    Dino or Cyano?

    Need help with ID of this. Been keeping up with water changes over the 8 weeks very regularly. This started about 3-4 months back, when the tank was in some neglect and the alk was quiet low (6ish), which led me to believe it’s some kind of dino outbreak. Read somewhere that Dinos can grow in...

    Hammer spawning

    Looks the hammer is getting ready for spawning! Not sure how this would work out in a reef tank, I assume the eggs would just get collected by the filtration system. https://reefs.com/2014/06/05/hammer-corals-caught-accumulating-eggs-tentacles-preparation-spawning-event/ Sent from my iPhone...

    Critter ID please

    Since last few weeks I've started noticing these critters in my tank. Not sure what they are. They are also multiplying pretty rapidly. Also, battling the GHA after few weeks of generous feeding and substrate change.

    Free Green Birdsnest (Seriatopora)

    I've got a fist size colony of green birdsnest and can make bunch of frags from it. Fairly easy to take care of, its a nice beginner SPS coral that grows pretty fast. Got this from one stick to a fist size colony in about 8-9 months. Location: Sunnyvale.

    Piggyback float switch for ATO failures

    Few days ago, my IM Hydrofill TI ATO controller failed. Luckly I noticed this before any water spilled onto the floor from my IM 20g tank. Also the change in salinity wasn't too wild to cause harm to any livestock. However this has made me restless and I want to add a backup switch to prevent...

    Xenia frags

    Some love Xenia, some hate it. I personally like the nice wavy and pulsating motion it brings in my tank. With Xenia comes the housekeeping it needs. Its that time again to trim it. I can make small (one or two stalks) or medium frags (baby fist size). PM if you need some. Edit: Location...

Apart from that it has a fire shrimp, emerald crab and 5 snails. Planning to add one or two more small fish to this tank. Looking for suggestions...

    Musing on coral coloration

    I upgraded my tank about 2.5 months ago to a Nuvo 20g. The live rock is from my old tank which ran for more than an year. Some corals have displayed good growth and some have shown no growth at all. But for most part, I am seeing a fading in the coloration for most corals. Most notable color...

    Replacement pump for IM Ghost skimmer

    I recently purchased a IM 20 gallon tank that came with a ghost skimmer. The skimmer was too loud so I took the pump apart and noticed that the impeller shaft had rust on it and was partly broken. I tried looking for replacement impeller, but apparently IM doesn't sell pump parts. I may be...

    Hermit's tank crash: Nuvo 8

    It happened about 3 weeks ago. I was so shattered, it was my first tank crash. My tiny Nuvo 8 had been running for about 11 months. On a Friday late after work, I was due to change about 1 gallon of water. Also, the purigen that I had recharged, was bleached, dechlorinated and ready to be...

    AI Prime HD vs Kessil A160WE

    I currently own a Nuvo 8 gallon tank and am planning to get a Lagoon 25 in future. Which light would you guys recommend? Looking at the PAR comparisons on AquaIllumination's website, the Prime seems to beat the Kessil. http://www.aquaillumination.com/science/par.html I'd also like to know the...

    Clownfish maturity age?

    I got a pair of false ocellaris around 10 months ago. When I bought them they were about an inch (smaller one) and inch and half (bigger one). I assumed their age was about 6-7 months. They fought for a bit initially and the smaller one did the horizontal seizure dance in which he acquiesced to...
