It just seems like Snails at LFS are like Monster hdmi cables at Best Buy. That 5 dollar hdmi cable for that tv you got a decent deal on is going to cost you 80. For one or two snails, it doesn't really matter. But if you're going to spend over $15 on a cuc, online is the way to go. These...

How are you running Phosguard? I thought you had to change it every 4 days.

I'm looking for some live/dry rock. Do you have a pic of it? Where are you located?

It's a two month old ten gallon nano stocked with a small clownfish and a mix of sps and lps corals. My water parameters are 0 Ammonia, 30 ppm Nitrates, and 1.025 sg. The light is a PAR38 15 LED bulb I ordered from China with a custom led configuration, I keep the lights on about 8 hours a day...

Water changes have not been helping much. The diatom grows back.

Thanks. But I don't have a sump or refugium for it. My only filtration is a HOB with Biohome media.

Hey guys, I fed some reef roids to my 10 gallon nano two weeks ago and got a pretty nasty diatom bloom. I'm guessing the phosphates went high because I have no protein skimmer. I'm running some Phosguard right now to see if it helps. Does anyone have algae eating snails I can borrow? My tank...

Doh. I'm late to the party once again. I'm super interested. Located down in Fremont.

Does anyone use Biohome Ultimate Marine? Have you gotten good results with it? I picked up 2 lbs of the stuff. It's my main biological filtration now as I don't have any live rock.

Hey guys, I've been looking to buy an adult Ocellaris or True Percula Clownfish over 3-4 inches, but can't find them anywhere. Clownfish are among my favorite and I would like to buy a big one now rather than wait years for one to grow.

The Tang didn't make it last night :(

I've had the tank for about about a month, then had to completely change the filter and biological media last week (I had a shitty HOB filter), so I've been dosing seachem prime while the bacteria builds up again. Ammonia is currently 1 ppm, but using seachem so it's not an accurate reading. The...

4 minutes in distilled temperature matched water. I didn't have anything to up the pH and read not matching the pH is fine for a short time.

Update - he's not doing any better and refuses to eat anything. Was really hoping he would make it to adulthood and change colors :( I've had the lava rocks in the tank for about a month now, so if they were leaching any phosphates, there would be nothing left to leach after a month I think...

Perhaps. The mimic tangs were on special for $20. But what non visible diseases can take down a fish in one day like that?

Yes

Everything else is in the tank is doing fine, a damsel fish and some corals. He's been eating fine until today. I got him at 360coralz in San Jose. Just put him in a makeshift quarantine container in case it's an issue with the water quality. https://imgur.com/a/ZFAyOB7 in the quarantine tank...

Help! My mimic tang is dying. I got him about a week ago and he’s been fine until I saw him this morning in a lethargic state and breathing rapidly. I tried a freshwater dip in case it was a parasite and no dice. Running out of ideas.
