Hi I just got a colt coral today. I did everything the LFS told me to do. I placed it on the sand bed and it decided to float around the tank,finally it land back on the sand bed between the front glass and a few rocks, question is is that ok for it to be so close to the glass? also it's not on...

I'm not sure if it's because of the blower, but it's hanging by a string. What can I do to help it? Thanks Rose

Hello everyone, I was wondering how much water flow is needed in the 55 gal. tank. We have the xp2 filter, and a maxi- jet wavemaker model 900. Is that enough water movement? For my birthday my sister gave me a 29 gal. tank and we want to make it into a saltwater tank she also got me a...

Thank you They are all on independent switches and power cords, the timer should be coming soon. About the lunars do you turn them off or let them run all night? Thanks again, Rose

I have it set up, I was woundering about the timing. How long should each light be on. It has 4 lunar, 2 x 54w 10,000K and 2 x 54w 460NM lights. I have a timer coming later this week. Thank you Rose

For my birthday my daughter bought me the NOVA T5 light.... Well it did not come with any true directions(Just How To Instail It)!! So if anyone ... ANYONE at all knows about this light and knows how to work with it... please write me on here or e-mail me! Thank you Rose

We are about 45 min. to an 1 hr. away. Which ones have you used? I did recieve a catalog in the mail the other day which is Dr. Foster & Smith I've ordered from them for my dogs but haven't for my fish tank. We are still trying to decide on which lighting to get. We need better lights. I'll...

ok,thank you here are a few questions which may seem kinda dumb, but what is SPS? also when doing a water change you dont add any more salt right? or do you? No one informed us on that either. And how much water do you change at a time? we have a 55 gallon tank. I wish we had a better pet store...

for filtration we went with the RENA filstar canister filter the xp2, the man at the pet store said it would work the best for us, I hope he was right. No protein skimmer yet, they said that I did not need one until a little later when we get more things in our tank. As for lights we are not...
