Does anyone know if it's safe to put a moon Wrasse in a tank with a shrimp, or will that be dinner?

Cheers! Look forward to hearing that!

Valonia Problem I have a severe problem with an infestation of Valonia in my Reef Tank. Brief summary of tank: Approx 735 litres (200 gallons) tank with refrugium. Temp about 25 – 26 degrees C (78 F). Has a U.V. filter, protein skimmer, chiller, 2 heaters. Phosguard in the...

Thanks matie, appreciate your replies.

That would work but what do you do with the corals? Even if you chipped them off and put them somewhere else for a while there would be tiny amounts of glass bubble agae there somewhere, I'm sure I got mine off coral frags in the first place. Other than looking a bit of a nuisance, are they that...

I think it might be too late for the needle on the end of the siphon thing because there's thousands, it's a 200 gallon tank. My corals are all quite small so I'm hoping as they spread they'll shade out the green glass algae. I've got phosguard in one of the sump chambers , Caulerpra in my main...

Crikey that's a mystery. Phosphates and nitrates all zero I have 3 tangs and a foxface- wouldn't they pop them when eating them? There's zillions so it's impossibe to scrape them out. I tried o on one rock which I removed from the tank and rinsed after scraping, hey just grew back. Boo hoo!

I have Green Glassy bubble Algae spread throughout my tank. Is there any way of controlling this?

Hi I have a 200 gallon tank with lots of different fish, including 1 Bangai Cardinal. Can I get more of these? It says on some websites that cardinals can be aggessive towards their own species.

Will do! Thanks

Thanks, good advice.

3 weeks (or so) ago I did what the books say not to do and got a yellow tang abou 2 weeks after getting a purple tang. The purple immediately started beating up the yellow. About a week and a half ago I caught the purple tang and he's living in the sump (I've put some rock etc in there). How...

I had a severe brown stringy algae problem 2 weeks ago (water chem all good, no nasties) and I got rid of it by turning the lights off for 48 hrs (didn't hurt the corals) and then added a UV filter. No brown algae at all now. Thanks to all who offered suggetions.

I'm feeding Nori on a veggie clip.

My new Lieutenant tang has developed brown speckled patches over his body. He was only I the tank about a week. After about 2 days I finally managed to catch him and he is now in a quarantine tank dosed with copper. That was about 2 days ago and it seems to have spread more across his body, but...
