    Sick Clown!

    The yellow tail damsel is picking when the clowns or the blue cromis gets near his "rock", but otherwise he is not pursuing them. The clowns seem to be unconcerned with him. Currently, the abovementioned clown is along the back side of the tank on the sand and not moving a whole lot. I am just...

    Sick Clown!

    All water parameters are 0 or near 0. The fish is only a week old. both of the clowns were acclimated by adding aquarium water 1/2 at a time 4 times. The little guy seems to be acting normally now. Every once in a while he will get near the bottom but he still eats and has no physical signs on...

    QT Tank Options

    I need to get a QT tank for my damsel because he is being all macho toward my new clowns. I also want to have the tank for when my tank is more populated than just 2 damsels and 2 clowns. I am curios if I should plumb the tank in line with my sump or if I should have the tank on a completely...

Every minute or so, the Fluval spits out a burst of microbubbles and the tank become filled with them. I have the pre-filter box and...

    Algae Control

    Here is a picture of what I am dealing with as far as algae goes. There are also bubbles coming up from the sand bed during the day when the lights are on. I take it, that would be due to the algae growing there too. All of these problems have started after the new lighting was installed...

    Puffers

    What size tank are those puffers in? I guess my real question is: Is a 55 goiing to be too small for the puffer (e.g. valentini puffer)? Don't want him to be cramped.

    Refugium for my 55??

    I have plenty of room, but doing a sump setup in addition to my canister and HOT protein skimmer seems a bit cluttered. I should have built everything into the same system.

    FOWLR Stocking Questions

    I am actually at work right now... but the slime makes the glass look cloudy (slightly). I know that I do not have a phosphate test with my kit.

    FOWLR Stocking Questions

    I have a thin layer of slime on the walls of the tank... I am guessing this is from the move although it only took about an hour. Could this mean that something other than amonia, no2, no3, pH or Alk is out of whack?? Are there any good tests that are not included with the Red Sea marine lab?

    Puffers

    I have this urge to add a puffer to my wishlist of fish... a fishlist i guess. Anyway, I think the puffers seems to have a lot some personality and react well to humans or at least that is what I have seen in the big tanks at the fish stores. With 55 gallon and 2 damsels (yellow tail and a light...

    FOWLR Stocking Questions

    I have a 55g with about 60lbs. of LR. I have had it set-up for about 5 weeks now and and all is well. There are two damsels in there now and they are currently "adjusting" to the new lighting (Current USA 48" 4x65w). I eventually want to stock the tank with a tang of sorts, clowns (2) and a host...
