    What do you do with your overgrowth

    Over the last several years I have been blessed I guess with excessive growth of severall types of polyps, Ricordea, Anthelia, Kenya Tree, Toadstools etc. I have given away so much I can no longer find people that want them and the local petstores aren't interested in them either. I have...

    used lights?

    I should have specified Bulbs. It just seem wrong to dispose (recycle) bulbs that still work even though they no longer meet the requirements for what they were originally intended for. Couldn't they still be of use to somebody for instance in a greenhouse? I guess what I'm asking, is there...

    Other than routine maintinance and water changes I have added nothing to my aquarium for about 18 months. Today I found that my Flame Angel has Ich. It was suggested by a local pet store that it may have come in with some frozen food. I feed Marine Cuizine and I find this extremly hard to...

    Diatom Filter

    I bought my first (of two) in 1979. I use it as a gravel vac. They work very good for that. I don't know about using them full time. Don't know it that helps at all but that's my experience with them.

    Chalice, Elegance questions

    I have an Elegance and I think the best answer to your question is. They don't know front from back. They will sting in all directions. I would recomend being very picky about the Elegance that you bring home as they are not the same corals that where on the market several years ago when I got...

    Reef safe butterflies or angels?

    I currently have a Flame, Coral Beauty, Black tailed Lemon Peel and an Eibly's angel all residing in my reef. I havn't had any problems with any of them. But every fish will have it's own personality so it's kinda luck of the draw. Also I would suggest that if you plan on having more than one...

    question about Marine Ich

    I understand and appreciate your remarks and I also feel the same when one of my fish are sick. That being said I can also tell you that I have firsthand experience that sometimes letting nature take it's course is the best plan. I have read your articles and neither solution is viable in my...

    question about Marine Ich

    I have a blue tang that appears to have ich. It is eating very well isn't doing the usual scratching associated with ich and the spots seem to come and go from day to day. Could this be anything other than ich? My other question is since the fish seems to be doing so well can I wait it out...
