Hi There! I can loan you George. He is my sea hare. He is my favorite little guy, but it would be a reciprocal favor because I hand feed him every day and this would save me some work and feed my little vacuum :) I am located on the Upper East Side. Message me if you want to borrow him :)

You are all so wonderful. Thank you for your time. Bugg- The little guy is facing the back of the tank, but as far as I can tell, no open mouth, and unfortunately, due to space in my apt, no quarantine tank. Reef and Jr Jackson- You are echoing what I have read about feeding it, though I...

Hello Everyone, I had been itching for an anemone for my clowns and I finally got one this past Thursday. I did quite a bit of research and felt that this was a safe purchase for my coral reef. The only problem is that somehow in all of my reading, I did not learn that a white anemone=...

Hi there! I think we have the same tank:) I got myself a red marble fromia yesterday and I dripped it for 2.5 hours. She's alive and sofar so good HOWEVER I will say that 99.9% of what I've read about starfish is not good. The LONGEST I've read of someone keeping then has been 1.5 years, more...

I guess I should of captioned the picture with "update: happy healthy coral!" Mr. Herman McClaw, so far knock on wood, is quite the star of my tank. He has steadily consumed the green hair algae in the tank, comes out demanding food, doesn't bother my corals/fish, and has recently taken to...

I am a fairly new member and I love that MR is doing this for us. i am currenty really in need of help with regards to gluing corals and I'm excited to be able to pick all of your wise brains about this and so much more. I'm sure my husband will think I'm crazy, but I'll be there!

Hey guys, So I recently realized that my protein skimmer isn't really working as it should (strangely though the water parameters are on spot and all fish and corals and inverts are doing great). I see the foam, but it doesn't climb up the neck very far. I just spent about an hour moving the...

:bump:

Thanks guys! I'll let you know how my first batch goes!

My mag is at 1600-1700.

I have three in there that I acquired when I bought the tank from my gf. They are little busy bodies and fun to watch. I have noticed that the smaller margarita snails tend to hitchhike on their large cone shaped shells. Why they do that, I don't know. Free ride? Cleaning stuff off their shells...

9 drops=9dKH=161.1

I am using the API test kits. I am asking why my alkalinity is so high? Is it dangerous? I dusted equal amount of B-Iionic (5ml) 2-3x per week for last few weeks. Should I only dose Ca and let the KH drop and then resume ?

Calcium is 420 and KH is 161.1. Can anyone help please?
