A couple days ago I received a box full of awesome frags in the mail from Ron. He only charged me for the box and cost of shipping! He threw in one that he knew I really wanted, too. How many vendors out there would be generous enough to do this? Ron is a really nice guy and I will be sure and...

So yesterday I dosed nopox for the first time ever... today I woke up to find that my one of my acros had RTN'd :'( Luckily not that deep water I got recently... But what did I do wrong? I did less than recommended, but was it still too much to start with? I'm not sure if I should continue...

I won this chalice in an IEMAS raffle... it's my only chalice and I'm not very knowledgeable on them, but I believe it's a Hollywood Stunner? Anyway, when I got it, it seemed as though it had dead skeleton and had started recovering but instead of growing back over that dead part, it had...

I found these for sale on eBay. 5 polyps for $19.99. They look waaaaaaaaaaaaay nicer than $4 per polyp zoas. Do you think they're Photoshopped or for realz?

Are they all deep water? If not, is there a way to know which ones are? I got this one in a trade and was just wondering about placement. I run a 6 bulb t5 fixture and I have it pretty high up and it seems to be doing ok but just want to make sure. I've only had it a little over a week. It...

I'm setting up my new GFO reactor and wondering, should I use the foam pads inside of it or leave them out and just use the plastic grids? Any help would be appreciated!

Recently the VP of the DFWMAS had a tank crash and couldn't figure out why things were going South, and fast! It turned out that it was a bad batch of Kent carbon that was recalled last year. There are so many things that can potentially go wrong in our reefs no matter how experienced in the...

Polyp in the center. Spot wasn't there a couple days ago.

I don't understand why since my tank move, montis keep dying in my tank but acros color up and do better than when I got them. I always thought montis were the easy SPS... I got some corals with my 240 upgrade that were in pretty bad shape from being ignored for quite a while. The only SPS...

I guess it's some type of nuisance algae, although it doesn't look like algae at all. It is all over the rocks that I got with the 240g upgrade along with bryopsis and some nasty, furry stuff, maybe GHA but not long and not bright green (dark swamp green almost slate colored). I would like to...

Anybody have three or know where I can get them?

Someone asked me if it was better to buy RO water from the grocery store or Nursery Water... I told him I thought distilled would be the best but I wanted to make sure... Am I right??? I gave him some rodi water last night but he only brought one 5g jug and already used 3g of that to bring his...

I got a bunch of LR with my new tank but it's infested with bryopsis and no telling what else... I would like to get rid of any possible pests before using it to start my new build but a lot of it has soft corals on it like ricordeas, asst cool mushrooms, Z's and P's, etc. There's also some...

Someone posted this on my local LA forum and thought I'd share it with y'all since there's been a lot of discussion about hippos being kept in nanos and picos and HLLE. As terrible and sad as it is about this fish and others like it, the fact is that it's happening again and again and I think...

Lately I have been hearing this gulping kind of noise coming from my tank but couldn't figure out what it was until today. It's my skimmer and each "gulp" is accompanied by a large bubble that comes up to the top inside the cone. What could be causing this? Is something wrong with my pump? It...

My blue tang LOVES it and of my 3 algae eaters, (foxface and Sailfin) he's usually the picky one but he can't get enough of this stuff and they won't touch it. They try it and then spit it out!

I need some Aquavitro Ions and can't find it anywhere around here or online. Let me know if anyone is selling it at MAX please, and if anyone is willing to buy it and ship it to me, I can PayPal in advance and would appreciate it so much!

The laws may be changing in regards to coral collection, coral fragging and even sharing. Imagine if you couldn't even give a frag to someone because it was against the law. Please read this: http://www.reefaddicts.com/content.php/385-Hobbyists-Needed-NOW-Read-on We are at cross roads with...

How many guys do I need to carry an 8x2x2? Anybody know approximately how much it would weigh?
