  1. Algae problem

    I agree with pretty much everything that has been suggested already. I will add one more thing. You might be overfeeding your tank. Start feeding once every other day and see if things get better. Also like others have suggested do weekly 15-20% water changes. Good husbandry habits are so...
  2. Help me choose compatible fish for a 75gal reef tank.

    You should definitely buy a Foxface Lo. They are probably my favorite fish. They can camouflage themselves against your live rock! They are very graceful and should be reef safe if fed well. I also recommend you add less fish in the beginning. Always wait at least 2 weeks before adding a new...
  3. Powerhead Help

    In case you have no idea what MP10 or MP40 means, they are recommending Ecotech Marine powerheads which I also highly recommend. But if you can't afford the best, Hydor powerheads should suffice. Whenever I introduce new corals into my tank I always move the powerheads as far away as I can. I...

  5. DIY Skimmer Auto Skimmer Cleaner

    What are you trying to build? A device that automatically cleans your skimmer? Or prevents your skimmer cup from overflowing?

    I have to say the first zero edge tank I ever saw inspired me to get back into the hobby...
  7. Desktop tank opinions

    Aqueon Evolve 8 leaks So my Aqueon Evolve 8 leaks in the back, had to return it to PetSmart, but the one I exchanged it for also leaks. But at least it leaks a lot less, so I just bought some silicone and patched it up. It's a nice tank for the money, the acrylic is pretty thick too. I believe...

  9. Elos Aquastudio New Jersey

    I'm surprised they sell livestock... For some reason I'm surprised they sell livestock, thought they'd need livestock to show off their tanks but that they would not be for sale...anyway, I think my next tank will be an Elos if my wife approves... :) And I don't think the company thought the...
  10. Sump layout?

    Sounds good... That is exactly how my sump is set up on my 125 gallon zero edge tank. Has been working well for me. I also have 3 filter socks set up right before entry into the refugium section.

    Try bluezooaquatics.com I've bought three corals from them.
  12. Clown has a white spot

    Could that be his third stripe? It looks like part of a stripe. Maybe it's growing in? Has that spot always been there? I have 2 mocha clowns and they are not "natural", meaning they do not exist in the wild. So I'm not surprised your clown does not look like your traditional clownfish...
  13. Clown has a white spot

    Do you have a better picture? Can't really tell from your picture what it is? Is he eating? And how long has the spot been there? I can recommend some Ick medication if you want, but I want to make sure we identify the possible disease first.
