I have a rainbow wrasse that appeared to have the coloring of a female per a book I have on fishes. Now it seems the stripes are disappearing and the fish is now becoming a male. More colorful on the head and tail. I have had the wrasse since January and only have one wrasse. Is this weird...

I want to get rid of the cannister filter and would like to know how much live rock would be needed for 50 gal tank. I have about 50 lbs in there right now, an AquaC Remora Skimmer with the 1200 pump and two additional 1200 maxijet pumps set up in each corner. Cannister filter is an XP? for...

Upscales in Tualatin has live rock, pretty pricey for what you get. 8O Next time I will get my rock from Liverocks.com which seems to be the where the majority of folks on this site get their rock from and from what I have read, all seem very happy with it.

I have a orange spotted Goby, sometimes referred to as a Diamond Goby, does a teriffic job of sifting the sand and is quite a pleasure to watch. He has not bothered the peppermint shrimp and gets along quite well with the wrasse, they are often found lying next to each other.

Hi, I have a 50 gal FOWLR. I currently have a Aqua C Remora skimmer with 1200 maxi jet as well as two Maxi Jet 1200 power heads. The power heads are set up in two different corners about 2 inches below the water line. Is this too much water circulation for my size tank? Thanks for nay info.

My Yellow Tang which I have had for 3 months now appears to have a few small pin head black dots over body and fins. Is this a form of ICK? and what is the best treatment. Other fish appear fine and show no signs of black spots. Any help is appreciated.

Thankyou! I will keep the forum posted on my success or failure.

One of my fish came down with ICK. (NO I did not quarrantine him, I was very impatient. ) Well, yesterday I went and bought a QT tank and moved him to it. I had to remove every single piece of live rock from the tank to get to him which was quite an ordeal. Most of my rock has little caves...

missing fish Rainbow wrasse found swimming happily in the tank. :D I guess he was under the sand. I got rather concerned that he did not come out from wherever he was at feeding time this a.m. when the other fish were feeding and was no where to be found in the rockwork. Thanks for your...

Good Morning. I just purchased a 3 inch Rainbow Wrasse yesterday and this morning I cannot find him. :cry: He is bigger than the other fish and cannot for the life of me figure out where is is. I took all the stuff out of the back of the cabinet to see if he may have jumped out and landed on...

I just purchased a dwarf halfblack angel and my Yellow Tang keeps chasing/swiping his tail at the dwarf. :( is this natural behavior for the Tang? The Tang has been the King of the tank for a while and gets along just nicely with the other fish ( 2 clowns) :D Thanks.

my tank has been set up for a month. PH is 8.2; N02 0; N03 10; 3/4 is 0. I currently have one small yellow tang and two small clownfish, 2 turbo snails and 5 small hermit crabs. Plan on adding over the next 6 months or so one regal tang, a diamond goby, dwarf angel of some sort and a...

I have a 50g fish only with live rock. Any suggestions on a starfish, or is the tank not appropriate for a starfish. :?
