Oh dear fellow reefer above are you serious really? Here is the problem as I see it. You buy coral to either sell or to trade. If I were investing in crap coral then I would expect crap in return, however it is not what I keep. I am well aware what they are going for in stores, so to be...

My entire colony is about 70 give or take a few that my snails are currently in the process of annoying. Eric, I would be happy to trade with you, I have no clue what they are going for on this forum, honestly Im not on much. Im going off of what I know stores are selling them for. I would love...

Thank you :) They exploded....seriously fastest thing growing in my tank. Started with 2 less than a year ago. Lost count on how many I have now...

I have a decent sized little colony of Blue eyed Blondies that I would like to part with. They go for about $40/polyp in stores, I'm parting with mine at $30. Realistically however I am not really looking for money, what I want is more zoas. So I am open for a trade. Currently I have red...

What are you looking to trade for?

I had it in my 30 gal before, never seemed to bother anything much although it grew like a weed and ate threw my calcium pretty quickly.

Where are you getting your zoas from? Could it be a problem you are encountering with the mother colonys? My zoas grow at a pretty rapid rate and the only thing that I put in my tank with any regularity is phytofeast and everything loves it, fish and coral alike

All algae is fed by something, you have to figure out the kind of algae you have before you can figure out whats causing your issue. What are all of your levels at? When was the last time you did a water change? How old are your lights? Daily growth of algae is normal but if you are having a...

Argued with my lights

Honestly some more info would be great. What size is your tank, what size are the fish how long have you had them are they eating etc etc??? Ich can be caused by a lot of things and tangs are susceptible to it more then other fish however a lot of things can be a contributing factor to them...

Honestly I would do a little research. This is just me but generally a persons posts tell you a lot about the person. If he has a tank build thread or has a thread in the showcase, have a look. Zoas are pretty hard to kill. Ive had some serious swings in my tank when I was in my 30 gal and what...

Man those are big, emerald crabs eat them but Im not sure that size there is a emerald crab in town that could take that on haha. Seriously you need to get a siphon out and start removing them. Its either that or you live with them and from here on out when you see them starting to grow you...

I would think if you would like to stabilize the swings in your tank a bit, put a ATO on it. It will stabilize your salinity at the very least. We all have evap but with a nano you see it so much faster. As long as your levels are stable, the only swing you should really be having is with the...

On a 12 gallon tank?? Honestly you are running a nano tank with a fuge....you dont really need one. I ran a 30 gallon on nothing more then power heads and a skimmer with rare problems. You seem to share the same problem my husband has and that would be trying to complicate a simple thing. With a...
