    I just bought an acropora from my LFS and I found this snail thing in the bag with it before I put it in my tank. I was wonder if it was bad or not.

    Red Crab

    I just found this guy in my tank today. I've had my tank for almost 10months and have never seen this guy till now. Crazy what pops up in your tank at random times. He must have hide in the live rock all this time. Anyways I was wondering what kind of crab this is? The name slips my mind.

    Food for clowns?

    So a couple of weeks ago I picked up a couple of black ice clownfish. They are doing pretty well except they aren't really eating. I feed them New Life Spectrum pellets and one of the clowns nibbles and the other eats it then spits it out. Any suggestions on what type of food to feed them?

    Clownfish question

    I have 2 ocellaris clown fish in my tank for about 5months. If I were to put 2 more in the tank like Wyoming whites or some other clownfish would they be aggressive towards them?

    Feather Duster on the loose

    So I just got a feather duster not knowing much about them, my mistake. I just thought they were filter feeders and I wouldn't have to do much. Well now my feather duster lost its feathers and is out of its tube. The worm is still moving around, but is it going to live?

    What's growing all over my tank?

    I have this brown stuff growing every where in my tank. If I look close enough it's hair like. I wiped it off the glass and a few hours later I can see it growing again. I don't know if it just was floating around then stuck itself back on the glass or what.
