Re: is keeping sharks as pets allowed?

Don't sharks like that require a huge tank, like a small pool or something? I mean, they're meant to swim long distances, right? Keeping them in a regular tank would be like keeping a dog in a tiny box.

True, but hey, competition ain't always bad. Makes the tough plants tougher. Just sayin'.

Re: why are my plants not spreading?

Yeah, and don't freak out if they take forever. My Java Fern took like 6 months to finally start spreading. These plants got their own weird vibe, man.

Re: why are my plants not spreading?

Yo, creekie, maybe your light's too weak. That Aquasky ain't exactly a powerhouse. I had the same issue till I upgraded to a Nicrew. Also, you gonna need more than just Flourish, try some root tabs if you got any substrate.

Re: what plants handle warm water?

Bruh, if you wanna go wild, try Duckweed. It'll cover the whole surface in a week. Warm water's like crack for that stuff. Just don't blame me when you're scoopin' it out forever.

Yo, my tank's a sauna at 85°F and my Hornwort's goin' wild. That stuff grows like it's on steroids. Just toss it in and let it vibe. Sand substrate, basic LED lights, no CO2. Easy peasy.

Feeding tips for Mushroom Corals

My Mushroom Corals aren't looking too hot lately. I've been feeding them reef roids once a week, but they're still kinda shriveled. Tank's a 40 gallon breeder, running a Kessil A360X, params are 0 ammonia, 0 nitrite, 5 nitrate, salinity at 1.025. Any tips to get 'em plump again?

Torch coral unhappy, but other euphyllia are fine

Hey everyone, so my torch has been in a funk for about a week now. Still no tissue loss, but it's just really compact. The tentacles aren't deflated, just retracted most of the time - used to be a lot fuller and sway in the current. Color's still looking good, no visible skeleton. My other corals ...
