    Sam's 10g work tank

    I like my setup and so far everything seems to be going well. However, I realize that this tank is very new and I haven't had enough time to mess anything up. As of now, the only thing that I would change is maybe the lighting. The 36w pc 50/50 bulb does not give me enough actinic to make to...

    Sam's 10g work tank

    I'm glad I'll be able to get the goby. The yellow will be a nice contrast of color.

    Sam's 10g work tank

    Well I went to Neptune Aquatics yesterday and splurged. While fishless cycling I had been feeding the tank a high amount of ammonia to maintain a large amount of bacteria, so I added a few things. I added 2 baby ocellaris clownfish, 5 blue legged hermit crabs, 1 nassarius snail, 1 orange...

    Sam's 10g work tank

    When I came to work this Monday morning 4/14 and looked at my tank it was nice to see some life after waiting patiently for many weeks. :) Being new to saltwater and reef tanks it is amazing to see how these little corals are starting to blossom like a beautiful flower. It is still mind...

    Hello BAR!

    Thank you all, for the warm welcome. I've posted a few threads with questions and started my tank journal and I've already been given plenty of helpful advice.

    Sam's 10g work tank

    The tank has been cycled since Thursday 3/27/14. I have been feeding the tank ammonia to keep the bacteria alive until I decide what my next step is. I know that at this stage I am suppose to add a clean up crew to the tank. However, I believe in my case that may not be a good idea since my...

    Which sea water would you use?

    The 10g tank is at my work, so I don't have the time and space. If I'm only doing a 10% water change per week a 5 gallon container would last me a while. I would only be going to my LFS about once a month to purchase water. I'm still undecided about using nsw from Neptune Aquatics or using...

    Which sea water would you use?

    I just recently setup a 10g reef tank that just finished fish less cycling, so now I need to do a major water change before adding a clean up crew. I don't plan on mixing my own sea water. I was able to go to Reef Raft NorCal today and I was informed that they sell D&D and Instant Ocean...

    Fishless cycling complete. Have some stocking questions?

    Hi Everyone, My tank finished cycling today. I will continue to add some ammonia to the tank for a few more days until I'm absolutely sure that it is cycled. And then do a major water change before adding any livestock. I was wondering, how much should introduce into the tank at one time...

    Sam's 10g work tank

    I just tested the water today Thursday 3/27/14 and ammonia is at 0 ppm and and nitrites are now at 0 ppm. I had tested the nitrites yesterday at they were at .25 ppm, so I was hopeful that it would be cycled today. I will continue feeding the tank ammonia for a few more days to make sure...
