    Frogspawn

    I have a seven head frogspawn that has already lost two heads. When the lights come on all the polyps extend great and look happy. Now I see that another head is starting to come unattached from the Stoney base. It is at the near the bottom of the tank and on med flow. What would make it do that?

    Pulsing Xenia HELP

    Ok I've have two bunches of pulsing Xenia in my tank for 3 weeks now and they have been doing great. In the past week they looked like they doubled in length and were great!

    Ok I'm new to all the equipment for a saltwater tank. I just bought two new koralia 1150's and when they are hooked up to the wave maker they make a clicking sound every time they kick on and off. Is this normal? Can it be stopped? The tank is in my livingroom and the constant clicking is going...
