FWIW, it wouldn't be all that hard to put some baffles into your existing sump to turn part of it into a fuge.

'bristleworm' potentially covers a lot of worms, most of which are harmless. The ones with the one red end (on the sand in the above photo) are harmless (helpful, actually), and seem to be the most...

pH is climbing during the day because the algae are consuming CO2, which is present partly as carbonic acid. Just like in a planted tank, where you inject CO2 to aid plant growth. And, just like in a...

It sounded like you were planning on buying a metal halide fixture. If so, that would be plenty for anything (assuming it's an appropriate wattage for the tank). It could even be overkill for some...

Based on the 9005 I have in my sump, I don't think a 9002 by itself would be enough for a 54.

Longer and thinner would make me think male as well, although in a lot of other small gobies, the male has the larger head.

If you feed them well, the female will probably plump up further and...

It's amazing what will fit in a cardinals mouth when he's "motivated." It just doesn't look that big!

pruning/propogating halimeda?

Can I just pinch/cut between coins?

On a related note, is it possible to do vegatative propogation with what I take off?

thanks!

The bubbles are most likely oxygen - normal byproduct of photosynthesis. More light means more photosynthesis, thus more oxygen produced.

If you look closer, do they have a spiral pattern? If so they're probably spiroborid worms.

Are you sure they're not moving. They also look a lot like young colinista snails.

Re: dead nassarius, too brittle star?

That's strange, in that nassarius prefer to live in a fine sand substrate. Had they ever gone underground for you?

Are you culturing pods in an external tank? Depending on the species of phyto, copepods may not be able to extract nutrition from them.

Within a working reef tank, there is plenty of microalgae...

Make sure they're both reporting the same thing - it might be reporting nitrate-nitrogen, and the other total nitrate.

I'd add the sand bed sooner rather than later. You probably won't see much shift in the water parameters after adding the chaeto. It will use some ammonia/nitrite/nitrate, but as you cycle those will...

I started with one in my tank this spring. It's now brown and starting to get purpled up pretty well. I didn't notice that it ever had any more algae than any of the live rock.

Don't most/all whelk's have snorkels? Nassarius are the only members of the family that you'd want in a normal reef tank.
