I suspect it's a lighting issue. Mine was a vivid yellow when I got it. Even though mine is mid way up in a tank lit by 250 watt MH it is somewhat darker than it was when I got it. These corals do like intense light.

I would avoid carrying junk. Nothing turns a customer off faster than buying something that was recommended by a LFS employee then finding out that it doesn't work as advertised. Example: Powersweep powerheads, magic potions (Algone).

Works for me. Pretty cool. Is this a side view we're seeing?

The title pretty much says it all. I just got a pair of Gemini pumps and want to put them on alternating timers to cycle every thirty minutes. Will the pumps last with the constant on/off? TIA.

You're probably ok if you're not going to have the tank more than 1/3 full. I had a 55 AGA and the top center brace broke while the tank was full. The sides bowed out about 1/4 inch.

It's practically impossible to kill mushrooms so any cut you make will work. They do slime pretty bad so glue will not stick to them. The least frusterating way to prop shrooms is to put the cuttings into a Tupperware bowl with some crushed coral. Put the bowl in an area of the tank with low...

Hi Ermin, I tripod is very useful for taking macro shots. Other than that you don't really need anything else. I do have a Tiffen +17 closeup lens but that is used only for extreme closeups, like a couple of inches. It allows the camera to focus at a closer range than it normally would. I use...
