This Saturday I spied a massive glass vase at a garage sale and for $8 I now have a new reef tank. It’s cylindrical and three feet tall and 10” wide, I’m thinking it’s around 10 gallons. My aquascape for this tank is going to be a pillar set against the side of the tank, without much open sand...
After stressing out about getting the aquascape "perfect" I finally came up with these two shapes.... the problem is that once I got a bangaii cardinal I realized that what I made is not ideal for a fish. I say that because my bangaii is usually brown and stressed out in the corner of the tank...

Who’s currently aquaculturing a variety of:
• Photosynthetic sponges
• Photosynthetic gorgonians
• Rarer inverts
• Cleaner shrimp, etc.?
I’d love to support them and give them kudos. It’s hard to find a reliable source of these that are 100% aquacultured.
What inverts can be housed with carpet anemones? Looking to add shrimp and crabs.
Also what fish can safely be with carpets with out getting eaten ? Thanks in advance
I've been doing a lot of reading on QT tanks, A LOT. ;Bookworm;Bookworm;Bookworm I want to set up a QT tank but my concern is that I've read that daily water changes are needed. I work 12 hour shifts 4 days a week and during my work week it would be almost impossible to have time to do a daily...
Longtime lurker here, I'm setting up my newest nano reef tank, which I bought through petco because they were the cheapest re-seller. They ended up giving me 25$ in store credit, but in general I try to avoid purchasing any livestock from them as they don't take particularly good care of their...

Hey guys, how is it going? My tank is cycling yet but I want to add a cleaning crew in a few weeks, but I'm not sure if I should QT them. I read somewhere that inverts don't get Ich, so I shouldn't QT them. I plan on QT the clownfish when I add them, but should I do the same with the cleaning...
I'm looking for suggestions on what will be the best clean up crew for my 20g nano. I've acquired a few crabs that have made their way into my tank by hitchhiking on some coral, but that's all I have in there right now when it comes to clean up crews. I've heard from several sources that...

I'm at work. My wife called and said that the sump water level has gotten too low, so she put water into the sump to raise the level. The only one of my buckets that had water in it was the one that I've been using for the cupramine treatment for my quarantine tank. It had approx 2 gallons of...
