Hi All, Been out of salt water game for a while, well had a tank for the last several years, just not been active and practically forgot the names of all my corals. Can someone give me a name and possibly value to this one? It's about 5 to 6.5 inches long and probably about 3 to 4 inches in...

Hi all, I started out with one great orange ricordea, but then it kept growing and growing and suddenly I have 4 or 5 orange rics and the original gets up to about 4 inches in diameter. The others are spreading out and killing my orange monti. Is there any easy way to remove / move the orange...

Has anyone here used the Iodine Hanna Checker or the Milwaukee Iodine Photometer? I have a Seachem test for iodine / iodide and it's a bit of a PITA and is difficult to read the results (clear or light blue). I can't seem to find any reviews on these photometers and not even sure they would work...

Does anyone have a good way to move a green bubble tip anemone? My has finally settled into a crevice, but unfortunately he is killing my Duncan and a bunch of zoas. [smilie=angry.gif] I currently have a maxijet 1200 with the power head attachment on it pointing directly at him. That's...

Hello DFWMAS members, I got into the saltwater aquarium hobby about 3 or 4 years ago. I moved to the DFW area about about 6 years ago and am about to head back to CA for my nieces graduation in So Cal in a couple weeks. Just wondering if there are any LFS or any other salt trade wholesalers in...

Hi Guys, I'm getting ready to start my 1st LED mod. Going to start with my small reef tank (37g column, 30w x 12d x 22t). I am considering going with a dimable 24 LED DIY kit, but also thinking about adding 2 to 4 red and green (or other color) LEDs. I 've heard great things about Steve's LEDs...

I've got both a single BRS reactor for running Biopellets and a dual BRS reactor for GFO and Carbon. I've been running both with Maxijet 1200 pumps for 9+ months and just don't think that a MJ1200 is powerful enough. Supposedly 295GPH. I've been considering upgrading to a Mag 3 or Rio 1400...

Hi all, I just noticed these white strands, some on the front glass and some others on a section of tonga branch. Anyone know what they might be? Hopefully the pics upload okay...

Hi Everyone, I've got a 29 gal Biocube that has a bad case of Dinoflagelites (brown slime / snot with air bubbles). I read that raising PH to 8.5 or 8.6 is one of the best ways to get rid of this stuff. I mixed up a tiny batch of kalkwasser mix earlier today and plan to start dosing manually...

Hi guys, I acquired about 100 lbs of live sand with a tank I bought many months ago. The live sand has been sitting in my garage the whole time, through the 100+ degree Texas summer. One container is and ice chest and still actually has water in it. The other larger container of sand lost its...

Hello Everyone, I just got a new Aqueon 92 gallon corner aquarium. I didn't like the look of their stand, so I've decided to build my own. Does anybody have any good links or other information about building a corner stand. Most stuff I've found online is just for standard square or rectangular...
