Dont worry the skimmer is off ;)

I recently got a coachman and it seems he has taken a taste for my brown polyps. As you can see form photos my anenome has recently moved onto the rock and just want to check if it couldnt be from him If it is the coachman and i remove the polyp rock is it likely he will go for my soft...

Thanks a lot

This little guy was caught off dangers beach cape town I cannot identify him with the 2 oceans fish of southern africa book Sorry for bad quality photo but he is really to active and every time camera tries to focus he swims like a maniac His tail has black and white barring and...

Tank been running for several months, its a berlin skimmer with bigger pump attached. It was working fine but now iv switch my sump to an overflow method ( i used to have a pump to get the water to my second sump) this raised the water level so it doesnt skim anymore. Live sand developing nicely...

His guys my sump level has now been raised quite substantially and the skimmer refuses to create any skimmate. How essential is this piece of equipment, as now i have turned it off (makes a lot of noise). Got ample live rock and just 5 small fish. Total volume about 300 litres. What say ye :P

How does Stability work. That is the only additive iv used

On the contrary my setup looking better than ever, all corals growing and spreading nicely. The idea of cycling doesn't seem necessary, as I am getting which is matured and comes from marine setups. My sumps got seeded so they were quickly established and my bio load has been very minimum...

Hi :) The molly has been successfully conditioned back to fresh water and is now in a tropical pond. Did it over roughly 2 days with a drop system and he seems fine. The molly was bought to see if my tank was suitable to life :> subsequently i bought a polyp rock and a damsel built up with live...

ph is 8 you can see his original colouration and how most of it has faded.

He was my tester fish, to see how the setup was running. All is well with his behavior just lost a lot of colour. He is a tank fish, so a recondition should be chilled :)

Im running range of 1.021-1.023. My diet is standard tetra bits and some brine shrimp every other day. He also is eating algae from sides of tank and the bottom on the sand.

Hi :peroni:--------->:yeahdude:--------->:eek: I conditioned a sailfin molly to marine. He has been in the tank for 3 months now. Over the past few days his colour has changed from orange to almost lucid. I think i can see some organs lol. Is this natural as mollies mature / go into saltier...

Hi everyone! I have been having a problem with my hood deteriorating and as such when i switch my lights on a mini fire begins where the wires meet. My tank is a 1metre and the lights which fit it are t8-30watt. I have a selection of 6 bulbs, all of them are 30watt I am looking for a...

Sounds good. I should probably add some sand/mud into my sump with the skimmer but need to find out more. I seeded my sump from someone elses marine setup and with it came lots of micro shrimp guys. I am sure they are breeding already. Will they survive the journey through my uplift pump back...

Not yet, but he is new to the setup so give it a day or two. He is eating random things off rocks and sand now.

The pet shop said they had been feeding him on frozen brine shrimp so I have that. I don't have any zoas or xenias. I have around 15kg live rock now in a 200 litre tank I am not running dsb. If i shine a torch at night I see quite a few critters on the rocks so hopefully he will eat those

I phoned around the local pet stores and best i could find was a copperband. He has started nibbling around the reef from moment he was put in. Hope he decides to eat the dreaded aiptasia :)

Hi everyone! I have that invasive brown anenome..the name of which I have forgotten :) From what I have read, they can be controlled biologically with peppermint shrimps. Sooo... I am looking to get hold of 1 peppermint shrimp. I am from Cape Town and will come collect and pay etc. Over...
