OK So here's a question, I have a 225 gal reef tank and I'm really considering adding a 6" majestic or Blue Face angel to my reef. I do have plenty of soft and hard corals, polyps as well as 2 beautiful 6" clams that I'd hate to put in jeopardy. I've been researching on the net and have seen...

Thanks, I did notice it picking up rather large rocks and moving them. Thanks for the info

Does anyone have a picture of a Queen Conch they can post? I just received a Queen Conch and a Fighting Conch from eTropicals. They were both about 3/4" (small?) when I put them in the tank. I haven't seen them since(I guess they are in the sand bed?) Anyway, I was expecting something...

Just bought 2 used MH hamilton pendants with the enclosed ballasts contained in the pentant. I need to replace the bulbs asap and want to go with 400 Watt 6500K - Iwasaki or 400 Watt 10000K - Iwasaki. The problem I have is, how can I tell if my pendants use a 400 watt of a 250 watt bulb? Can...

I have a 200gal reef tank containing LR, DSB, corals and reef fish. I made the mistake of not listening to all you experienced reefers and I didn't get a DI/RO water filter thinking I was saving a few bucks. Well, now I have a pain and have to deal with a bunch of stringy red algae and it seems...

I got 100lbs of live rock from Gulf View. Dale was a pleasure to work with and he sent exactly the sizes I requested. Needless to say, it was about the best live rock I ever got. I'll be placing another order soon. As for the live sand. I got 10lbs from Gulf View as a seed. I like to get small...

Well, I finally caught the Mantis Shrimp. I was persistant with the coke bottle trap and it finally worked. I'll be posting a picture of him soon. Thanks for all the tips. Bruce

Can you tell me what the X-terminator is, how it works and where to get it. Thanks

I have a small problem. I found a mantis shrimp in my 200gal. I've tried the coke bottle trap with no avail. Are these guys so smart that they don't go in the traps? I did a search on mantis but was wondering if you guys have any other ideas for trapping. Also, will a mantis shrimp harm...
