I have questions that need answers.
Hi everyone. I'm looking to get coral pretty soon. And I'm looking for some advise on the lighting. The guy at the local fish store said t5 would be sufficient but when I asked him about metal halide he said it would be too hot and I would have to buy a chiller which is 400 to 500 dollars. I was also wondering about led. My tank is 48 inches long and 12 inches wide. I don't want to spend more than 400 dollars. Thanks all. Please feel free to suggest anything.

I saw almost 18” long blue color threadworm was floating in the tank. Immediately I caught it with the help of net and put it in measuring jug. See Video: While I was catching it, 2” part of it broken down in the ...
So, I have been battling this ugly purple/brown and green slime junk problem in my tank for a few months now. My tank is still fairly young about 8months old. I have a total of three fish and three corals and a Green bta. I feed only once a day, My nitrates and and phosphates are undetectable but the slime may be using it up. My chaeto is not growing that fast. So I have decided to try the EcoBak pellets in the Nextreef SMR1 reactor. I ordered the reactor through Marine Depot and the media ...
