I know I need to add calcium since my levels were ~420 and I think I need to increase my KdH. What else should I be adding? I see so many products that talk about improving coral growth and health, but I am one whoe think less is best and thus I do not want to add stuff that my tank really...

thanks for the advice. They are all going to be very small so room should not be an issue. I spent the weekend finishing my aquascaping, but I can't seem to get the look I want. I will mess with it some more tonight since I will be getting the first batch of corals this Friday. This might...

cool - I now I have 9 total here are the five others that I got Coral #5 Coral #6 Coral #7 - I really like this one Coral #8 Coral #9 I hope they all grow well in my tank - if they do I will likey try to frag them and sell them on Ebay as well. Great variety

it is $20 base shipping for me +$5 per frag. The main thing is I can't get these at the LFS and the ones I can are pretty pricey. I bought a similar frag tonight from ThatFishPlace since it is about an hour from me and it is double the price of one frag I got through this guy. I guess I...

I hope to only drill a few rocks to shore things up and then use epoxy in other spots. I will have the rock in a container and only have it out when drilling. I wish I would have done this from the beginning, but I am sure most people say that all the time about this or that.

then I might just get a GBTA instead of spending $100+ on a RBTA :)

Coral #1 Coral #2 Coral #3 Coral #4 with shipping it was $92 for all 4. I will likely get a few more from him and the extra ones will only be $5 more per coral to ship with this batch :) If anyone knows other people selling on Ebay that gives a break on shipping to PA please let me...

I have a 37g Red Sea Max so I will not need a high flow one, but I do plan on getting a larger tank in a few years. What are the key things it should have? Any particular brand/model to look at?

should I worry at all of it getting sucked in? I figure it is drawing water in from all around the powerhead and not one small opening so I might be OK? Just wanted to know before I buy the anenome

Well its been 2 months since I started and my Ammonia, Nitrite, and nitrate levels have all been 0 for a full month now. I will be getting the other test kits this weekend - I can't find them at any of the close LFS so I have to drive a bit to get them. I am having some issues with algae...

99% sure that is what it is - thanks the "fast movers" part is very true. At least they are good for the tank - I have a bunch of them too.

The mainly come out without the lights on and if you turn the lights on they can actually move relatively fast for a snail/slug. I thought it was a chiton at first, but I am not sure at this point

I thought once a day was fine, but now I see 2-3 times a day? Is this correct?

fully enclosed, but he might be able to jump into the refuge on the back of the tank - I need to dismantle the hood and look today. thanks

I looked the best I can in the tank and can't see him. I will look harder in the sump area tomorrow. Its a Red Sea Max 34g tank and thus it is possibly that he might have gone back there. Being a new tank and the first two fish that I have added I figured I would see a spike if he died so at...
