    Anemone into a creavice!

    I'm a newbie with anemones too. I just got through reading that they sometimes behave that way before splitting. I would not attempt to move it as it will come back out on it's own in time. Here's a good site to visit when you have anemone questions........what to do when they spilt...

    Frogfish in 29Gal/ frag

    I kept a frogfish in a 29 gallon for 6 months and he did just fine. I just recently moved him into his new home, a 55 gallon. Just be sure there are no tankmates with him and that you only feed him 3 to 4 times a week. A good skimmer is also a good idea and regular water changes......HTH...

    Yellow Tang Diet

    My daughter has a yellow tank that eats the dried nori and some of the chaetomorpha algae she keeps in her main tank. It also eats frozen PE mysis. It's mainstay is the algae but it needs daily protein too for a balanced diet.

    bicolor dottyback vs. yellowtail damsel...

    In my experience, yellow-tailed damsels are pretty passive compared to other types and should not be housed with aggressive tankmates.......

    jawfish compatibilit

    Personally, I'd remove the damsel if you like the jawfish and want him to get established......they do best with more passive tankmates and are prone to jump out of uncovered tanks. You probably already know he needs a deep sandbed (3 + inches minimum) and lots of building materials to...

    cleaner shrimp

    I have an 18" long pair of hemostats that I use for feeding corals, my pair of fire shrimp, and my sally lightfoot crab. Mine must be spoiled because I feed them a piece of krill or silverside every day:) They come right up to the hemostats and wait for me to release it into their little...

    majano anemone?

    My friend has a bi-color angel in her tank.......he keeps all the mojano anemones at bay by eating them......there are none in her main tank now....just in the sump. Don't know how big your tank is but that might be a solution for you.

    Skilter 250 Modifications

    It's been a while since a had a Skilter but I quieted mine down by simply adding a wooden airstone on a piece of air line tubing to the cylinder that produces foam. I unhooked the venturi hose that came with the Skilter and removed it. You can lift that center tube up off the base, shove the...
