Thanks, they will be put on Christmas list.

my lfs is selling lyretail athius for $25 ea. to my understanding, these are schoolers; can I get 1 and then add 2 at a later date or 2 and do the same for 1? They would be going into my 75g. Thanks.

I am always kidding my wife about wanting a million dollars and a mermaid when she asks me what I want for Christmas and my birthday, and yesterday I saw this little plastic mermaid that one would put into a freshwater tank. Are they safe for saltwater?

it will be purchased and intsalled. Thanks!

What size Koralia pump would be good with a 14g BioCube? Right now there is very little water flow in my son's tank and I think it needs way more than what it has. Livestock wise...he will have 2 cardinals (after i remove the 3stripe damsel), 1 shroom and several zooas. The LFS has...

I understand. It's a new puter with little software to use at the moment. The pic was taken with my phone and saved at 2mb.

The LFS wants to sell this to me for $20. What is it? It was fragged and sold to the LFS about a week ago.

This is being held at the LFS for me while i figure out if i really want it.

I have decided that I want more fish than corals for the time being. I will still have some corals, but I am going to stick with zooas, my frogspawn, mushrooms and a few hammer heads. 75g tank, oversized protein skimmer, 2 koralia 4's, more live rock than i think i need -and shop lights with...

I got the the lights and they were about the oldest reef lights I have ever seen. I do appreciate his help, but wow. the ballasts were separate from the lights and the wires were long enough to sit on the floor. I have a 1 1/2 yr old box who like to chew on evertyhing so these were not an...

Thanks for the thoughts. I have been given loaner lights from a buddy of mine at work who also has a tank....they are not pretty by any stretch of the imagination, but at least i will have lights. Which saves me from having to go buy lights that are not quite what i am looking for.

Hello, I have a Current USA Extreme light set for a 75g tank. Or used to have.......yesteday, i learned that evaporation has to go somewhere and my lights fizzled. I am not on the lookout for an inexpensive way to get light into my tank. I have mostly easy corals, like zoos and shroms with...

Several years ago, my lfs made a tide pool of sorts as a showpiece. It was approx 5ft long, sand high an dry on one end and water with sand low at the other end. He had some interesting fish (including a pair of sunburst anthius), crabs, etc. and every minute or so, the pumps would kick and...

What about: Octopus Hang-on-the-Back Skimmer

hey there, My mother is looking to purchase a HOB protein skimmer for my brother's 30g tank. She wants to spend around $75 and get the best she can. He currently has a 10yr old Prizm that barely works. In his tank I think are 2 fish, and about 20 small shrooms. What would you suggest...
