I've just noticed a small amount of this white webbing on the sand around a rock in my tank. Is this a normal type of algae? I was gone for a week and a cousin was feeding them...it isn't a disease or anything is it?
Thanks a million!
I can't say I know an extreme amount about all this yet. But when I set my tank up I did have my filter running and the water was cloudy for a day and then settled down. But I put live sand in so that probably increased the cloudyness but it is supposed to also help the cycle get going.
Live...
Thanks I'll tell her. She probably hasn't checked that...should I tell her to buy a hang on the back one? Is there something she could do as far as the Nitrates are concerned? I need to tell her to get on here, you guys are great.
While we are speaking of filters by hang on the back is a...
I have no idea of how many fish she has or the actual size, we are three states away. :( I think she has a few pieces of live rock she bought all individually not too long ago. Her filter sits on the bottom under all the crushed coral from what I understand. I don't know anything about...
My sister has a salt water tank she has had since around August...she got me wanting one.
She called today and said she had the water tested because she needed to get a new testing kit and the guy at the store said just bring some water in they will do it.
These are the levels he gave her...
I was thinking about getting a star fish and someone posted this link about drip acclimation for me.
It was great help...I was clueless as to how to do it. You might try this so that you don't have your fish keep passing away.
HTH
I can't say I know much...but I know that in my tank the bangaii cardinal and perc clowns are fine together. Mine pretty much ignored each other because "Spike" (cardinal) was pretty laid back and didn't do much of anything.
I decided on the perc clown fish simply because I read so many awful...
It is only one fish. I took him back to the LFS and bought some Rid Ich to put in the tank. The guy at the fish store said that it was in the early stages and just to treat the main tank. I hope this is correct seeing as I've never delt with Ich before.
He took the sick fish back and gave me...
About the Mount Wannahawkaluggie....my sister found one at a Petco near her house in Texas but it had different colors of lava "flowing". She also got the treasure chest w/ bubbles there...her tang doesn't react the same as Bubbles does in the movie....
I have one damsel at the moment, he/she sometimes looks lighter/paler when the lights come on in the morning. It generally goes away after getting used to the light, I've never worried about mine. I think it is normal...maybe not the swimming backwards thing...but like you I am new at this. I...
He was put in a small QT tank but I only left him there for two days because there really isn't much in there and he looked sort of lonely. (Dumb reason I know!)
But the bumps are a white color and are raised in a line between the two stripes. There had been two bumps when I posted, this...
I just got a new clown fish and between his first two white stripes he has bumps that look somewhat like a pimple. The guy at the LFS didn't know what it was and thought maybe it was genetic. I am just worried that it may be ick.
all help would be appreciated!
I didn't know they would eat snails...I also have 3 very small hermit crabs that would probably go before the snails. As long as he gets fed I don't think he would harm anything from what I've read.
So I'm most likely going to go ahead with one this weekend when I have time to introduce him...
I have a fish only tank...so I don't think he could be too harmful. I think they are pretty cute so as long as he won't hurt the fish...but how do I feed them?
Thanks for the websites I'll check them out!
