Went to a friend's house today and he has a crazy amount of these in his tank. What are they? He had no idea either and said he hasn't seen any changes in his tank so he isn't worried about them. Quality is a little low but they are small so I zoomed in on the pic. They are about the size of...

I have read too many mixed things and need a definitive answer. Can a Catalina goby survive a cupramine treatment? Got the ich on a couple new purchases. Had the qt setup and going so iwent ahead and bought them In the qt tank before adding to DT so I can monitor them. Sure enough. So, yay or nay?

Just lost a fish and now my black tang is showing signs. Bad. Was treating cupramine in the hospital and the other fish still died. Could never really keep the copper at .5 but was always above .3. So ran carbon to clear it out and started prazipro. Did a freshwater dip for 13 mins, way to...

So my wife wants to get a bicolor goatfish. I have tons of small brittle stars living in the rocks and one with about a quarter size disc. I also have a 3/4 inch two spotted goby that I am a little worried about. Anyone have any experience with these and did they kill off your starfish...

They are at petco and tey are not marked. I am out and about and can't do any research. Thanks

I have had some ich issues going on so I made the decision to setup a hospital tank. Going from the 210 display to 100 gallon HT. Set it up with half tank water and half new water. Didn't have any filter from the display but threw in some LR to help with bio filtration. Waited a couple days and...

bought an Achilles over a month ago. Everything was fine. Introduced him to the tank and he was shy as expected but over about a week it was fine. Now there is ich. I will be honest and tell you it is only the achilles is showing signs but is still eating great. Loves all food. Pellet, formula...

I have a black Moor who for the last couple of weeks has developed a sore right before his back fin. It is a white bump. I have been using melafix and salt to try to heal it and it does not seem to be working. He has to wedge him self in between things to stay on the bottom of the tank...

Okay what is this guy. I use to have one and my LFS called them Pineapple triggers, but liveaquaria calls this a starry trigger and they are nothing alike. Except for dots. [/url]

We just got two Gobies and I was wondering about eating habits. I know they stir up the sand bed and get some food from there but is this suffiecent? I know they will get some food that falls to the bottom, but should I make sure to get food down there by their caves they have made? Also, when...

I currently have a 210gal with an Orange Shoulder, Naso, Black Longnose, and 4 percs. Well the wife and I went to Hawaii and went diving and saw all the triggers and really missed them. I had a Niger, a Pineapple (LFS's name for it, never figured out what it was), and a rectangle before this...

I have a 37gal Eclipse Goldfish tank, I know they are disgusting animals, but I can not seem to keep it clean. The water keeps turning green. It has been setup for almost two years and about a month ago it just started. I can do a 90% water change and in 2 days it is back. I thought it...

My shrimp just had babies and I turned off the pump so they will stay in the tank and not get sucked into the overflows. My question is how long can I go without the filtration? I do not have any fish in the tank right now. I have a powerhead in the tank circulating the surface of the water...

I need to raise my Cal but this is for Cal and Alk, but my Alk is fine. Can I still use this or should I use something else and if so, what?

I have quite a few hermits and snails in my tank. My LR doesn't seem to have much for them to eat. (algea, etc...) I know they will find things here and there. As of right now there are no fish in the tank (they all were lost to Ich :cry: ) so they really don't have any scraps coming down...

I have a 80gal Perfecto Bowfront with stand, canopy, and overflow kit for sale. $600 obo. Only a few months old. The stand and canopy were black and we painted them a deep blue. Was SW.

I need a 500gph pump and was wondering which is the best out there? TIA

I am setting up a 210 and the pump is external and is very loud. I have a pad under it and even with the doors shut. I was going to put some insulation on the inside of the stand and was thinking of foam rubber and covering that with plastic to keep the moisture out of it. Does anyone have...

Kick-Ick? I have a reef tank with a few fish that seem to have ick. Since a couple fish seem to have it, it is only a matter of time the others will probably come down with it so QT is really not an option for me and neither is hyposalinity due to the inverts and corals. LFS said this is reef...

I am looking for suggestions in lighting for my 210. The tank will be reef and fish. I currently have a powder blue, mimic tang, blue spotted naso, two cardinals, two percs, and a coral beauty. In the way of inverts I have 5 anenomes(sp?), two colonies of button polyps, frogspawn, and a star...

I have a 92gal corner tank that is for triggerfish. I currently have a Niger and Pineapple Trigger in there right now and was wondering if I can put a Rectangle Trigger in with them? I have heard conflicting stories about them, one being that they are as "harmless" as a Niger and also that...

This started out as cloudy eye and has progressed into something more. I have him in a QT. The cloudy eye has gotten better, but I noticed during the infection a bump right behind his gill but this went away after about a week but has now reappeared on his back. And another one is popping up...

I am about to set up a 210 gal tank and was trying to get some opinions on what is the best skimmer out there. My LFS is suggesting a ETS 2 skimmer. Any comments on the above skimmer would also be appreciated.

I am moving my 80 gln tank into a 210 gln and plan on using the LR & LS from the 80. Since this will not be enough sand to give me at least a 3" DSB, I was wondering if the new tank will have to cycle again? I have 120# of LR and can not remember how much LS but it gives me a 3 1/2 to 4 " base...
