    Finally hung it

    Purchased a Radion light about 4 weeks ago, finally hung it above the tank, it is a bit "ghetto" but definitely super bright, had to dial the intensity down to 60% to keep from blinding the fish.

    Naso Tang

    I picked up a pretty good sized Naso on Sunday, ~4 inches long. Great looking fish, but I just can't seem to get it to eat. It generally hides in the back in some rock work, but does come out occasionally, seems super skittish. I have never had issues with tangs before, usually they eat in a...

    Sealing a tank

    I noticed a small amount of silicon seal is loose in the corner of my tank, about 4 inches from the top, about 1/2" long. Any sealants I can use that won't force me to empty the tank? No leaks and it is only a small amount? Frag glue? D
