I am looking for a lighting set-up for my 40gal hex. I was thinking of a MH with PC lighting or maybe straight VHO lighting. The idea is to run all of the lights for a few hours a day and running only some of them in the morning and evening.
Anyway, I was looking for suggestions that have...
There has been a light brown tridacna clam for sale at a LFS. It has been there for several months and they are asking $50 for it. It is about 4-5" long and they claim it is a Golden Tridacna derasa. The clam appears to be very healthy as is is opened up wide.
Does this seem like a good...
I am fairly experienced in salt and freshwater aquariums and am looking to expand my knowledge...
I was wanting to know if there is some literature someone would recommend for more experienced hobbyists. I was looking for something more technical in nature.
Any suggestions?
I bought a half-black angel from a LFS and noticed after a few days some sort of parasite is on the fish. It is buried under the scales and has some sort of tube sticking out.
First does anyone know what it could be, and second is there a way to treat it without quarantine? I have been...
I have had a range of tanks from 1.5-90 gal both saltwater and fresh. I am going to be starting on collecting pieces for a 200+ reef tank. My first item will be a tank then I will build a stand and so forth. Anyway, I was looking for advise that would be helpful to avoid any unforeseen...
I have a huge frogspawn I was wanting to frag but the coral tissue goes all the way to the base. I assume you frag it like any other branching coral but am concerned about cutting into the tissue.
Any thoughts on the subject?
I have a finger leather coral which has been doing well. In fact, it grows like a weed. A few days ago, I noticed that it had areas on it that looked just like when you burn yourself an it swells up. I rubbed the area and noticed that the coral was rotting in these areas.
I assume it is some...

I have a problem with micro bubbles coming out of my return from the sump. There are 2 places where I suspect bubles are getting in: one is through the valve and the other is through the pump. I have also noticed that salt builds up fast around the pump.
Has any one else encountered this problem?
Does anybody know where I can get a colorful frog fish? Also are there any that don't cosst an arm and a leg? The only ones I have seen cost $200 or more.
The other day I was moving live rock and touched a bristle worm. It left a lot of its hairs in my finger similar to cactus hairs. They didn't sting but it cought me off guard. I have herd that they sting but never that they leave hairs in you.
Any thoughts or similar experiences.
This may be a strange question but would a maroon clown and a false percula pair up? Will they likely get along at all?
Has anyone tried to put two different types of clowns together?
