in a 10 gallon tank, what are my options as far as predators that will be happy in there and have enough room while not eating my other corals? (all I have is some polyps and some mushrooms but Im thinking about adding 1 more coral just not sure what yet) I also have a damsel in there and a...

Ive had this tank set up for a little over a year now, and about 6 months ago one of these things popped up, at least 6 months since my last addition to the tank. Now theres quite a few of them. Im really curious as to what they are so I can make sure to give them what they need because their...

stick the end in a crevice on a rock so it stays or prop it up and it will anchor itself over time

its not a swingarm style its a lab style floating hydrometer Im not worried about reading it wrong because I use the same style of hydrometer in a lab I work at where we use it to analyze soil samples. The one I have is calibrated at 60 degrees Farenheit. I was just wondering if the correction...

Still battling ich, lost my trigger today because he scratched too much. This is a fish only tank with no liverock or inverts of any kind, Im going to try hypo. Ive read that the SG should be at 1.009 I bought a nice floating SG gauge and Im ready to go, I just added the first stage of fresh...

My fiance has fallen in love with cowfish, we currently have a 55 gallon aquarium with a huma trigger and a damsel and I just started what will be a 10 gallon reef tank when it is done cycling. Would a cowfish be suitable for either of these or do we need to hold off on that one until we get a...

Is Rid-Ich+ ok?

My domino damsel is covered in tiny white specks, Im thinking it may be ich, but I dont know too much about it.

anyone?

yes I run it all the time and changed it out last week

title says it all. In the morning and night it is clear and during the day it is cloudy. Its been doing this for the last few days. Water parameters are good. Any ideas? Tank is about 2-3 months old

my striped damsel did the same thing. I turned on the light and he didnt move and his white stripes were almost black, I thought he was dead. He swimmming happily now

I got a huma trigger last week, I got a small one because the bigger ones were alot more expensive. He's in a 55 galln tank right now with a couple damsels. How fast do these guys grow? Im really excited for him to get bigger. Also Im looking for a good hawain sounding name for him. Any ideas?

fry In my experience with molly fry, unless you put them in a seperate tank or breeding net, the fish will eat quite a bit of them. You can pick up the breeding nets for around $5 at petsmart. My mollies have around 80 each time, and without separating the fry, I only have about 20 left.

well its not going to stay fish only that why I want the lights. Thanks for the quick answer
