    I ran out of my normal brine shrimp eggs and my backup eggs are not hatching (I ordered these off amazon but they had good reviews). I am needing live brine immediately.

    Looking to rehome a discus

    Anyone keeping discus? I have a 4 or 5" turquoise red I would like to rehome. I'm not looking to make any money, but would like it to go to someone already keeping discus, so it can be part of a group and receive the proper care. I've had this fish for several years, used to have a group of them...

    Adding a BTA

    I am supposed to be getting a new bubble tip anemone this weekend (my first). How do you add these to an established reef? I have read they like to move around until they find a spot they like. But when they do this, don't they harm other corals in the process? How do you prevent this from...

    lighting question

    How does 2 18 watt t5 bulbs compare to 2 40 watt pc bulbs? Because don't the t5 actually put out more light per watt then power compacts or how does that work? I see it says t5 high output has nearly double the output per lumen. Does that mean it would really put out around 70 watts?

    how to remeove silicone from glass?

    I got an aquarium from someone who had siliconed the sides of it. I am trying to remove it. I scraped it off with a razor blade, but its not a clean scrape. There is still a film of silicone that I cannot get off. Is there something I can use to get it off? Something that would not harm fish...

    captive bred seahorses

    I used to have a group of dwarf seahorses for about a year. I gave them up when I was hospitalized during pregnancy because I knew no one in my family would cultivate BBS for them every day. I have read claims on different websites that captive bred seahorses (not dwarf seahorses) and pipefish...

    I recently upgraded to metal halide lighting and am wanting to start dabbling in SPS. I acquired a birdsnest frag last week and it is doing really well- polyps are fully extended, good color, and pale on the very tips showing new growth. I am wanting to add a few more frags but don't know which...

    what can be used as a stand?

    What can support a 34 gallon aquarium? I don't want to buy a new stand, and I can't seem to find a used one for sale by itself. Can a TV stand be used, since its made for heavy weight? What about dressers that are solid wood and well made?

    I am getting a new tank this week, a Solana, and I was wondering what those of you who have them think about them. I am upgrading from a JBJ nano-cube,and I've didn't make any upgrades to it. So, a lot of the things included in the Solana I have never had before, such as a protein skimmer. I was...

It looks like a single brown thread coming out of his mouth, then it splits off on the end with some fuzzy things hanging off the end (this is the end thats not in the mouth). Wish...

They are the very small, rust colored ones I hear people talking about on the forum a lot. Well, today, I saw one that is deffinitly a different kind. It is way bigger- almost a...

    filtration advice

    My 24 gallon nano cube been up for about 7 months now. Two days ago I removed the two big rectangular sponges from my back chambers because of detritous buildup and possibly nitrate buildup.
