Thank you guys for helping me out so much with this problem. Krullulon, I didnt mean you to take that you people thing the way you did. According to a reference book that I have, the toxic sea apples are the ones colored yellow touching red, mine is purple touching red. The link that Laura D has...

just to let you know "krullulon" the sea apple that I have is a non-toxic apple. The flower pot that I have in my system I have had since I started the system in Jan. The tangs do just well together. I had problems with worms in my sand, which is why I have the Horshoe, so the next time you make...

About a week ago I purchased a green carpet anemone. When I introduced it into my tank it looked good for a few days but it has just recently done something weird. It opens its mouth wide open and you can see its insides. Is this something that carpet anemones normally do or should I get ready...

I just bought a christmas tree coral that was attached to some LR. Little did I know that the rock came with a friend. I saw a crab that looks some what like the ones you will find on the beach all torn up by seagulls. I cant really take a picture because it is in a crevice in the rock. Will...

There should be a way to control the amount of water that goes through the overflow on the overflow. What type of overflow do you have?

The less bends in the hose that leads from the overflow to the sump the less gurgling noise you will hear. I had the same problem, after straightning the pipe, the noise disapeared

A few days ago I discovered small, thin worms all over my live rock. They were purple with green spots on their backs. Should I be worried about these things? Are they dangerous to my coral? I talked to my fish dealer and he had never heard of such a thing, so I was hopeing that some of you...

The is the best tank that I have seen in my life, It looks better than zoo aquariums!

Do you use R/O or RODI water purification. RODI works better at removing silicates than R/O which is the main cause to brown hair algae and other algeas. Also what type of declhorinator do you use than would also help the algae. What type of salt do you use because some have silicates in them...

I just replaced my old canister filter with a new wet/dry filter. After I did this my golden goby, yellow tang, and mushroom coral died. My christmas tree coral and brain coral shrivled up and look as though they have little chance of surviving. The water has become very white. Is there...

Hve you ever thought about hiding some of those wires and equipment so the tank would be relaxing to look at rather than a giant mess.

I have the same problem in my tank but I have finally gotten it under control. I purchased about 5 turbo snails and some different crabs that were just lying around my dealers tanks. Within about two days I saw results. With my corals I add an Additive called Coral Vital. It helps with the...

My tank ahs four powerheads keeping flow to the tank. It also has four PC lights with two Anctinics and two 10,000Ks. My sandbed is about three inches deep in most areas.

I was using a protien skimmer at first but I was getting to much air bubbles so I shut it off. The Only Additives are Kalkawasser, Calcium, and Iodine
