So about two to three months ago I bought a used ro/di unit with a three gallan storage tank. When I bought the unit it was used with water sitting in it. They said they did that for storage do I didn't think anything of it. Well I took it home and hooked it to my refrigrator and then T'ed off...

I just bought a used bm200 from a guy up in SF and i have it in and hooked up. My question is the tube that you slide up and down to adjust waterheight in the skimmer seems to not be very snug. There is a plastic wingnut that you screw in to keep the tube at the desired lever. But my issue is...

I'm up here for the afternoon and was hoping some of u guys would know of some good aquarium stores.

Well i have been battleing my water parameters for some time now. I think that it is new time for a skimmer. I have been using a old model Euro reef skimmer. I think that it is rated for roughly 80 gallons. I have now 140 gallong total volume tank that i know is overstocked on fish. It is a...

I just broke down a friends tank and was given all the live stock. One thing that came with it was a rock anemone. Its very pretty, light green outer with a purple mouth. The foot has purple and pink spots on the green. But anyway, my two false percs are hovering and the male has been batting...

I have read a few posts about lighting and it has come time for me to get new lighting for my reef. I have a 100 gal display with a 40 gal refigum/sump. I have alot of softies, a few stonys, and two clams. I would like to be able to keep sps, but i think with the current enhabitants that wont...

I have had a hard time with to be honest no success in my tank of trying to keep sps frags. I have tried a few montiporas, a birdsnest, and a acropora. I don't get any growth, and I get what I think is rapid skin necrosis, or atleast that is what I was told it is called. I had someone at work...
