Hi there - I have a bunch of pumps I inherited when I bought my tank. Didn't have anyone interested in a trade, so am just happy for them to find a new home. I live in Oakland and work in SF. More details here. Send me a PM and we can coordinate pick-up...

Hi all - I was surprised a couple days ago to see a couple fry from my Molly in my tank. Anyone experienced raising these as babies in salt water? I am going to get an imaginarium aquarium tank and nursury to keep them safe from the overflow.

I'll be sure to report back in a few weeks after taking some of these steps!

It's helpful to have some sense of what went wrong overall and what did the steps are to fix it. Really appreciate you weighing in.

I was just thinking I needed a strainer cap for the durso. It hadn't occurred to me before. I'll be sure to do so. I'm using a LED light off of Amazon. It ramps up 6-8am and then ramps down 10pm-Midnight. It runs at 100% blue and 25% white.

Thank you! I'll get on this.

Brita I only use a cup or two at a time a few times a week to tip off the sump when the water is below the line. I use salt water from Kenny at HTA for weekly water changes. Mix my own with RO when I run out and can't get to HTA until the weekend.

I recently got master reef and saltwater kits. I have used them a couple times but on a weekly basis have used the meter and strips. Any others you'd recommend?

Thank you for this thoughtful and thorough reply. I'm going to follow your recc for acclimating, feeling, salinity and the like. I will get reading using my reef master test kit soon. I took this video of my fully tank. I show my set up including the heater in the overflow, sump and protein...

Hi Everyone, Since losing my storm clown in January, I paused on adding any new fish to my tank for a while. I wanted to make sure none of the fish were in my tank were sick and I wanted to focus on proper maintenance. I have done regular water changes (mostly salt water from HTA, but 1/month...

I think I misunderstood your question. Pipe is 24 inches, but from the top of overflow to water line is about 3-4 inches.

Thanks folks I have bought all my fish from Kenny.

Thanks everyone for your help. Unfortunately the storm clown, who I named Megan Thee Stallion, passed away this morning. I read online that you can preserve your fish in resin, so I might try that to honor her. Since I was a kid, I've always been sentimental about losing a pet or seeing an...

Good morning, Megan is still kicking. Here's a new video. I'm going to go to try and go to Ken's during lunch. https://photos.app.goo.gl/WLaWNv9fi9yMxDC58

Found this thread and am gonna see if I can get any medicine tomorrow. https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/clownfish-with-swim-bladder-disease-cured-helpful-info.938949/

She's on the struggle bus, but still alive somehow. I moved her to a small 10 gal tank I have with water from my main tank. My cleaner shrimp was being aggressive as she laid on the ground and I think she was getting more stressed. Her name btw is Megan as in Megan Thee Stallion. Will share...

The full height of the pipe is about 24 inches. Not sure how much water there is between the bottom and the top, but I can hear it trickle, not annoyingly so.

Yes I forgot to mention that there's a skimmer. I use a filter sock and there is a durso style plumbing, which I thought may also help with oxygenation.

Now she got up and is doing backflips again but if anyone has any recommendations on how to triage, please let me know.
