Re: Growing symphyllia successfully
We've had a great experience with our Symphyllia, a large one at 10-12 inches, and it's proven to be very hardy. A few accidental frags were created when moving it, and those have done well too - they've been sold and the buyers have reported back with positive updates. Based on this limited ...

Re: Identifying potential issues with brain coral growth
I'm not too worried about it, looks healthy enough to me at this point.

Re: share your fishy tales
One of my most memorable mishaps was when I accidentally left my external filter off for 12 hours - I completely forgot to switch it back on. When I finally realized my mistake, I quickly turned it back on, but unfortunately, it almost led to disaster with a sulfur spike. Luckily, I only lost my ...

Re: Australian elegance coral
You'll also want to consider adding some larger food items to the mix, such as silverside or krill - I've found my elegance can handle surprisingly substantial chunks of food.

Re: Bahama mamma chalice coral
I figured you could still reach out to the seller, see if they have another one or something, since the auction didn't go through.

Re: identifying the mystery fish
Got a few pics to share, not the best quality I know. Fish is still in the bag, acclimating to the quarantine tank - I'll try to get some more pics once it's settled in. So, here's the story - the fish store ordered black/gold chromis, but got one spot damsels instead and this guy. They weren't ...

Re: beginning a salt water aquarium setup?
I'd agree with the previous advice to consider a larger tank if possible. When it comes to marine tanks, bigger is generally better.
Here's a basic list of equipment you'll need:
A tank and stand is a good place to start. Lighting is also crucial - you can choose between T5 or Halide, depending ...

Re: Cleaner shrimp picking at acan heads
Our experience with skunk cleaners in our 280 has been that they can be quite aggressive. Normally, they're after food, especially post-feeding, but we've also seen them bothering our LPS at other times. No noticeable harm so far, though.

Re: lionfish care and dwarf species
Dwarf lions are perfectly fine in a 50g tank, and a 75g would be more than enough. If you're thinking of keeping multiple lions, I'd say it's doable, but stick to different species. Three dwarfs could work in a 50g, while a 75g could handle one of the larger species, like a radiata. Keep in mind ...
