    Anyone had experience with sleeper gold head gobies?

    I have a lid, so there's one good thing(: the clown goby seems pretty bold for its size, I saw him chase away the 2 chromis for some of the food I was giving them haha! I don't have a fuge, but I plan on feeding brine and mysis shrimp, and probably some flakes or pellets in there.(: thanks for...

    So here is our test numbers for today: Ph: 8.0 Ammonia: 0 Nitrite: 0 Nitrate: 20 We tested the salinity:1.032, but then we added RO water & then it was 1.028 Do I still need to add ammonia to get it to go up? Thanks!(:

    1.5 gallon tank!

    If I use the Walstad method, don't I need some kind of water movement? What could I use that would work in the 1.5 gallon tank? Could I just put some gravel and plastic plants and get some RCS? Or would betta work better? Do they both need a filter? Thank you so much!
