    Coral the 130D lighting supports?

    So I bought a red sea max 130D(35 gallon) tank to move my livestock from my 14 gallon boicube, haven't started yet though. I was wondering what coral the lighting supports? I was limited with the biocube from things like clams and certain types of coral. So if anyone could give me advice on the...

    So keep the fish in buckets with the old water while I'm acclimating them and moving them? My shrimps too? Do I need to get buckets for each fish and shrimp?

    My Pin Cushion Sea Urchin :[

    I wondered since they're sensitive to nitrates. Then I scraped and killed alot of aiptasia in the middle chamber of my filter and put alot of aiptasia X in there as well. I thought maybe it wouldn't be great that flowing out of the filter and into the tank but, wasn't sure. I didn't know if the...

    My Pin Cushion Sea Urchin :[

    Yeah because, my nitrates have never hurt him before. I guess I can try a new urchin when I move to a bigger tank. Thanks. :)

    I NEED all the advice I can get....

    Thanks I'm moving the stuff from my room to the living room to the bigger tank. I'm kinda afraid of that too. I'm thinking what should I do with moving my fish? Get some bags from my aquarium store? Or get some containers ready? For moving/acclimating them? Haha. I'm also thinkig how can I get...

    I NEED all the advice I can get....

    Yeah because, I think I have around 15 lbs of live rock in my current tank with coral growing and glued to it. If I could I wouldn't bring any of it since I have aiptasia. But I think I'll try the mostly dry rock with the new tank and then later add my liverock. Thanks alot though. :)

    My Pin Cushion Sea Urchin :[

    Thanks for the reply. Yeah mine had been fine in my tank for about a year and I fed him sea weed to be sure he got enough food. He lost all of his spines and could barely move. So I took him out and put him in a zip lock baggy since I was leaving for the easter weekend. I was attached to that...

    I NEED all the advice I can get....

    If it'll help with my aiptasia problem I will definitely look into getting some dry rock with little live rock. I probably have around 15 lbs not so sure of live in my current tank. Sp I've gotta figure out how much more I'll need in addition to the new tank. The sugar grained sand does get all...

    My Pin Cushion Sea Urchin :[

    I've had my sea urchin whos named affectionately Nopalito since april 2010 since the beginning of my 14 gallong biocube. He's looked not so happy a few times before but, I put some sea weed in the tank for him to eat and he perks right up. I did a water change yesterday and found a crap load of...

    urchin question

    I just lost my pin cushion urchin that Ive had since last april today. :[ But he would let go of some spines since he shoved him self between the rocks and all. But if he's losing alot it could be the nitrate or copper problem. Or he could not be getting enough food because, they crawl around...

    I NEED all the advice I can get....

    Someone at the aquarium store I go for my water and other things told me I should scoop some of my old sand in there while its cycling to help the process. I was going to add my old rock, coral, to the new tank when it was ready. Ive had a not so good experience with aiptasia recently so I kinda...

    Thanks for the encouragement. :D I love the pic of your madarin Goby by the way. I've seriously considered putting one in my new tank when the time comes. As long as my 2 feisty fish wont bug it. I've heard they're more peaceful.

    I NEED all the advice I can get....

    I've never heard to use the bigger grain of sand. Whats the difference and why is it better? Then same thing with the dry rock, so its better to put mostly dry rock with some live rock to make it "live"? Thanks alot for your advice...very helpful :dance: Oh and I was thinking of making a thread...

    I NEED all the advice I can get....

    Thats very helpful thanks. :D So I'm going to have to supplement the water like I did before with calcium, Magnesium and all that while cycling right? When I'm transferring my fish should I get bags from my store to acclimate them to the new water in or put them in something else? So I should...
