    Clam Removal

    Is there a safe way to remove a clam from liverock. I think its a T. crocea. My RBTA decided to stay on the same liverock my clam is on, and its starting to spread towards the clam. I tried to wiggle it off, but its on there pretty good. Anyone successfully remove one, without damage? THX

    My 1st DIY CA reactor. This is a cross between the Geo reactor and the PM reactor. I decided on a reverse flow for better CO2 scavenging, and the unit will be managed via PH controller. I'm just waiting on my pump (panworld) and in-line probe holder to complete the plumbing. Still working on...

    Cyanobacteria Toxic????

    I cleaned my tank over the weekend, and scrubbed off all the cyanobacteria present on the rocks and walls. All my fish and corals were fine before this event and a few hours later I found a clown on the bottom, dead. Then, my yellow tang was gasping for air, as well as the other clown. This...

    Just got back from our trip. Here are some pics of the Cozumel underwater scenery, taken 40-110 feet below the surface inside a mini-submarine. The sub took us all the way to the edge of the reef, where it met the ledge, a 3500 foot drop into the abyss :o .
