    How much light can a mantis shrimp handle?

    Hey guys, so I have a coastal reef macroalgae tank which I quite enjoy but I’ve wanted to house a mantis shrimp in it, one of the smaller smasher species such as a lime green, purple spot, or tiger mantis.

    Mangrove alternatives

    Any suggestion for mangrove alternatives? My wife would like to add some green into the tank like below, however my tank is too deep (40cm) and my sand is too swallow to grow a mangrove here. Also, it is difficult to buy mangrove in HK LFS. Any alternatives? I think of some macroalgae, but I...

    Ideas for my macroalgae tank, sponges? Possible coral ideas?

    Hey guys so let me give the quick run down, Ive recently become fascinated with mantis shrimp but I do lack the space for any large mantis shrimp so my lfs said they could either get me in lime mantis shrimp or purple spot mantis shrimp, and so to accommodate this I’m setting up a 5.5 gallon...

    macroalgae in canada

    Anyone know where I can get macroalgae in Canada, I'd pay shipping if they are willing to ship for US sites too. Looking for more variety than just chaeto and that one species of caulerpa lol that all stores have. Algaebarn is like essentially 90% out of stock rn :(

    What do YOU add first to your cycled reef tank?

    There are many ways to get a reef tank going these days. Curious to hear about your process once cycled. Let’s chat… Personally, with my current build, once the tank was cycled I added some cleanup crew (love Cerith snails) for the diatoms, Chaeto macroalgae (preparing for my first fish...

    Macroalgae in display!?

    Please share your experience and photos if you have them! I am loving this look and concept. Already ordered some red grape caulerpa I am planning on just keeping a simple soft coral tank so they should benefit from this environment, right? Thanks!

    Where did all the Turtleweed/Maiden's hair algae (Chlorodesmis) go?

    I thought Turtleweed/Maiden's hair algae (Chlorodesmis) was quite a popular macroalgae a few years back, but it never seems to be available anymore. What happened? Does this have to do with recent collection bans in the Indo-Pacific region (but isn’t Chlorodesmis also native to the Caribbean)?

    Can I Eat My Tank's Macroalgae?

    In all seriousness, is is it safe to harvest and eat macroalgae from my own aquarium, specifically members of the Ulva genus (and possibly Caulerpa lentillifera in the future)? Is there something they would contain after having grown in my aquarium that would make them inedible or would a...
