    6 line wrasse

    I have seen threads were the people claim their six line does everything in the tank and mows the lawn besides. It is avery hardy fish. Maybe to hardy. Hopefully it will show up in a couple of days or weeks. They usually don't take Sh.. from any fish even a much larger one. Good luck

    I thought it was a duncan >.>

    I wouldn't guarantee it, but if the elegance opened up like that in your tank, it is very happy. if you don't have fish that will pick on it, think about keeping it. stings nearby corals

    Cyano- The black out. Or Red Slime Remover? Thoughts.

    black out will help. What is the root of the problem? Maybe look at a clean up crew. I had a bad case of cyano about a year and a half ago. Not enough flow and overfeeding. Tried red slime and it cut back but never completely got rid of it. After about $150.00 spent on Red Slime, I added more...

    Tank Crash Help

    Sorry about the loss. Has to be discouraging. You might try to add another circuit (breaker) so if in the future something fails, it will only be partial. I have 4 different circuits 1 for the chiller and heater, 1 for the lights, 1 for the circulating pump and 1, for 6 Koralias. With all...

    New Set up build! 150G+ 100G sump+ 50G fuge+ Frag tank+ mangrove tank+ seahorse tank!

    Your planning is better than mine. I had the same idea, but two and a half years later everything is still "outside". Never got around to enclosing everything. Worked out good because my mangroves are prospering. Don't use a skimmer.

    New Set up build! 150G+ 100G sump+ 50G fuge+ Frag tank+ mangrove tank+ seahorse tank!

    You may want to add some turbo snails to your sump. You should start seeing an algae bloom outside because of new tank parameters and the sump outside. The good thing being that it may not necessarily go to the DT. Think about insulating the outside equipment. It will help with the...

    The first time you buy something from a "hobbyist" and bring home an unwanted critter, please tell me how much you have saved. I have purchased from sponsors on this site as well as lfs. I don't want to lose everything in my tank to save a couple of dollars. On the other hand there are...

    External return pump vibrating loud! Why????

    is the pump cavitating? (sucking in air) or the inlet is restricted. there is always the possibility something is in the volute by the impeller. good luck
