As I mentioned in another post, I bought a sleeper goby and he proceeded to tear up my sand bed, as I guess he is suppose to. However, my water has been cloudy ever since and I don’t think its really from sand particles anymore. Could moving the sand bed a lot cause high nitrates or something of...

this might soudn stupid, but would a MH system melt the plastic on my glass top. i have this 'all glass' glass flip top so if i put a MH lamp over it, would it melt it?

also, i've been finding this kind of equipment http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... gory=46314 i understand the box in the picture in needed to turn on the light, but does this product come with the light, fixture, reflector etc.?

alright, i'll look into that as well, where is a good place to find good equipment. i don't mind doing some work myself to save some cash.

thanks darrel, your link doesn't work.... but is it something like this? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... egory=3212 if so, it this a good price?

i'm looking into getting a MH for my 72g tank but before i buy one, i'd like to know as much as i can about them so i can get the right one. anyone know where a good place to find MH info? also, what is HQI for a MH light?

i second that last question... also, should i consider getting rid of my goby or will my tank be fine with less critters in the sand. by the way, the goby goes through the whole 72 gallon tank eating, but leaves the sand pretty much where he got it (doesn't drop it over my live rock)

haha, i read the post...you said at first that since the top layer is an aerobic layer and that i should be fine...the second part is what i was wondering about, i knew he would eat whatever is in my sand and i was asking how much damage he could cause...so, am i wrong in assuming he would only...

hey thanks for the info, that was what i was hoping...my sandbed is about 3.5 to 4.5 inches deep so hopefully i'll be fine

hi, i recently aquired a gold head sleeper goby, one with blue streaks by its eyes... a Valenciennea strigata... anyway, i got it because i was hoping it would clean this algae that was at the bottom of my tank. it did a great job and now the tank looks much cleaner. however, i read that they...

thanks for the info brian, i'll give it time

i have a 72 gallon tank...the clowns have been together for about six months, i thought two would pair up because they all grew so quickly once all put together and one got even larger than the two others, i thought that was a sign...anyway, the reason i am writing here is because i have this...

i heard that perculas would pair with them but oscelaris would not... if i have 3 oscelaris, could i get a percula to add to the mix? or would they fight?

thanks for the info, what clowns would go best with them?

does anyone out there have any info on a purple tip sebae anemone? thanks
