    I have a 40 watt Aqua UV Sterlizer that my brother in law gave me. Not hooked up as I have "heard" they really don't help and the bulbs are expensive. But I have high phosphate levels and I am wondering if it could help? I will need to order a new bulb and the inner tubing is dirty and I...

    We have a great LFS, and the only thing that the lady there said that disagrees with the general body of information on TRT is to use Phytoplankton twice a week. Our dosage is a teaspoon.

    When corals are "dying" does this promote the growth of algae. I am starting to get some hair algae on some of my rocks. I have several mushrooms that seem to be wasting away, as well as an open brain. All my other corals (polyps, candy cane, frogspawn) are doing fine. I know if you leave a...

    Algae in my tank has gone berzerk! It used to be contained by the army of snails, but the army of crabs ate them. So I got a new army of snails who don't seem to be the hungry type. It's green, it's red. It's everywhere. Help?

    Every coral I buy in the store and bring home to my tank slowly looses it's bright vibrant color. It stays healty and grows but looks very dull after a couple weeks. I am guessing that I don't have enough light. Would insufficient lighting cause corals to loose their color? Or is it...

    What are some conditions that could make my zenias look so miserable? They seem shriveled up and lethargic.:( All the other softies seem to be doing just fine. I haven't tested for anything yet, but I am probably due for a water change. I'm going to do one later tonight and see what happens.
