The larger one carries the shells out with his mouth and drops them on the live rock. It undermines the live rock and covers them with fine sand. I was...

    Bought a LR with about 15 polyps on it. After a couple weeks in my tank, they all disappeared except one. Not sure weather their getting eaten, or just hiding.

Other critters in the tank seem to be ok as well, and water perimeters look ok, except for a bit high in nitrates. I didn't give that much thought as...

    RO vs DI

    I have recieved my new 85 gpd RO system, but haven't had time to install it yet. My question is I did not get the optional DI for the system. How important is the DI for my marine aquarium vs just having the RO water? I do have UV sanitizers in both my 55g display tank and my 30g Q tank. I...
