    Babies ? Can you identify this??

    It looks like I have some sort of new pink sponge in my tank with a few large entries ways, and other small vents.  There is a ton of activity that might be pods, but some of the "pods", seem to look like small fish fry.  Has anyone seen anything like this?

    Hardy San Cleaners

    Can someone recommend some sand cleaners for a reef tank? I would like something hardy, cheap, lives more than a year or two, and can deal with some red cyno build up on sand or patches of brown algae. Also it's a reef tank, with inverts, and plenty of live rock so the creature(s) would need...

    when the xenia heads/hands become nubs, and lots of nubs, does that mean a fish is eating them, or is that an issue with water quality?

    sump setup - how to optimize?

    This is the sump i have. Instead of bioballs I put in live rock that gets water trickled over it. http://dealofday.com/wp-content/thumbnails/112324.jpg In the middle chamber I have my external reef octopus sump return that creates a descent amount of flow back towards the waterfall plus air...

    Purigen in Main tank

    The seachem bag on the outlet on my purigen cannister came off spilling a descent amount of purigen in the tank. Is that a big deal? Will the purigen eventually settle in the sand and just become part of the live sand? What will happen? Thanks!!!

    reef octopus silencing

    Is there a way to quiet a reef octopus external skimmer. It has a little clear plastic tall petri cup where the air comes appears to be sucked in. Perhaps it's the nature of the beast that it will be making a sucking noise, straw slurping noise. Or maybe there is a clever way to quiet it...

    purigen and flow

    Guys, I have had purgien for a year, but probably never full understood it. I tried to get it flowing like jelly fish in a cannister and could never get the flow right without loosing grains out the out tube. Also when I put it in a bag and just dump it in my sump, doesn't the water just go...

    leaking bulkhead

    I have a leaking bulkhead between outlet and acrylic sheet. Previously a lot of silicon glue, i think, held it, but now it's pealing off where it's leaking. Should I just apply more silicon glue to where it is leaking and hope that holds it. Any ideas? Thank you!!!

    Do you all have a recommendation on where to get these bulbs? I run mostly xenia, kenya trees, mushrooms, hammers, and toadstools. Nothing too exciting. In the past I stocked up on petcos clearance $8 zoo med bulbs. But now they are all out. ATIs would not be out of the question if that is...

    Chipped glass corner bottom-back-right

    On my 200 gallon the corner chipped off in the shape of a prism. [Like a piece of a triforce :)]. I don't really know how long it's been chipped off. It appears to not compromise the tank holding water. Should I consider filling in the chipped glass piece with something to prevent future...
