    Tomini missing

    I know I saw him last week. Then I worked my 3 12 hour shifts, so my kids feed the tank then. I don't remember seeing him yesterday when I did a deep clean of the tank and had the canopy open for a few hours. :(. Either he decomposed while we were out of town for Thanksgiving and the neighbor...

    Zoas on return

    I have zoa's overtaking my return. I have zoa's overtaking my tank, also, but this is inhibiting flow. They're also causing weird currents and disrupting the sand oddly. I've taken the return pipe out and soaked it overnight, outside, in 50/50 water/vinegar. It's pretty cold out, as well...

    GSM biting off BTA tentacles

    I got a new anemone a few days ago and have had it in an acclimation box at the front of my tank where my Gold Stripe Maroon Clownfish usually is. Today I moved the anemone onto it's new (brand spanking new) rock and within 5 minutes the GSM started attacking it. I thought about putting the bta...

    Sick Clown

    My big clown is sick. I've had her for probably 6 years, she's one of the first fish I bought. The other clown in this tank, a 20g, is fine, but the YWG is MIA. I fed them last night and all seemed fine. I did not notice anything wrong. What is this, and what should I do about it? She's eating...

    What's up with this zoa?

    Just noticed this Halle Berry doing something weird. Is it splitting? Do zoa's do that? Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

    Sediment filter

    Just swapped out my sediment filter on my RODI. Last time was July 16th. Probably should have done it sooner, but it wasn't too bad till recently. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

    Cleaning Vinegar from Dollar Tree?

    I needed vinegar today, so I grabbed it from Dollar Tree. I needed to soak the power head I use to mix saltwater, which had frozen up. I put quite a bit of the vinegar in a bucket with water, and it foamed up BIG. Is this stuff safe to use on aquarium stuff? Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

    Coralcide

    My huge favia? ate my bubblegum frag. [emoji24]. My Halle berries are growing over the bubblegum Digi I have mounted on my rock, and luckily one of my fish fragged it for me. So I mounted the piece on a frag plug and stuck it in the sand. It was doing great! [emoji24]. I have Joe's juice and...

    Transitioning Lyretail Anthias

    I bought 2 female lyretails a week ago, and my previous sole Lyretail is starting to transition to male. The darker picture is from a couple of months ago, and the other two are today. Notice the dark tips on the pectoral find and the dark blotches on the head. The body is getting blotchy also...

    How to fight back zoas?

    Another What's This?

    So I'm sure it's sponge. It's in the darker areas under the overflow. But I thought it might be, in a cool universe, some sort of egg pod? The blob on the left has black spots in it. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

    Looking for external overflow box

    Does anyone know where I could get the external box to an overflow kit? If prefer not to have to drill the tank, so it needs to have only one bulkhead from the tank. Also, I'd like at least 2 drain bulkheads. Thanks! Carrie Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

    Corner Catharsis

    I acquired a 54 gallon corner tank from a fellow member. I plan to use it for predator/aggressive type fish. Maybe a dwarf moray, puffers, or dwarf lions. The previous owner was very crafty in drilling and creating a sump that would fit. Today I've cleaned it up and would like to run some...

    Melanurus bed

    Wow! I was just standing next to my tank, 30 seconds before lights out, when an explosion of sand occurred. I figured it was the melanurus because he's the only one who would disturb that much sand, and when I looked around, he was nowhere to be seen. But the where is crazy. He just buried...

    Thinking about a chiller

    Just set up my upgraded tank and temps are 79.6, with cabinet doors open and fans going. And I still have equipment to add. My tank is 6ft, 18" deep, and about 22.5" high, 50g sump, and 20" long frag tank. What size chiller do y'all think I need? And does anyone have one they might sell...

    Harvey 120 to 140 rebuild

    HH has given me a chance to get a new tank. I was becoming concerned about the seams of my third hand tank, it wasn't drilled, and the sides we're scratched pretty bad. I was able to order a Planet Aquarium through The Fish Bowl and More during their One Year Relocation sale (thanks Carlos!)...

    Do you think he'll eat it all?

    I was thinking of getting an Acropora crab to help with the algea that accumulates at the top of my bird's nests, but maybe I don't have to. 😄
