I’ve used the marine pure balls before, they seemed to work pretty. Been thinking about getting the thick plate this time since I have a sump, and I feel like it would do a good job at bringing nitrates down. But I’ve also heard recently that they leach aluminum into the water. I also watched a...

Can’t forget about the stomach sphincter XD

I’m personally in favor of this, as long as it is done correctly. I dont know if anyone else would like designer clowns, but they are definitely on my list

Years ago, when I was but a noob (still am lol) I bought a (what I believe to be a wild (indo?) elegance) and my torch got bjd. I think there was an aussie vs (indo?) debate at the time. Both perished. It sucked but I learned my lesson. Sucks to hear that this is still going around

Were your mollies acclimated from freshwater, or did they come in from saltwater?

When I was window shopping for a used tank, I saw a lot of used RS tanks, but I knew it wasnt worth the risk. The tank I got was an Oceanic, seals were a bit chipped away, but it hadnt been dry for very long, maybe a week, so I felt comfortable with it. Didnt feel like re doing all of the seals...

Its sad how clean and popular their tanks are, but they wont fix their product or right the situation. I feel like they could fix this issue if they re engineered the product instead of doing a band aid fix with the seals

That’s understandable, 17 can be pretty crazy, and has lots of curves. I remember driving back from santa cruz in highschool with some buddies, and this one car was going probably around 15 MPH over the speed limit, swerving between the 2 rightmost lanes. Pretty sure they were drunk. It was very...

The drive’s not that bad! I used to go to santa cruz all of the time when I lived off of N 1st street! I’ll pick one up for you if/when I get the chance when my tank is ready!

I would like a frag of this one. @popper, @B the Nano Reefer, @MichaelB, @WishList, @Fish Boss, have requested a frag. This post was automatically created by BARcode

I’m at around 2 weeks since things have been wet, 10-11 days since I added dr tims one and only. Wanted to have my test kit before I added the bottled bac. Had a pretty big bacterial bloom before I added the bottled bac, which was interesting

They are so funny! Mine from years ago would always greet me when I came to the tank, and i would catch him sticking to the glass just getting blasted by high flow pretty often lmao

Hands down one of my favorite fish! Contemplating getting one this time around. Gonna get a couple of larger fish, I dont think he will get eaten, but afraid he might get bullied. We’ll see

Of course! Luckily, on my first tank, I never got any major pests, and it was small enough that it was easy to monitor. 40 breeder, had a decent outbreak of flatworms, ID’ed them as caution, not for sure a really bad species, got a sapphire damsel that seemed to eat them up, had one aiptasia on...

Beautiful! I’ll definitely be checking back in when my tank is ready

Thanks! I’ll let you know when I make a final decision. Appreciate you offering to share!

Appreciate the honesty! I didnt expect anyone to be able to hold coral for me, but just thought it couldnt hurt to ask. I know it is very hard/takes time to completely avoid the ugly stage, I’m more so just trying to set myself to mitigate it somewhat. We’ll see how I feel my tank is coming...

Hey everyone, I read recently about how mollies are used to see if fish or entire aquriums have disease. The idea is you take a freshwater molly, slowly acclimate it to saltwater, and then add it into a quarantine or aquarium. Since the fish shouldnt have any resistance to saltwater pathogens...

Thanks! Appreciate it. These corals will definitely work for where I’m at, my issue is that my plan was to take my start as slow as possible in order to mitigate the ugly stage as much as possible. Wanted to give my bacterial population plenty of time to grow, while also adding in pods early...
