This is what the tank looked like when I had the corals etc

I got Energy Savers to give me a contract for Electric at 5.6c a KWH. (gas which is incidental here is at 56c a Therm). The problem is Con Edison and their rip off delivery charges as well as the huge taxes we pay in NYS....including a 'temporary surcharge' for the last three years

Hello, I used to have a 'reef tank' and after two years re-set up the tank with live sand, some rocks..26 gallon with refugium (from before). Ay suggestions as what would be good stocking fish for the tank. I dont plan of course on keeping more than 5 small fish. Mario

I had a clownfish love for 9 years and a Royal Gramma for 8 years. No idea why they died but they each stopped eating two days before and seemed listless. (kidney failure maybe?) The blue damsel lived for 6 years. M

I remove the clams that are declining and put them in aseperate container and feed them the phyto. All they do is 'cough' up a few dark green pellets. They however seem to rejuvenate a little I must admit. I am afraid I will be making a 'casket' for them in a few days.

Ok. I have had these things for about 2 years or so...and over the last 6 months, they just decline. No idea why...its frustrating Especially as other animals are thrving...(

Any help here from the experienced aquarists? (Size 3 inches and above

Here is a reply from Kent Marine....very interesting: If this is the super dKH buffer that you were using, it is solely Sodium Bicarbonate (baking soda), Sodium Carbonate, and Sodium Tetraborate. Depending on the water chemistry in the aquarium, the amount of this product used can either...

Thanks for the advice 1 I used live sand-aragonite. 2.The hair algae was probably from the ammonoia spike from the two clams that died in the tank. I did 50% RO water change two weeks ago, and they seemed to be dying off. 3. I have three itty bitty fish and feet once every three days..Prime...

Thanks. The first few that died were in the tank for about 2 years and grew. However, one thing I did notice is when I started adding more to the tank (ebay.com is addicting), the more sensitive ones started dying off. Did you say starving? I thought clear MH lighted water was what they needed...

Sorry forgot to upload pic

Thanks for all your help. This past weekend, I removed all the old sand, complete water change (RO water), scubbed down the rocks and removed any hair algae from the sides of the tank. Low and behold, the pH keeps dropping from 8.3 after I add B-IONIC to 7.9 a few hours LATER...unbelievable...
