbyist February 2012

    You could also go to our sponcers and ask if they carry it. . . I know Trop does, and I believe Will at AO does as well!

    Pink tipped green bubble tip anem- point pleasant

    Hi Paul, it has not moved in my 20g at all, but it did walk in Don's tank (on to the glass, which is how he got it out for me).

    65 gallon reef and 28 nano

    Welcome, Megs! We have had hair algae problems with our 12g nano before. Are you running power compact lights? Are you using a skimmer? Anything to remove phophsphates? Any carbon? It is a pain in the neck, but manual removal of hair algae (literally put the rock in a bucket of water and...

    Ok, so how do you get your anem bubbled? For the life of me, I cannot get mine to stay bubbled!

    Pink tipped green bubble tip anem- point pleasant

    Thanks GROSSR, I prefer to leave the anem on a rock. It can then be moved off of the rock by its new owner if they choose.

    Pink tipped green bubble tip anem- point pleasant

    Mike and I have made the decision to break down the 20g; as such, the green bubble tip anem is up for adoption. Is is a captive raised split that we got from Don (tazmaniancoyboy) over the summer. It is free to a good home, pick up in point pleasant. Be warned that the rock it is currently...

    Bristle Worms

    I have bristle worms in my tanks. The only tank where I routinely attempt to remove them is in my 12g nano- and that is because they can go after very small fish or inverts. In anything other than a small nano, I would not be concerned at all. I agree with bob that arrow crabs can be...
