Agreed- normal PVC glue is fine. But if you are gluing PVC to bulkheads you may need to use a different glue for PVC and ABS, as that's what bulkheads tend to be made of. You'll find this glue right...

This is what I feed my fish. There are lots of other options out there too. People have compared brine to potato chips for fish- delicious, but not so nutritious!

Hopefully they will settle things out. I've had these things go both ways- sometimes they peacefully co-exist, and sometimes they don't.

As for your water quality- it's always worth checking...

What kind of clowns are they? Not all clowns will host, seems to be an individual thing, though some species seem more inclined than others. I have an ocellaris who has never hosted in anything, but...

I agree, and with these things I'm sure you're dealing with pretty low volumes produced. The danger is the accumulation if the tank equipment is in an out of the way place in the basement like mine...

I don't have any experience with the biodenitrator but can I do know a little bit about H2S from the job. 10 ppm is the maximum concentration you can be exposed to during an 8 hour work day, so H2S...

I've got 7 buckets (5 to 7 gal) that you could use. I'd like to have them back afterwards but you can have them as long as you need them. PM me to make arrangements. By the way I'm near downtown.

Keep the rocks at normal tank conditions. That will minimize die-off. Too long out of the water and you will be left with just rock!

Thanks Mark.

To the other Mark- here is a link to a similar discussion from a couple of years ago that will answer your question, but basically 1500W is about as high as you should go on a single...

Yep, that's my experience. Whether you mix different species or not, I think your best bet is to get them when they are juveniles, but I have found different species have always fought.

I gave it a try since some reefers had reported being able to keep these 'relatively peaceful' clowns together but it didn't work so well for me. The three skunks set up their family and all slept in...

My experience is similar. I used to have 3 skunks and an ocellaris in a 92g bow front (about 3' across) and the skunks had the ocellaris cowering in the corner. They let him live but I don't think he...

Rona has white ceiling light panels of various types. They have flat white plastic sheets about 1/8" thick in 2' x 2' and 2' x 4' sizes which I think would work well.

A syringe full of boiling water delivered straight to the gut has worked for me. Other options are Joe's Juice or a peppermint shrimp, but I haven't found those as reliable.
