Getting out of the hobby. I have everything you need, although the lights probably need replaced. I have over 150 lbs of live rock and a fish or two. The filter is 30 gal - I can only attach one pic but I can send more. I love my tank - just don't have time for it any longer. Asking $1,000 but will consider other offers.

I am sellling mine if your interested. Its beautiful (oak i think) and i have had it for abt two years. I am going to take a better pic tonight, but let me know if you rinterested. I am moving (it sucks)

Just started UV to get rid of ICH - Heard there are cons. Anyone have any views

not sure i get the can of worms reference. Can you elaborate?

Thanks for all the advice. appreciate it!!! - One other thing - I also just got a UV to try and get rid of a nasty ich strain that wont go away. Will that kill all the natural food (micro organisms) in the water?

I just bought a nice blue squamosa (3 inches) and its doing great in my quarantine. I feed cyclopeeze and the green photoplankton. Is there more i should be feeding. I have heard some people feed them brine directely by seperating them in the tank. Any tips wouls be appreciated.

Ever since i saw that freaking picture of the blue carpet that won this month I have been hunting one. Its beautiful. Anyone have any suggestions. Anyone have any precautions (ie are they dangerous?)

Got the same thing on my end. I am way high on calcium/Alk and I think its the freaking cold weather. I used some aveeno afterwards and it made it better. Now i keep doing that and its working pretty well

I am about 6 months in with my 150 gal. the only advice i can give you is stay away from damsels that you wont want later on. I threw some cheap ones in to see if they would hold up and now i cant catch them anymore.

I have 2 choc chip starfish in may tank and I have heard they can destroy corals. Anyone else ever heard of this?

I missed the first and will do my best to get to this one

Did you by any chance pick up that LR at Marine Scene. I got some there last week, but my sponge is only growing on the bottom out of the lights. I was actually excited about it

not too sure what its exactly made of. Bought it at the fish place in Lancaster PA, Its very porous though. GUess it cant hurt to add more LR

I began my tank with live rock and regular rock (couldnt afford enough live). It has been running for about 3/4 months and is getting healthier but nitrates are high. My question is will the rest of the rock become cured so that evantually my nitrates should start to come down. If not i was considering switching the rock with live rock. any thoughts.

Thanks to you both - My after sponge is always nasty and i clean every few days. I really like the live rock instead bio ball technique - i may try it unfortunatly may be quite a task based on my setup
