She new that I probably wouldn't buy it for myself so she went ahead and bought it for me.

So about 6 weeks ago my wife convinced me to buy a carpet anemone, against my better judgement. Since then almost all of my fish have disappeared. Now she wants it gone but the problem is that I'm not sure how to get it out. It has doubled in size and now is about 10-11 inches across and has...

I'm setting up a 60g cube and not sure what sand to go with. I want something fine enough to keep a goby happy, but i also don't want it blowing all over the place. With that said, what are you using and how do you like it?

So I've finally decided to setup a 60gallon rimless cube that I scooped up this summer for a steal and I was looking for some recommendations on a sump. Space is limited since the stand is only 24x24. I'm not sure if I should get one custom built or if there is a certain tank that I should use...

So I picked up a couple small clownfish on Saturday, even though I have never had luck with them, and last night I came home to this. The fish were doing great when my wife and I left for dinner but when we returned home the Acan was also having dinner. Oh well......the bad luck streak with...

I bought 100 "nassarius" snails off ebay for $25 and since they've been in the tank all they do is lay eggs. The glass looks like crap with all these eggs all over and I'm not sure If I should scrape them off. I don't know if killing all of them will screw with my water. Any suggestions?

My skimmer is in need of a much needed cleaning. Ive heard that I should use vinegar but im not sure how much. Does it matter if I dump a whole bottle in? Would a baby bottle brush be the best thing to scrub it with? Thanks for the input.

I heard that Francisco (previously from global aquatics) has opened up his own place in the Wooddale area. Does anyone know where this location is.

I recently moved and things arent working out with my dogs. One of them is a female chocolate lab that just turned 3 a couple weeks ago and the other is a 9 year old chihuahua toy fox terrier mix that looks like a puppy german shepherd. They both have had all there shots and I could provide...

I came home earlier to find my heater submerged and shorting out. The temp was at 86 (usually its at 74)Since then all fish and snails have died and the corals are all going downhill quick. They all have secreted some type of mucus and the protein skimmer is skimming like it never has before...

The other day I noticed one of these things on the glass and I pulled it out. The next day I saw 4 more of them. Does anyone know what it might be? It almost looks like a worm with tentacles.

Im just wondering where people place Acans in their tank. I've had a couple frags for about a year that just don't do very well in my tank. At times the frags will look totally dead and then all of a sudden they make a comeback. I love the way these things look but I just can't get them to grow.

If your only purpose of using this site is to sell the hundreds of frags that you have in your house then do you have to pay to use the site like the other stores on here? I'm just curious.

I heard there are new owners at global aquatics and they changed the name to Exotic aquatic world. Does anyone know who these guys are? I know many people have mixed reviews about this place and I'm just wondering what's going on over there.

I'm gonna be moving next month and all the rooms are carpeted. Having the setup on carpet scares me a little since I don't want to ruin it with a spill. Does anyone have their setup on carpet? Should I put plastic under the stand?

After reading a post yesterday about what temp you keep your tank at, I decided that I should really have a controller on my tank. I'm gonna be moving in about a month and I really want things setup better then they are now. Any suggestions on what kind I should get? I'm a little clueless on...

I picked up a sweet deal on craigslist today for $35. This fixture has 2 250w metal halides along with 4 65w power compacts. One side of the pcs aren't working so I need a couple ballasts. Does anyone know where I can get some at a decent price?

I haven't been on the site in awhile and I gotta say that I'm a little disappointed. What happened?! This used to be a "reef site" but now it seems like its full of crap. I don't care if people have dogs for sale or of your Xbox isn't working. I feel like the admins have let this thing slip away...

So I was doing some cleaning and realized that I have a swimming pool pump in the garage. Does anyone know if this can be used for an aquarium??? It's a 1hp that's rated 3600gph. If i drilled the floor and had it setup in the basement would it work? I have a 125gal mixed reef setup right now but...

So during construction of my latest fish trap I noticed alot of little red bugs on the glass. I've been starting to read up on them and I guess they're pretty bad to have in your tank. Does anyone have any experience with these things? What's the best way to get rid of em? Lately I find myself...
