Reading back I really like your stand height. I do not like the low stands. I also like the dimension of the 180g. It would fit perfectly in my basement.

Have you had any algae outbreaks or the...

If you're going to put it in QT, I assume you're going to treat for Ich anyway.

I agree that I'd buy another heater and match your display's temp. Heaters are cheap.

One thing that I really appreciate from a LFS is when I ask if something is compatible and they no, that they follow up with some alternatives.

Like if you have a 10gal tank and ask if you can put...

How old is your tank? If it's new, your pod population will balance out and they will be less noticeable. I'm not sure I would ever buy a mandarin to control pods. I would get one because I want one....

That was me. I put a variable speed control fan to reduce noise. I agree that you really need a fan across your water surface. This will really help.

No. Think about it this way. You'd have to have every Ich parasite pass through the UV in order kill it all. Ich is in a only in a free swiming state for a short period of time. While UV may reduce...

In theory I see no reason why not. My only concern would be that some of the walls on those things tend to be pretty flimsy. Other option would be those large Rubbermaid tubs.

Everything I've read on clams, from people who I trust, says that you do not need to feed them except for very young clams. Their zoanthella (sp?) is supposed to provide all the nutrients they need....

I'm not familiar with Nox-Ich other than the name. I know that malachite green is commonly used to treat marine diseases. I really don't know what effect it will have on inverts or corals.

I have a skimmer, 2 MJ 1200, 2 heaters, MJ 900, rock rubble, chaeto, and a frag rack all crammed into a 10 gal. tank. Has worked very well for 6 months now.

Too early to tell for me. I started using it about three weeks ago on my Mandarin since the majority of his food comes from mysis. I wanted to add something. So far so good but it's too early to tell.

JeffersonReef - No problem. It is confusing. Both are pods.

Someone on RC had a mandarin that was the fattest thing I've ever seen. They had posted a pic of it. I think it was several years back. It looked like he had swallowed a marble. Too funny.

I believe you mean mandarins tend to eat Copopods. Copopods are the really small crustaceans that look like lice. Amphiopods are much bigger and look like large fleas. I've never seen mine eat an...

While this is indeed sad news, I do find it interesting how large aquariums face many of the same problems and unexplained events that we do in the hobby.

The generally move pretty slow but don't let them fool you. They can dart pretty quickly. I'm amazed at how quickly mine moves when spooked. Still shouldn't be too bad to catch.
