  3. make up water

    since starting my 125 gallon reef tank with 25 gallon fuge i have been adding aprox 2.5 gallons of make up water per day. There seems to be high humidity in my house so I bought a dehumidifier. Ironically it pulls about 2 gallons of water per day out of the air in the room. My question is "can I use the condensed water as makeup water? It must be pure water. Thanks Kitch
  4. Are you smart enough for this?

    I came across an interesting interview with Giacomo Bernardi, professor of ecology and evolutionary biology at the University of California, Santa Cruz, while listening to one of my favorite podcast, Science Sort Of..., and I wanted to share it with community at ReefAddicts. They talk about the unusual behavior of a particular wrasse that was observed in nature. It is the first fish ever reported to use tools!
    Here is the link to the podcast episode which I strongly recommend everyone listen

  5. Firefish...

    I just added a common firefish to my tank. What can I expect in terms of behavior and habits?
    So far it's just been hanging out in front of a flow pump. I'm just glad it hasn't jumped out...
    It's eating well and not fighting. Do they adapt well to reef tanks...?
