What the heck is this?

So I was peering into my reef using the flashlight on my phone - as you do at 11:30 in the evening, and I saw this thing swimming freely around. No idea what it is, and it looked like it was up to no...

Dry rock cycle

The rock I ordered from you arrived, and I have to say it's amazing stuff, light, porous, interesting shapes - I wish I'd been able to start out with this stuff instead of that unpleasant DIY rock...

Thanks!

I'm hoping that they'll hang on until the new rock arrives - it's on order, you're right it looks like good stuff.

Montipora Eating Nudibranchs

Sometime in June or July my tank came down with the dreaded Montipora eating Nudibranchs. I tried to suck them off the corals, but they just kept coming back. As a last ditch I tossed the corals that...
