    Clowns and crabs have been in for four days and ammonia is up... please advise.

    Can diatoms survive?

    I was dealing with diatoms only on the sand bed. I'd siphon them out into a filter sock and put the water back into the tank and the sand into a pale. After time the diatoms were gone and I'm trying to narrow this down. - water change caused them to thrive again. -I put the dry sand back in...

I started with 9lbs of live rock and sand, and let it cycle for about 3 weeks (I was excited and rushed everything, but so far it's been okay) before putting in a domino damsel. I know he's way too big, but he wasn't a forever fish lol. He was fine so I got...

    EMERGENCY Help guys! Im new and made a critical mistake!

    I was looking at my tank today, and noticed something strange. It was what I've now identified as a vermitide snail (its picture below) However, I was scraping off the calcified tube from the bottom of the frag plug of my australian green tip bubble hammer (wall) and I accidentally dropped him...
