Seriously? I've never had problems with emeralds. I would understand if you said sally lightfoot crabs.

my regal tank loves the red cyno! Too bad it's all gone now....not really i'm glad to see it go. If you have ever wanted a tang maybe a regal is the tang for you. I have snails too but they don't go on sand, that's where my problem was and that's the tang ate.

My problem is on the lower half of my live rock. I'd love to buy a small tang, but I don't think my 30G tank is big enough for one. :sad:

you need to export more nutrients than you are importing. phosphates must be reduced or you are just masking the issue. fuge & phosar with a reactor at least. reduce feedings, too.

"Lights off for three days" - Can someone find the original thread that had the method of doing this?

Thanks.
