So I found this in my filter floss. It is curled up in the pick but when stretched out its about 3/8". Some kind of worm with clear spiny legs. Thanks Ryan

Got this a while back and was wondering what it might be. Thanks Ryan

So recently got past an algae issue (still some bubble algae but that I can handle) and I have been thinking about tank improvements and was considering two different options. I have a JBJ 45RL with Ghost skimmer and a mini reactor running GFO/Carbon. First would be to add another Kessil...

So I was considering a fuge but then during research I came across several post stating reactors are more beneficial for smaller tanks. I have a JBJ RL45 AIO. So what are the thoughts here? I definitely like the way a reactor gets the crystal clear water. But then the fuge does require...

I have a free standard 20gallon long glass tank. I am located in San Mateo. Haha I just saw Mikes post for 10 ga. I got this from him about a year ago. Ryan

I was wondering if any one had any experience with these? Seems like a pretty simple solution to keep algae in control and clearing water. Was wondering why they aren't used by more folks. Thanks Ryan Ryan

So it looked fine last night but came home tonight and it looks like this. What would cause this and can it be remedied? It has been in the tank about 3 weeks.

I have a A360WE and was wondering what are the optimal intensity and color for coral growth? My tank is still very new and my corals have only been in there a couple of weeks. I don't have a controller just a timer set for about 7.5 hour light period. Current stock: Acans Torch Hammer...

So I was hesitant to start a tank thread thinking that since this is my first saltwater experience whatever I posted would in no way compare to the insane tanks folks have. Well after some thought I figured "why not?" It will be a good way to document my progress with the tank and get some...

Hello. Just reading through all of the posts I am thankful for all the info I have already gotten. I am new to the saltwater game but have had fish my entire adult life from African and South American cichlids to arowana. I currently have a planted tank and a JBJ RL 45. The RL 45 has been...
