Thanks I build the Durso pipe in less than 1/2 hour. Now my tank is quite and this crisis is averted.

I have a 75g oceanic reef tank which I've had setup for over four years. It seems now my wife is complaining about the noise from the overflo ( I don't notice it that much) Is there anything I can do to quiet this down and save a marriage or at least save my tank?

no legs, just plain dots

I have seen the eggs, but these are individual dots that are flat against the wall.

I also have them on the back of my 75g. I don't think it's coraline algae but I could be wrong.

I don't know what fish was the culprit. I have a bicolor pseudochromis, a hexatania wrasse and two chalk bass. These are the smaller fish. I also have a maroon clown, sohol tang, and a coral beauty. I' thinking possibly the bicolor or the wrasse. All are peaceful and get along.

OK Do I need to get rid of them and if so how? I have at least 10-12 worms of varying sizes from maybe an inch to 3inches. Rather ugly creatures that come out of the rock at feeding. I did buy an arrow crab to help take care of them but one of my fish reduced him to a pile of legs. Maybe I don't...

I'm looking for ways to rid tank of flatworms. Any suggestions? I had a power failure earlier this summer and lost my fish. Most of the corals survived. I am just now getting to restocking it. Any fish that would eat the flatworms? :?:

Jim, you have described them exactly. They do look like little bugs. Tom

A few months ago, I lost power when I was gone. Idiscovered the loss after 3 days. I lost my fish and a few corals but fortunately, I was able to save the majority of corals. I have been running the tank without fish since then. About a week ago, I discovered numerous tiny *1/8th inch)white...

Thanks for replies. I was leaning toward FP's. I don't have an anemone.

I need advice on adding a clown. I had a tomato clown who died over a year ago. Now I'm debating another tomato or percula or possibly a sebae or a ..... See my problem? I have a 75g reef.

I use the salifert test. Use 5ml water and 4 drops indicator. A light green is 8.0, dark green 8.3 and blue (HELP!!) is 8.6

It's amazing what you find. The parents or now parent is close to 2 inches. This one is only about 1/2". My first though was it was the missing one but that would be even more amazing.

I was going through my sump this morning (about a 30gal mud filter) when i discovered a fish. More to the point a bangaii cardinal. He is about 1/2". My question is how did he get there? I had a pair although one has since disappeared. I know they breed and the only thing I can thin of is that...
