Hatchling

Hatchling (3/13)

  1. I have never heard of an ich treatment lasting quite that long although I will continue reading up on it and correct my problems. As for the shark he was only temporary and was going somewhere else very quickly. The 55g has a 30g refugium on it where all the live rock is stored so the lion fish has the entire 55g to himself. Although I am moving him very soon no one would accept him at the time and they were going to toss him into the ocean. I just do not see an aquarium lion fish making it in the polluted ocean so I think I saved his life. He may be a little anger for a few weeks but at least he isnt floating up on shore as I see it I guess. Pictures I can throw on in a few hours.
  2. I wrote a very in depth article on setting up n aquarium stand the best and safest way. It is a must read before starting the hobby. http://nspeel.hubpages.com/hub/DIY-Setting-Up-The-Aquarium-Stand
  3. I have wrote numerous articles about saltwater aquariums and just wanted to share a few with you all. I have been a member for awhile although I may not be well known I wanted to put my name out there a little more, thank you.

  4. As for the Anenome's themselves there are 3 of which at different levels of the tank... I have seen each one do this atleast 1x in the last week... they all have been in the tank less than 2 weeks... but nothing was changed with the tank no sudden changes
  5. Is this just Anenome waste? i read numerous articles on ppl never having seen an anenome doing this after decades... is this maybe that i watch my fish to much? or is this bad and shouldnt be happening
  6. I was wondering if you guys use turf scrubbers, If not why? and if so what are the +/- of keeping it... I DIYed my own ill add picture in a minute
  7. Do any of you know what species starfish this is?
  8. Where do u pick these drums up at? also can i get a related picture of how u guys use it / where its set up
  9. I have one volitian lionfish (10in) & Dwark Fu-Chic lionfish or coralfish (3in) and 1 butterfly (2in)... I do not plan on buying more fish for a couple years.. My lionfish gets to aggressive towrds new fish... So i resorted to corals, and i did impulse buy but Mr. Coral had to good of a deal to pass up so i went with pics listed below... I still need a ALK & Magn testing kits but that will be got next time i make it to LPS As for these Salifert tests this im about to google Hopefully I picked good corals i dont want to see anything die... or git nipped at do you think these are at risk of butterfly fish
  10. 55g aquarium, 45 lbs liverock, 600gph powerhead x2 + Intake Pump (water movement), 2 Heaters, Protien Skimmer, 2 Lionfish & 1 Butterfly fish
  11. Hey i got a question for all you hardcore and even softcore coral keepers... What testing kits do you have handy, and how often do you test... I spend approx. 4hrs a day just watching it and wanna make sure i have every corner covered b4 turning it fully... i ordered from mr coral and i took his advice and got afew starter corals, but thats no reason for them to die So i recently bought a Entek RO 6 stage filter w. lifetime warranty, for all water changes and top offs... im looking into a calc reactor but need to research it alot further b4 i even attempt to use it sounds confusing and dont wanna orderdose my tank... Looking for essential & useful items for coral keeping, and testing
  12. I have been having a similar problem (except my skimmer cant sit inside my refugium) so i keep checking and one day it drained like 6g onto my floor... I think its doing better now but yesterday i looked and it was overflowing but just rolling back into the skimmer and out into tank... luckily
  13. this 20g tank could i get a picture? and you covering shipping, if so ill take serval things
  14. can i put a frag tank like this beautiful master piece in my refugium... ps very nice bro keep it up i wanna start soon
