Hello, my clownfish ate some algae that had a speck of crushed coral from the sandbed attached to it.. it was then hanging from his mouth for a while. I didn't know what to do so I tried to attract him with food to pull it off, but when he ate the food he also ate the piece of crushed coral...

I'm using Instant Ocean salt... The test kit is Hagen. I change water at least once a month about 15-20%. And sometimes twice a month. I'm using the Chemi-Pure media in my filter and it keeps the water very clean... so that's why I thought once a month is ok. Salinity 1.024. Temp 80...

Hello, I have a fish-only aquarium and I'm using the Nutrafin KH/GH kit. I ended up adding 25 drops to get to the final value, leaving me with 250mg/L for KH. I never tested KH before. I only have two clownfish. I use RO water, but I've been using SeaChem PH 8.3 for my replacement water...

Well I just tested the water again, everything is at 0... I tried to get him to come out again, he came out and dove right back in less than a second... He didn't eat anything since Monday.. I dont think he has much time left. I have a 10G empty tank that I could turn into a QT and try...

I found two dead snails.. but I'm not sure when they died... Is there anything I can do for my wrasse or should I just leave it and hope it will come out?

Hi Everyone, yesterday my yellow wrasse failed to show up. I expected something is wrong so I tested the water and I had ammonia reading of 0.5 I swifted through the sand and found him.. he came out and hid behind a rock and stopped moving completely. He swam a tiny bit and wouldn't come out...

My Yellow wrasse hasn't had me around for 3 weeks.. Only been feeding it but not close to the tank. My desk is right next to the aquarium and ever since I started working again the wrasse has been going under the sand... Yesterday I vacuumed and it got really scared.. it has since been gone...

Well, I've seen bigger yellow wrasse. I'd say he's a medium, about 2 inch.. Liveaquaria says 30g is minimum so I thought it would be ok.. He doesn't do it all the time thankfully.. explores the tank mostly, but towards the end of the day he starts doing that.. maybe I should run the light a...

Hello, I've had my yellow wrasse for about a year.. recently (for about a two months actually) it had been getting angry at it's own reflection in the aquarium wall. It can clearly see itself and it turns and charges viciously at the glass. It also gets a black spot behind it's eye when it...

Hi, it's a 30 gallon tank with just two clownfish and some live rock. They're both false percula clownfish.. and they're good while I'm not next to the tank. they only fight when when i come close to the tank and they think I'll get food... They both try to go to the top and beg for food, but...

Hello, My Clownfish started fighting more and more violenty recently.. at first they didn't fight at all... then the 1st one in the tank started attacking the 2nd one when they saw me come by.. looks like it's attacking it so it won't get to the top where the food comes... Then this started...

Hello, my clownfish are always begging for food at the top of the tank... I tried feeding them more but they still do it?.. is this normal? I want to watch them swim around but instead they're always sticking their head out at the top waiting for food.. they even fight with each other...

See if you can get some Erythromicyn.. the LFS told me it cures a lot of internal dieseases.. it's good to have around just in case too, even if you buy it and it's too late. It looks like MelaFix won't do anything from the description I found of it.. You need a powerful antibiotic at this...

Well, I hope it all goes well for you... There's really not much you can do in a situation like this unfortunately.. and it really sucks.. I just went through the same thing. When I went to the store they gave me this stuff called Erythromicin, it's a broad antibiotic,.. maybe your clown has...

You have to try to get him to come to the surface.. If he eats thats usually the best way.. then just flick the net right over him.. My blenny just died today.. he was even eating a bit too.. but this is the time you might still be able to save that clown, later on he'll be all out of energy...

Ok, he's stuck on one rock now and breathing extremely fast.. he didn't even move from there at all the whole day and when I put my hand in he still didn't move... Anything I can do? Looks like he's about to die... I put an aerator on my water pump, maybe he wasn't getting enough oxygen but...

Ever since I got my Lawnmower Blenny he has had cloudy eyes.. they don't look Black, they have a haze... Lately he has been acting strange.. he's gotten thinner.. he loses his color every now and then, then he gets back some color, then loses it again.. I seen him hit scratch against the...

Yep just one clown.. some weird behaviour.. it definitely seems to be something to do with territory.. Maybe he thinks I own the other part of the aquarium because he rarely goes there, he did it just on the border line and stopped a few times from entering as if he is hitting something, and...

he just did it while looking at me in the middle of the tank.. there is only a lawnmower blenny in there with him and I don't think the blenny was close.. I forgot to mention, when he was shaking he was leaning to a side quite a lot.. he's never done it before but he is acting pretty crazy...

My clownfish just froze twice in a row and started shaking, anybody ever seen this before? also he sometimes acts like he is hitting something but there s nothing in the way. Could this mean he might have been caught by cyanide? The store said he's from the ocean but not how he was caught.

Sounds good.. maybe he won't go so crazy always expecting food. I was feeding him little bits twice a day..

Ok soaking in brine shrimp works! But he's becoming very bad, like Im not feeding him enough? How often should I feed him? Every day, twice a day? twice a week? When I vacuumed the gravel today he bit my hand a whole bunch times, pretty hard!! I think he was defending his territory?

My clownfish at first was sitting on the bottom, seemed depressed and his top fin was down. He barely ate any flake food and really started to like Brine Shrimp. In a few days his top fin went up an became really hyper during feeding. Now he is always at the top of the tank sticking his head...

I'm using the Carib Sea sand stuff.. it's turning brownish slowly :|
