    When I clean my sponge filters, I use salt water. Why? Because I don't want to kill off the bacteria. Is that REALLY neccessary? Would washing off with cold tap water REALLY kill off the bacteria? Or is this an old wives tale? Any evidence in either direction?

    I personally do not have a pistol shrimp or a watchman gobie for that matter, but I love their relationship with one another. Of course most people seem to have a clown and anemone, which is also quite interesting. I was always curious....do the clowns get a really nice physical...

    26 bowfront I'm slowly (stinking budget!) getting pieces together to set up my tank. Just wondering if anyone has a decent submersible heater laying around that you would be willing to part with? I have a 26g tank, so I think a 100w would work... Let me know! Thanks, Casey

    I just spent three hours reading through the DSB myth thread and decided in all fairness to put up a pro DSB thread. Although I have not been in the hobby as long as many on here have.

    Any and all reccomendations would be appreciated! Tank (125 gallon) has been running for over a year now, but I have always struggled with higher than normal nitrate levels. I think the cause of this is the fact that I went with a mixture of crushed coral and sand bed. It is probably a 3"...

It is precipitated from ocean surface waters mainly by organisms (e.g., coral) that use it to make their shells and skeletons. In recent years, aragonite has...
