I have a 55gal tank up and running for about 8 months now. Its my first salt tank and it's given me a lot of trouble but i'm starting to get the hang of it. Its tankmates consist of: 2 firefish gobies 2 ocellaris clowns 2 green chromis 1 yellow damsel 1 yellow eyed kole tang (the newest addition...

I have been considering adding a brittle or serpent starfish to my tank for a while now, but can't decided. I was originally going to add a brittle, because i think they look better than the serpents, although I've read that they can go after fish, and inverts, especially green brittles...

My fortunes have taken a turn for the worse. (That's life as a contract employee for ya!:bawling:) I am going to have to sell my 14g biocube and all its inhabitants. I'm giving my coworker first pick since then I'll at least be able to visit my creatures and I've become pretty attached to...

Hi Everyone, This is my first saltwater tank. I have had many fresh in the past but decided to go saltwater, which I love. This tank I got from a friend and has been runnig for about 5 years. He didn't have time to keep up with it so I took it off his hands. It definatly needed some TLC. It has...

Hello to all, I am a newbie to the reef tank in all aspects. This is my first saltwater tank and I am hooked. I think the last fish tank i had was when i was 10 and i never took care of it. Good thing I went straight to a semi-big complicated tank. But everything has been going so easy and...

Ok, the time has come and I can't hold on to these tanks I love any longer if I'm going to get moved to Canada. I'm going to start with selling the LR, then the fish and critters ('cause I can't catch them with the rock in the way and I don't have a large container to move anything into), and...

I'm trying hard to get myself ready to move in the near future, and any way I look at it, the tank just won't survive the trip. When I get to where I'm going, I'll start over with a bigger set-up. Until then this is what I have for sale: 45 Gallon glass tank 20 gal custom sump metal stand...

Spotted my red serpent starfish mangling a snail a couple hours ago....what caught my eye was the crab on TOP of the serpent star, then I noticed that the serpent had a snail underneath it....I only assume the serpent was sucking the life out of the snail at the time, and the crab was looking...

Ok, so I am "allowed" to use my 180 in the living room. We've decided that the living room carpet can be sacrificed :) I've cleaned out the tank, here is a "before" picture. I'll have to reinforce the stand and fix the canopy to open in the front. (stand and canopy I'm going to use aren't in the...

I need help from more "experienced" hobbyist to assist me in getting a game plan together on solving my hair algae problem. My signature line should have a link to my tank setup, lighting, critters, and filtration information. I've spent a lot of time reading, changing water (RO/DI), turning out...

I'd like to take out & replace the top layer of my crushed arg. substrate. It catches too much detritus & grows some funky colors visible in the lower layers. What type/brand/grain size are people using? I have a 90g mixed reef with pretty good flow, but would like some finer substrate...
