Ok thanks

Can ich attack inverts ?? I think i'm in the starting stages of a ich attack, and currently qt'd the main culprit.

Just throw some of your LR in the qt tank. It'll still keep all your established bacteria on the LR.

Its stays pretty consistent down there. Its the first vent that comes out of our furnace and AC unit. I'll just keep the tank empty for a couple days and moniter the temp, and keep a spare heater handy.

wow thanks !! great reply !!! i'll ask the SW experts over there about the salinity levels. I don't plan on adding much to the tank. Really just some substrate (not sure if even that) and some PVC for hiding spots. i'll put the HOB filter in the middle to keep flow high, if not i always have...

Hi all, i'm new to FW (but have a SW tank for about 6 months now, and its thriving !!!) and I want to set up a 20g long tank to keep my feeders in. I'm looking at only keeping ghost shrimp and some mollies. My plan is to get this tank brackish, with a salinity around 1.009 or so. I've skimmed...

I had this when I started my tank up. Just put your hand in the tank, or use your scrubber and it should come right off.

I usually resort to liveaquaria, but I didn't see anything on picking certain colors/regions. I'd like to see a black or white one in person though.

So they are Mithrax crabs commonly called emerald ??

He's a GS maroon, about 2" bigger than my dwarf lion. My dwarf is only about 1 1/2" right now. I know eventually i'm going to have to upgrade my tank.

Is there a difference ?? Curiousity got the best of me while looking in my tank today. I'm thinking it has to do with region they are collected from ?? I'm really not trying to spam the boards, just curious...

Ok thanks for clearing that up. I only feed one fish, my clown the frozen food. My Antennata Lionfish gets the live food. That package could last me close to a year :D

I currently have 2 FW/SW mollies in my tank for the past week and a half. They were meant to be food for my Antenneta lion, but he's not that interested in them right now. He ate the ghost shrimp (10 in a 3 day window) but isn't interested in the mollies. He'll stalk them, but lost interest...

Can you feed Rods food for each feeding ? I currently have my clown on a 6 day rotation. Feeding every other day, sometimes every three days a different kind of food. It could be Formula 1 or 2, Mussels frozen, cyclopeeze, mysis, or brine. I was reading what Rods was made out of and it seems...

Congrats Neilanh !!! Tank looks great too !!
