    BlueSallymandr's 40 gallon AIO tank

    Yes, a little bit! I have it in the back, where it can be viewed from the side, so it's not visible in the photo. I think it would be happier if I could get my nutrients up. I have a tuxedo urchin, and it keeps the rocks clean of everything except the bryopsis, but it won't touch that stuff...

    210 gallon Dream tank

    I'm so sorry to hear about your fish! I had something really similar happen to me, all the fish just suddenly died on me with all inverts and corals being fine. Never did figure out what happened for sure, but I suspect a bloom of bad bacteria? I added some filter media from an established...

    Tank moving help

    Thanks you all! That's so nice of you. I will let you know when I figure out moving time. I'm buying a house and want to do some work on it before the fish make the journey :D

    Tank moving help

    Anyone know any good local aquarium services who move aquariums? I'm moving and I have two 40 gallon tanks to bring with me :( One reef tank and one planted freshwater, and I'm keeping all the livestock. Oakland to Oakland; date TBD.

    BlueSallymandr's 40 gallon AIO tank

    I'm bad at updates and got distracted by life stuff but the tank is going pretty well! All my fish are healthy, and have been joined by a Hector's goby. That guy hid in my rockwork for over a week, and I thought for sure he died and got eaten by snails, but now he's out and seems to be...

    Paired Pistol shrimp & goby

    Kenny at high tide aquatics ordered me a Randall's pistol shrimp and had the Yasha goby available in store. They found each other naturally, right away and paired up (small tank). I love watching these two!

    I'm really interested in learning how to frag but don't have colonies I want to frag yet. Can I bring some extra consumables to donate to the group? Please lmk what kind or I guarantee I will buy the wrong thing.

    BlueSallymandr's 40 gallon AIO tank

    I’ve been working on my tank, even though I haven’t been updating lately. I didn’t have the energy to completely restart my tank, and I didn’t want to risk my corals and invertebrates while I did so (I really like my inverts). But things are going much better. The short version of my update is...

    First Build IM Fusion 40 AIO Advice

    Hi! I'm a beginner from Oakland too, and set up a similar tank recently. I'm running a Tunze Osmolator Nano ATO on my tank, and so far I have no complaints, but I haven't run any other brands to compare with. If you do decide to go with a protein skimmer (which I'm not sure that you will need...

    BlueSallymandr's 40 gallon AIO tank

    Unfortunately I don't have a microscope. Update on the dinoflagellates: I cut off the lights early Friday morning, and started dosing nutrients heavily to try to combat them. Current readings: Phosphate - 0.03 Nitrate - 5 I also adjusted my temperature down to a setting of 78F. The reason it...

    BlueSallymandr's 40 gallon AIO tank

    Here's the algae that I'm seeing. When you blast it, it comes off in clumps. I didn't mean that there was a film over the top of the water, just some floating algae. Yeah, there weren't any marks or anything on the fish. They looked perfect except for being dead. The weirdest thing is...

    BlueSallymandr's 40 gallon AIO tank

    Did some more testing, but nothing stood out: Nitrite - 0 Nitrate ~ 2.5 Phosphate - 0 (dosed some after testing) I wonder how I know when/if it is safe to put fish back in? Corals are looking fine to me - the weeping willow toadstool is out and usually that's the first one to get stressed by...
