    Where did everyone go?

    Hi all, I've been out of the reefing hobby for several years now, but years ago when I was an avid reefer, I used this forum quite a bit. It was bustling at the time. There were tons of new posts every day in the marketplace for instance. We're did everyone go? Has everyone moved to social media...

    Peppermint shrimp survival

    Hi all - in the past I had bought a peppermint shrimp and after about two weeks he went missing... never found his carcass or anything. All of my fish are less than 2 inches, I have a false perc, 3-bar damsel, yellow tail damsel, six line wrasse. Would it be the case that one of these fish...

    boxless silent overflow?

    Hi All - does anyone have any ideas for a silent overflow without using a box (preferably PVC only). I intend to run an emergency drain but I feel like it will be difficult to obtain surface skimming while not sucking down a lot of air.. even when using a ball or gate valve on the primary...

    Found the culprit!

    I've been bummed the past week because my favorite acan was losing tissue. It was growing like a weed and all of my other corals were doing well, so I found it odd that it was losing tissue. I couldn't tell if it was receding due to water params or if something was just picking at it. Once I...
