Good morning Cr family. Just sharing my quick experience with you all. Yesterday, my wife and I stumbled across a new lfs around her job in Frankfort called http://www.aqualandpets.com/ . The guy inside was really friendly, and they have decent prices. Not a lot of live stock, but enough to...

Hello fellow reefers......i just thought I'd share my insanity with you all. As we all know, i can't fit anything else on my rocks in my reef tank, sooooo, I've brilliantly decided to turn the puffer tank into a display macro algae tank too. Just when i thought i was done spending money, i find...

The wife and I are in Orlando, FL visiting Disney world for our anniversary. Now she knows I'm not a "Disney" person at all, but she is, so here we are. I'll admit tho, we visited Seaworld yesterday, and I secretly had a blast. Seeing all the aquatic life and shows was up my alley. Here's two...

Good morning reef family, I have a quick question... My tank is starting to become overrun by asteria stars, so I'm considering a harlequin shrimp, but I also have 2 nice sized brittle stars in my tank too. Will the harlequin shrimp eventually go after and eat the brittle stars after all the...

Hello everyone....I just wanted to share my experience with everyone regarding my fiancé largest seahorse having a gas bubble. He's been swimming upside down since yesterday and today was starting to look really bad. So after a few YouTube videos, I decided to attempt to "burp" him. I must...

What's up guys....my jbj 1/15 chiller keeps blowing fuses whenever I put a new one in. The chiller will come on and stay on for about 3-5mins, then it shuts off from a blown fuse. Anyone know what could possibly be going on? Thank you. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Merry Christmas folks...Although I've had a good day, I'm a lil sad. Many of my sps colonies are dying, or already dead. I've pinpointed the problem to a sudden rise of phosphates. Even with a nice water change yesterday and a new batch of gfo, it doesn't seem to be helping. So, looks like...

Hey guys, the Mrs talked me into(didn't take much talking) setting her up a tank with gorgonians, sea whips, sponges, etc...so she picked out the tank she wanted and I've just finished putting it together. It's a 15 gal column tank. I kinda like it, and she loves it, which is all that matters...
