Sorry, I believe they're queen conchs.

I have 2 fighting conchs in my 75g. On at least 4 occasions I've seen them eating my astrea snails. Are they eating snails that couldn't right themselves and died, or are they killing them?

My LFS isn't interested. I would like to find them a good home. I guess I could try the not so LFS, but I don't do much business there.

I have 3 good sized purple urchins. I was hoping maybe someone would send me a frag or something in exchange for any or all of them. I would also be willing to give them away if you pay the shipping. Their bodies are about the size of a quarter, not including spines.

Definitely a possibility I hadn't considered. My dad does do some auto body work. I'll have to ask him about that.

This is what confused me. If it were a fish disease why would the sally lightfoot die? This is what led me to first suspect heater failure or stray current. Still haven't figured this one out.

Ammonia and nitrite 0. Nitrate not tested. PH 8.2. Topoff when necessary, w/c 5g every other week. RO water, salinity 1.024 with hydrometer. Temperature was adjusted to match tank water. Again, I can't think of any reason that this particular wc would have caused any dramatic swings, especially...

My dad has a 33 long with a golden headed sleeper, lawnmower blenny, clown goby, wheeler's goby some corals, hermits, snails etc. He woke up this morning to find 3 fish and a sally lightfoot dead. The corals, featherduster, hemits and snails are all fine. Also, the pistol shrimp and goby pair...

I have 2. I bought the first one about 9 months ago and it's doing great. When I got it it was brownish-red like a mushroom and about 2-2.5 inches across. It' now about 4" and has taken on a beautiful greenish blue color. It really looks nice under moonlight. It has hosted an anemone shrimp and...

I currently have 260w of PC consisting of 2 65w actinic and 2 65w 12K. I still have the original single bulb NO fixture that came with the tank, I figure I might as well use it. What color bulb would you add to this combo. More actinic? 20K? Moonlight? 50/50? TIA.

Thanks. After doing some research it appears to be waminoa sp. 1.

I recently purchased a nice assorted mushroom rock at the LFS. Several of the polyps have small reddish spots on them about the size of a match head. The other day I noticed they were actually raised bumps on the polyps and not part of the mushroom itself. I was amazed to see them move! They...

I have a 42g hex w/ 2 false percs, lawnmower blenny, twin spot goby, bangaii cardinal, cleaner shrimp, emerald crab, sally lightfoot, and some snails and hermits. I recently noticed my emerald crab was down to 4 legs, 3 on one side and 1 on the other. Last night I noticed my sally lightfoot...
