Lol yeah your cleaner molted

Lol thats what i hate about shrimp, they never go out and look for food instead they steal it from corals or anemones. I had a rbta and my cleaner always tried to steal food but always jumped back.. I guess he got shocked but that never stopped him. Notorious thiefs.

I bought a mandarin that was eating foods at the lfs. I saw hi feed Brine shrimp and pellets, the mandarin poked at each of them. Then when i got it home.. It starved to death. I tried all frozen foods available, even went as far to buy squid and one other frozen carnivore food. He wouldnt...

I was thinking of adding a serpent, but i read that they will eat fish that are sleeping.

I Only have 2 ceriths and 2 nassarius snails and 1 huge turbo in my 55 gallon aquarium. Do you guys think i need more of the cerith/nass? i gave up on crabs since they love killing my expensive cerith snails for the shells.. I only have 1 small blue leg with 20+ multiple free shells for him. But...

I have some on 2 pieces of live rock i purchased from my lfs, my huge turbo ignores it. I need help on this matter too... Tagging along.

I was at the store yesterday, there were 4 damsels. There were 2 small ones and 2 bigger ones. I was tempted to buy the smallest one that was getting bullied.. He never showed any aggression either. This thread made me not take a chance on it... I really like their blue color.

One thing my hawk does that i hate... Ever since i introduced him to my tank he always squeezes inbetween the overflow and back on my aquarium. I scared him away from that spot three times.. He goes to the nearest rock watches me, then turns around and looks at the spot i just scared him away...

So far my new longnose is on the other side of the tank and hasnt paid any attention to my cleaner, my hawkfish wont even eat some thawed shrimp i put in the tank too.. So hopefully thats a good sign. He ignores pellets but he does chase down the flakes. I hate using flakes, but i guess i will...

What kind of light do you have? Phosphates?

Souds similar to what my wild caught perc clown had, im not exactly sure if it is though.. Without pics cant be too sure. But what i did was just net my fish and let him swim around in a small bucket of fresh ro/di water or lay in it (she laid in it the first time, the disease was causing...

I added a percula and a occeleris (mispelled). They were both labeled as occelerris at my lfs, i found out one was a true perc and took the O back... They both did get along great too.. Afterwords i found a Small true perc and added him in my 55 along with my established one. They both get...

Yea i was looking at a school of those in my lfs monday morning. They look like boring fish lol.. Im picky of what i add. Besides the bright color of damsels, they are always on the move swimming and darting between rocks.

I wanted a blue fish, since a blue tang would get too big for my tank. I guess i will pass on the damsel

Yea i slowly dripped acclimated him. He is always out in front swimming, extremely healthy. He just doesnt eat food, he just pecks at rocks and theglass all day in search of pods. Im not afraid of him dieing, he is no where near sick. He just doesnt eat anything i feed the tank.
