hey everyone! i just have a question about some mushrooms i have a rock with 7 different large mushroom corals on it. unfortunately, one of them jumped off and went into the back, and i'm afraid the others might do the same, because i've had this happen before with some different mushrooms...

well, woke up this morning and it was dead. this is my fourth lionfish....never had luck with them, looks like i'm not going to try any more. the longest i had one was 4 months and it was really healthy, then it died when i had to move. thanks anyway guys

well, its tale today is looking pale in comparison to the rest of his colors. i think he has ich i gotta get a nitrate test kit, i'll figure it out tomorrow :(

my salinity is 1.023-1.025, right around that area. i don't have a PH test kit, but it should be at least 8.0 considering a decent size partial water change i've recently done. he's chillin on a different rock now, still breathing kinda heavy it looks like. i put another live ghost shrimp in...

well....today i tried to feed him some ghost shrimp. i put them in with the lights out, and frankly i am 95% sure he just ignored them. later on (6 hours later) i came home, turned the tank lights on to see 3 ghost shrimp carcasses. i found one of the shrimp still alive actually, and my lionfish...

lol i just attempted to wave the silverside near his face, bad idea lol! he just fans himself out and goes on the defense. i will order some feeder ghosts and use those, and hopefully gain his trust soon!

yeah i definitely knew that feeder gold fish were bad, i was never even going to do that. its unfortunate, the feeder ghost shrimp at my LFS look like completely crap. i was thinking they could see the feeding stick too!! i'll try my fingers next time. i just hope he doesn't go hungry until he...

yeah i know, i put way too much stuff in there at once. fortunately the tank is cycled last i checked. i did decide to hold off on the LR thx!

heylo everyone. i just got a dwarf zebra lionfish from doctor fosters and smith a few days ago. just to keep it alive and healthy i am feeding it live feeder guppies for now, but i have also been trying hard to get it to eat prepared food like silversides and krill. however, i put a dozen...

it is a 37 gallon aquarium, all i have fishwise is a medium size maroon clownfish. i have a lot of liverock in there, full to the top, i just need one piece to put in the corner to fill a gap in the top corner, for i just moved a piece out to put in my smaller 12 gallon tank. the lionfish is...

i have discovered several small white pods underneath a piece of live rock. anyone know what these are? here is a picture

yes i had one that i let live in my tank for 2 months or so until i found out the detrimental effects of having one. i just took that entire piece of liverock out and let it dry out in the sun, and added it to my dry rock collection :D hey if pepperment shrimp eat the small ones, i have a...

hello everyone! i recently moved a fishtank from a house to my new appartment probably about 3 weeks ago. i had a lot of the liverock sitting dry for possibly up to two hours during the move. i've already added 4 new corals, a cardinal shrimp and a starfish to the load within the last 3 weeks...

hello everyone. i am thinking about getting a peacock mantis shrimp. i have read a lot about them and i have an acrylic tank with live rock and about 2 inches of crushed coral sand and a pvc pipe tube. the tank is cycled and soon i'll be ready to put the mantis in as soon as i can acquire one...

hello all! i have registered here a long time ago and it's been a moment. i have a slight dillema, though i'm not too concerned i figured i would ask for other opinions on the matter. i just moved in with my girlfriend, and she just got rid of two of her cats. i am allergic to cats, and we...
