Tank sizes.

I know you have possibly made a decision on your sizing but any glass that is over 126" raises the cost exponentially.

Just to think about.

I honestly have no idea. Kevin won't look at the page, he is too busy playing Fabel 2?

Well something is off in my tank. I'm going to try a water change to see if it helps things. 7 of my clams aren't looking so hot. They have retracted mantles, and I think a couple might already be on their way out. This is very frustrating. One more crash or semi-crash type event will probably make me want to give up the hobby.

I'm fed up with my tank right now, and I'm trying to be patient and waiting for things to come back in their own time, but its hard. Its harder when there are more downs then ups.

Catherine, sorry for all the crap your getting with the tank... Well Im going say something and don't take to heart. why not slow down a bit. really thou if seems that your rushing to get this tank up and running really fast here, stocking the tnak with clams and tangs and this..... know your passion for the live stock. May be it time to just sit back and do a life check here.... I'm just giving you my opinion that is all.. Just seems you are running in to major negetivity here since the crashes... time to take a look on why..

I hope you get it all sorted out since you have a passion for clams and SPS

Hopefully nothing too major. I can offer tank space if, heaven forbid, you need it.

I think my salt went bad. I think something settled to the bottom of the salt itself. I usually shake buckets up before we use them, and I think maybe this one escaped the salt shake/mix.

I opened a new mixed bucket, did a WC, and have left the MHs on a little longer then usual right now; they were on for 8.5 hours today. Clams seem better.
