I think its actually 6 months to get the scroll of resurection. I went that route when I started up again. I made a new tauren pally and boosted him to 80. Man what was I doing playing hunters that whole time. haha. Pally's suit my style much better. I haven't played in a while due to college...

lol all of these monsters are just in time for holloween! 

 see! we told you! Things always work out in the end   glad to hear things are going well!

the corals will lose all of their color and turn white. I'm not sure if you can kill a coral by this but It will just look like dead rock anyways. I don't see why you couldn't use a plug in dimmer but keep in mind that you may never use the full power of the lights

you could try doing a custom shallow tank, like reefers have their tidal pool tanks. That way you wouldn't need shoulder length gloves and you can still have larger tanks

Very sorry to hear about your bad luck   I always tell myself two things when I'm down in the slumps.   1) From every ending starts a new beginning.   2) Be like a triangle!    I say number 2 because a triangle is the strongest structural shape there is and I'm a nerd  so it correlates pretty...

I've heard good things about these lights but honestly your going to what a dimmable LED light if you switching. You risk bleaching your corals and possibly killing them. Honestly I would go with this light here. I will be buying two of these unless I go the DIY route. They have great reviews...

Well I enjoy wood working quite a bit. My love for it started freshman year with my first shop class. So far I've made the bed that I sleep in everynight, a toy semi truck, and my TV cabinet that's in my room. I entered the semi truck and TV stand at the county fair in the open class and they...

I also plan on adding one to my setup but not for a very long time. So as long as you've done your research and know your tank is ready that would be just fine. If you want to do some quick research on the fish you listed, check out liveaquaria.com. they have good info and maybe you'll find a...

You need a larger tank for the tangs, The need a 75 gallon at least. Id go with one of the angels, Personally I'd choose the flame over the coral if you want corals but either one is a 50/50 at nipping at your corals. Regarding your other stock list. No to the Dragonet, they need a very mature...

This is really cool! I haven't seen anyone make a crab only tank before. Its a neat idea!

thank you! As you can see I have some algea problems right now but thats all my fault. I have the lighting period way to long but I just keep forgetting to change it lol I'm pretty happy with my light though, the plants seem to be doing well, I haven't noticed any real growth yet but It hasn't...

alright well Here is a little update. Everyone is doing very well. But I also have some sad news. I'm going to be taking this tank down in the next month or so and setting up my new 75 gallon. I've decided to get rid of this tank and go with saltwater in my new tank. I figure if any time to...

Well I guess its been a while since I've updated this lol Well I planted the tank a few weeks ago, here are some picks of when I first did It. I added some cuttings from my 45 gallon and some cardinal plants as well. Le me know what you guys think!    

is he into sports or any bands or plays or anything? I know my family does a lot with tickets and they are always a great gift because each time is a different experience! Like last christmas we got my grandparents tickets to tour Lambeau Field and they thought it was the coolest present ever...

Well actually i believe its both. You need to have good flow in your aquarium for filter feeds to bring food to them. Others like less flow and will do better in the lower current areas of the tank. Remember your tank will have its own current path, where some areas have high flow, other areas...

Alright well I talked to the LFS last night and she said that my tank will be here the middle of October so about the 18th.  Can't wait! While I was there I also ordered a pump and heater. The rest I will get online probably. I'm pretty convinced I'm going to try those TaoTronics as they seem to...

you got that right! I had a nightmare last night where the front glass on my tank started to separate and my 75 gallon wasn't going to be here for another three weeks! The fish store had just closed so I couldn't buy a new one let alone I was broke! it was terrible! Then my dad suggested we eat...

also have a look at aquatop heaters. I run one in my 10 gallon tank that sits on my night stand next to my bed and I don't ever hear it. Other wise I run a aqueon in my 45 and its silent unless you turn it at any angle other than up and down.

Well I think the average flow rate of an aquarium is 20x turnover rate. This leads  me to believe that anything under is low, and anything above is high. But like you said It could also depend on where the coral is placed in the flow. behind a piece of rock will slow the flow but placing the...

I've heard about bad salt mixes causing problems like this, did you use the same salt from the same batch? Otherwise it could be you water 

  This has to be the most true statement I've heard about fish keeping. I think that out right defines our hobby. Part of the fun is the reward of knowing that you've provided a good home for the fish and given them a good life. 

now I'm new an all to this coral game but I'll take a shot though there is a 90% chance I'm wrong but it looks like some sort of xenia?

It really is starting to come together now! 

ah I see that goes back to the beginners advice of having the largest tank possible. I don't think that the LFS has a skimmer on their tanks though. But I will still mention to them about the possible danger. Though she keeps sea cucs all the time because she loves how much algea that they eat...

Hmm I might have to have a talk with the LFS warning them of tales of them nuking a system. They run 2 40 gallon breeders per system with a water trough as a sump with lots of live rock in it and a return pump. She only had 3 medusa worms and In one tank though so hopefully they will be alright.

I've heard that garden hoses can leach bad stuff into your aquarium. I'd take the safe route and get some conventional aquarium tubing. Depending on where you are try the local hardware store they should have some clear tubing with nylon thread inside of it, I know that its normally cheaper and...

Alright well the only thing I can deduce from the pictures is this. That little tiny bit that the tank is sitting over the edge caused the crack. All it takes is the slightest over hang, remember thats hundreds of pounds of pressure on that edge. Also I think that will have to be replaced. As...

well it certainly doesn't sound like its the stand's fault. I'm thinking that it was a chip that wasn't noticed and caused the break. As far as pictures I like to use Imageshack, just upload copy the forum link and paste. Pretty easy and free too. Bodge said it best though. Its always better to...

I was going to say, my LFS just got some medusa worms in last week and she said they were supposed to be reef safe.. They are ugly little buggers though and really slow too lol But i guess they do good things for your reef?

what kind of stand is it on? It shouldn't just start to shatter on a proper stand. Can you post pics of the crack? This will help us get a better idea of what you are dealing with. The pane may have to be replaced or just seal it with some silicone. But those pictures would help us help you 

ohh ok, I would just put some live rock rubble in the empty compartment for the extra filtration. You shouldn't need anything else in there

  Hello and  to TTF! My name is Sputnick and I'll be your host for this... lol     From the info given I'm guessing you have a sump on your tank correct? Or what kind of filter do you have?    If you have a sump, depending on the size of the empty compartment you can turn it into a refugium. I...

no clue on the species of hermits.. I only planned on getting a few emerald crabs, 2-3 maybe and for snails the LFS has snails that go everywhere and plow under the gravel and have a little perascope looking thingy sticking out. I assume those are Nassarius snails. Thanks for the tip on the...

Alright well I think I've got everything for the tank figured out. Now I want to get some sort of Idea of what to tell the LFS to order for me  Now my two favorite fish are the Mandarin dragonets and Flame Angelfish   I don't plan on getting Mandarins until I've got at least a year or so of...

hmmmm... will it be a mantis shrimp?

Alright Thanks Donya so much! I should be able to achieve almost 30x turnover pretty easily. I do hope more people will come across this thread and help with the sump. I also need advice on the refugium part. For Lighting I like the multiple cords, and dimmability of those TaoTronics and think I...

Rummy Nose are what they live with in the wild which would be cool

Well I did some quick searching and I think I found the light that Just might be the perfect fit for my Budget. Dimmable, and separate power cords. I like that   It also has excelent reviews. I was thinking about two of these hanging over my tank? Or would I only need one? Should I start off...
