The dynamic snowballs as waste accumulates, mucus accumulates, bacteria proliferate and ultimately become pathogenic; its the very thing that kills so many corals in shipping. There is also the simple matter that an increase of water flow in traditionally under-filtered aquariums often translates into prompt and improved rates of growth in captive animals. And finally, on more elemental level, effective water flow is necessary in the aquarium to prevent the accumulation of detritus, and worse - lingering matter that dissolves and concentrates ove

Truth be told, most tanks will be served very well with unrestricted outlets that merely have swiveling 45-degree elbows.

Nonetheless, some aquarists will have more discriminating preferences and some corals certainly have more demanding needs regarding water flow. This is especially true in display with large or fast growing corals that have a monthly need for modificati

If you count on the LFS (Local Fish Store) or your buddy down the road to keep you out of trouble and dont do your homework.. You will fail. That is the one guarantee in this hobby. DO YOUR HOMEWORK.

The only way around this is to be able to afford to pay someone else to set-up and maintain your tank.

3) Mingle! (see 2 above) There are plenty of reef-keeping societies out there with lots of experience to help you along your way and teach you what you need to know. As long as you are doing your own homework, they are usually happy to help!

Anyhow, establishing an adult pair can be a little tricky; and you need to keep your eyes on them to ensure that the female doesnt kill the male.

The next thing is about setting up the tank. The tank should be large enough, approximately 200 liters for the breeding pair. It is better to let the pair be alone in an aquarium when trying to spawn clownfish.

The rest of the aquarium should be decorated with a nice anemone, a few live rocks, and other rocky substance with a vertical surface, a layer of coral sand on the bottom, br

The microbes and foods in the used media will populate your new system by themselves, or for bonus points, you can use this method combined with the live rock and/or sand listed above.

Time Frame: Typically a few (3-4) weeks.

Bacteria and Not Cultures:

There are commercial preparations of bacteria, their adjuncts available that you can add from a bottle directly to your system Some work pretty w

phosphates too high
hello again- Well my 90 gallon predator/reef tank has been up in running for about 7 months. Everything is running smoothly so far- water parameters are nitrate > 20 ppm, nitrite 0ppm, ammonia 0 ppm, pH 8.2, salinity 1.025, but phosphates are way to high it's about 5 ppm. For the past two weeks....

SE vs DE
I did a search but my searching skills suck I guess. I'm trying to figure out if DE is worth the cost over SE for a dual setup over a 75 or a 90 gallon tank, haven't decided yet, but I obviously want the most light for the least money :) DE bulbs are more expensive (seems to be), and the pendants are definitly more costly than a simple reflector and I.

Goby in my 100?
I want to see about getting a good sand sifting goby in my 100 gallon tank, most of you probably know what is in it but for those who don't: Volitan lionfish, catshark, snowflake eel, copperbanded butterfly and Imperator Angelfish. http://www.reeffrontiers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15497 so my....
