I added a pair of clownfish to my new 30 gallon tank last week. Ammonia and Nitrite have stayed at 0 and nitrate has remained under 40. Can I add another fish? If yes it would be a watchman goby and shrimp.

A friend of mine today gave me a large cowrie snail, asking me to clean it out for her to use as a shell. I told her I would, but I’m not gonna go and hurt a creature like that so instead I put it in my tank at home. Once I got home, I put it in and I did see it move a bit, but I’m afraid it was...

I bought these lights from ebay. They said they can grow coral but I'm just a beginner so I don't really know. They have a white mode and a blue mode.

Hey everyone, I just bought some new "Live Rock" from my LFS. They had multiple options, but I recently got dry rock and I want something that will help build coralline algae and also filter the tank. Basically at the store it looked rich and well cultured, covered in beautiful coralline. But...

Hey all, I am currently trying to identify the different corals and whatnot in my fish tank at work. The individuals stocking it have told me that they're going to get me a list, but it's been three weeks since he's said that and I go back to school next week. I'd like to have the flashcards...

I have an old 72 gal bow front that was set up for saltwater. The bottom is drilled and there was a plastic overflow attached to the inside rear glass. The over flow was removed to turn it into a terrarium. I would like to restore it to being a saltwater tank. Is there anyplace that I get an...

I recently bought a Red Sea Reefer 350 to upgrade from a 46 gal Bow front. So here is my issue, I want setup my Reefer 350 in the same spot as my current 46 gal Bowfront. What is the best way to do this without losing any fish? Oh and I also bought new sand, so the old sand will go in trash...

I have a lot of dry rock to cure. I would prefer to cure in RODI water to save some cash on salt. Any advantages to curing in saltwater vs RODI?

Hello everyone! My name is Antonio and I have had a reef tank now for over 3 years. I started with a 46 gallon bow front, but upon moving to my new house, I decided to upgrade to a bigger 120 gallon tank. I currently have an anemone dominated tank with other soft corals. I am hoping to start...

Hello, my Oceanic biocube 29 finally bit the bullet a few days ago. I am now in the market either for a new hood (lights) or a whole new system. I don't have much knowledge in what would be a good tank or not. Evidently the one I currently own is not so great with filtering.I am wanting to go as...
