thanks!

Can someone clarify what the difference is between and Astrea and a Turbo Snail? i am looking to put together a cleanup crew! thanks!

I think I might be losing my mind picking out a cleanup crew! so many opinions. I'm thinking of the following for my now cycled fish-only 72 gallon with about 70 pounds of live rock and a deep sand bed (5+"): 50 Astrea (are these also known as turbo snails?) 20 Cerieth 12 Scarlet...

razor works great - thanks!

Good to know I can spend my money on the AC which broke today :(

I am in the process of cycling my first marine tank :) Unfortunately the hot weather has been driving the temperature on the second floor up (even with the central AC on) resulting in an 82 degree tank. I was thinking of getting a water chiller since I would like to try a reef someday. Any...

I'm in the process of getting my first salt water tank up and running :D I moved the fresh hater fish out of the 72 bow and moved them into their newly designed home which is a 46 bow front in the living room. Now that they are happily exploring it is time to get the 72 operational again. I...
