I'm trying so much to build my rock layout, but everything that I build is terrible. Hope someone help me with a good layout. There's all my rocks in the picture. The paper is the size of my display (60 cm x 30 cm)
Hi there, i hope you al doing ok.
This green and red stuff has grown inside back muy tank, is it a bacteria or is normal or what.
Im a begginer. And after all my fish died from brooklynella, some of you told me to leave the tank with no fish for about 2 months and that's what I'm doing.
Also...
I have done some searching, and can not seem to find an answer for this. Maybe it's that I do not know how to phrase the questions either, but I am going to try to explain my thought process here.
While I have my "down times" during the day and wile I try to go to sleep, my mind goes about...

Hey all,
I'm starting a Pico jar (2.5g anchor Hocking jar) and I'm looking for a tiny amount of established real living rock, ideally 2 pieces in the 2-4lb range total as I need to fit it in the 9" opening.
Ideally shipped in water if possible, overnight.
Does anyone have some Haitian rock rat-holed away?
I'm looking for approximately 15-20lbs of flat-ish pieces. Would need it shipped to 81650
Any leads would be appreciated.

A random question…
In Peter Scott's The Complete Aquarium (1991), “live rock” is always referred to as “living rock.”
Has anyone heard this latter term being used? I am simply curious.
A few months ago my lfs convinced me to buy some live rock to speed up my cycle.
It was a huge mistake.
First, I got GHA.
Next, I saw an aiptasia coming out of the rock. They sold me some F-Aptasia to get rid of it. It worked. The next day I saw multiple aphasia coming out of the rock along...
So this is my first reef tank that I recently started and so for I think it is a success. I got a good deal at PetSmart that came with the filter, heater, lights net and thermometer. I already had a small 10 gal tank with fresh water fish and decided to try a salt water reef tank for the first...
Looking to buy a few pieces of well-established live rock to 'seed' my new tank. Due to moving, I had to dismantle a tank that I had set up for 5+ years and would like to get set-up again. I picked up some live rock from my LFS to get started, but I'm looking for a piece or two of that good...
I spent an hour today picking out Live Rock to get my 2.0 tank started again. I’m so Excited!! Cycling starts tonight! Can I see everyone’s Aquascapes??
So my tank took a nose dive last week and EVERYTHING DIED. I know what it was so that’s behind me now. Anyway…
Im starting anew and have a question…
if I have live rock, do I still add Bio-Spira?
I have absolutely no clue what these things are. They came on some LFS live rock, which I believe originated from the Indo-Pacific. They have no holes, feel quite tough, do not bend, and have small “tufts” on their spikes. They also do not appear to have grown since I introduced them a few weeks...
I have a few month old 3.5 ish gallon tank with one Turbo Snail, a ton of live rock from E-bay (claimed the live rock was cured) and a large mushroom coral frag. The live rock is teaming with life, so it is hard to tell the difference between what is a live rock hitchhiker and what is a...
Anybody know what this snow is? (And what may have caused this?)
What changed around the time the snow appeared? (about a week ago)
Lights? (bleaching the algae?) I've had an old 2 bulb T5 fixture, but just added a neptune sky 12 inches up only at 25% (afraid of the ugly stage).
Salt? I've...
This loaf is about to set out on an adventure...
I guess it's time for me to begin my first build thread. After suffering way too long with my previous (first) build (a temperate system with freshwater rocks and sand as well as a HOB filter that never left the diatom phase), I decided to...
What are your thoughts on purging mobile pests from live rock with hypersaline water?
Explanation from KP Aquatics:
"(Optional Step) Undesired critters (we really don’t like the word unwanted pests as every creature has a purpose in life) can be removed by submerging the live rock into a...
Hi all,
I have read that running live rock or “rubble” in an all in one back filter chamber isnt a good idea as its a cause of detritus build up and therefore influences nitrate rises.
Im curious does this count for larger bits of live rock? Or just the rubble? And im assuming rubble is...
Hi- I am a new hobbyist and am just cycling my first reef tank! I went to my LFS to purchase my live rock, and noticed some interesting hitchhikers. I have done some research and believe one is an Aiptasia anemone- and have read it is recommended to nip those in the bud. But don’t know what the...
Looking to purchase some live rock and/or live sand to build my tank. Trying to go with live rock and sand to help with the cycling. If you have a good website you have purchased from you recommend too I’ll take that. I been searching around but all the info can be very over whelming. Thanks in...
