Wow, I have never seen the arrowhead crab be agreesive. I have seen him poke at some fish but not agreesively. I really want to get another one, but I will ask more questions as to if they have been trained to eat other than copepods. When we put him in the tank I immediately added copepods...

My husband picked this fish up so I don't know the paticulars as to how it was eating. He did not look too thin when it arrived, but sometimes its hard to tell, and I immediately put copepods in the tank because I had read up on how difficult it is to feed them. I agree that it must have been...

Not sure this is the right place to put this post but I am very new. I have brown dust algae all over my rocks and sand only on the right side of my tank. The rest of the tank is fine. Any ideas as to why this is only on the right side. Can't seem to get rid of it. Here are some pics. The first...
