Since no one posts on my build thread anymore I thought I would start a new thread for my question. My tank currently looks like this.... My question is, At what point should I add a small clean up crew? I have diatoms everwhere. Can I add a small clean up crew? Will it be safe to add a clean...

I will be starting the initial stocking of my 180 in the next few weeks and am planning to start with the workhorses of the reef ... i.e. the cleanup crew and the janitorial staff. I have been thinking of the following list ... if anyone has any suggetions for additions, deletions, substitutions...

Hi everyone, I am looking to add a small (2-3") powder brown tang to my reef. Wondering what everyone thinks about it. I know it may eventually outgrow my 46 bow, but that is fine. Here's what I have: 1 Coral Beauty 1 Royal Gramma 1 Tank-raised Clown 1 Green Chromis (looking to get rid of...

Ive got southdown in my tank and was wondering if I should try to look into getting something to stir up my sb. I used to have a larger colony of amphipods when I had the larger grained sand/crushed coral but i dont see as much anymore. I dont think they can sift through the fine stuff either so...

Allright since GregT was nice enough to get this going for us, Lets talk about the fundamentals of a mantis tank, lighting, filtration, sand, rock, co-inhabitants, clean up crew's that won't get killed:D , glass or acryllic. As we will see, they are relativelly simple and easy setups especially...

Gang, I'm at a quandary and would appreciate some feedback. I have a 29G FOWLR that I'm getting ready to move into a 75. I'm planning to convert more to a mixed reef setup with the new tank. Thing is, I have a tiger tail cuke that I want to make sure it is well cared for in the new setup...

I am trying to decide what cleanup critters would be safe in my FOWLR tank. I have a 2-inch Blue Dot Puffer, 2.5 - Picasso Trigger, a 3-inch Hawkfish, and a Coral Beauty. None of the fish are overly aggressive, but they all like to eat. What kinds of cleanup critters would be safe(r)? 1...

I am going to start target feeding my clown and blood shrimp due to a problem with algae. Only maybe one piece of mysis per day (is that enough). What about the rest!?? Will they starve... I have a bunch of hermits, some asteras, some nassarius, and a tiger tail cucumber. Thank you!

What are the best plants and animals that I can purchase that will help keep water parameters near perfect and keep the sand and rocks clean from algae? Brian 30 gal 288 watts Power Compact

Hi everyone! Hope everyone is as excited as I am about Spring coming. Waking up to hear the birds chirping put's me in a good mood. Couple questions... My sand bed seems to have algae growing on it, kind of making it like a matt. The algae is green and brown and a little stringy looking. I...

I suspect this is a birds and bees thing, if not what?

Ok, I don't know what happened, but it appears my tiger tail cuke has split in two. I was taking out all my rock to put pvc support for the rock on the dsb, I picked up the piece the cuke was on, gently picked it up, looked at the cuke closer and realized there were two. I got this guy when he...

Hi all, I have a 28 gallon bowfront with an attached refugium. The dimensions of the tank are 24" X 12-15" wide. The way I stacked the rocks, I'd say there is about 60% of the sand exposed. Is this a big enough area for a small cuke? I'm tired of dirty looking sand. I don't have (or want)...

Owner of LFS tells me sandsifting stars are fine for DSB. I've read that they are harmful. He tells me not to believe everything I read. I tell him I read it online. He tells me not to believe everything I read online. Do I trust his word or stop patronizing his establishment?

its time to add some more clean up type critters to my 125... when i setup the tank about a year ago i added about 40 snails and 4 fighting conchs...i also have a serpant star...i have 150#s of LR... what else should i add to help keep the sandbed clean?... i have been battling flatworms and...

I aquired a Tiger Tail cuke about a month ago. I think it was on the sand bed all of 5 minutes before heading to the rocks. For the last 2 weeks, it's been hanging around by one of the powerheads (intake covered, of course!)on the glass in the upper corner of the tank. Is this normal? Should I...
