Can anyone recommend a good schooling reef fish. One that is colorfu and does not harm the corals and produces lilltle waste? Thanks.

I am interested in adding a school of fish to my 120 reef tank. Can anyone suggest a reef fish that can be kept as a school in a reef tank? Thanks

In the past few days, I have noticed that there are some chunks of my colt coral missing. I am not sure if something is eating it or if it is just unhealthy, but I would bet that something is eating it. One of the branches is just barely hanging on and I found one on the sand bed this morning...

I have some anthelia (waving hand coral) in my tank that is starting to grow like seaweed. I would like to cut it down some but I think I remember reading somewhere that if you cut these that it will just cause them to spread thoughout the tank. It is starting to cover my brain coral so I was...

I went to etropicals and noticed that they no longer have a coral package special. It has been about six months or so since I have ordered corals and since etropicals no longer has a coral package, I was wondering who has the a good coral package special online, Thanks

My protein skimmers do not work skim like they used to. I think that I need to clean the powerheads. I was wondering how you guys cleaned your powerheads. I have never cleaned mine before so any suggestions will be very helpful, thanks

I had the same kind of power compacts, but they were about 3 years old. The xenia have been in the tank for over 4 months. I started out with one lillte stalk and it grew to about 20 stalks. They still look the same this morning. :(

My xenia have shrunk from about six inches to only one inch. They are usually pulsing like crazy but right know none of them are pulsing. Also they are usually a beigh color but now they are almost white. Do you think something is wrong with them. I put in new lights last week ( power compacts...

It is pretty hot in michigan right now and as I don't have a.c., my tank temp is at about 86. This is the first summer that I have had corals and all of them seem fine except for my hairy leather is leaning to one side instead of standing straight up like it usually does. Can most corals...

I am interested in ordering some corals from coral dynamics. I checked the post rate your online supplier but could not find any info on coral dynamics. Has anyone gotten corals from them. Any info will be helpfull, thanks :lol:

thanks for the replys. I am pretty sure that that the anenome is not spilting because it just split about a month ago. The only fish that comes close to it is my yellow tang and I have never seen him pick at the anenome. My maroon clown keeps everthing else at bay. Also the tips around the...
