looks like the drawing below. i havent been able to get a good picture of it, it just looks like a rock attached entirely at the base to some live rock i have in my tank. 3 weeks after getting the rock it opened up! two parts slid out of it, one wide and shorter, i assume the intake, and the...

LFS is having a sale that will end up about 45% off live rock and everything else, starting this weekend. Timing is kind of perfect, I want to move everything from my 5 gallon over to a ten gallon, and cheap good live rock is awesome. Question is, can I move everything from the 5 gallon to the...

Got these hanging off the live rock in my newly established 5 gallon nano. They seem to just float in the current, but also slide around and even seek out bits on other parts of the rocks! They even picked off a reef food pellet before it made it to the sand, but it was juggling it up and down...

Ok, to start I picked up a 5 gallon acrylic thanks to my dad ( old feeder fish/ hodge podge tank from years ago). Cleaned it super well, looks brand new, want to start a tiny coral and tiny crustacean tank, no fish. It comes with a filter, tube pump then filter than bio wheel then out, don't...

My dad just bought a geocube tank and it's looking fantastic, with little things coming out of the live rock he got and something new everyday he says, exactly what I wanted for my sons room. He has a freshwater aquarium in there now, but it's kind of boring, same old fish and not much else...

As an attempt to curb my brown algae problem I got a phosphate and silicate remover to put in my tank. That was on Thursday. I thought it would go away but it's Monday and my tank is still cloudy. Never had that problem in the past. What do you guys think? Suggestions? It's like a light cloudy...

Starting to get brown algae in my big tank now, freaked and got a Pleco. In two days I have more long hard pieces of poop around the bottom of the tank, and all he does really is eat the cucumbers I put in there! I'm hoping he wasn't a mistake, but I won't be hurt if I needa take him out. What...

peacocks? im going to go to my lfs to see what they have but i wanted to ask the experts. seems to me its a crapshoot until they mature anyway but its worth a shot to ask...

ill just keep this kind of stuff in one thread as not to overdo it. going on day three of my fishless cycle, keeping a good record of everything right now. not the water temp at ~82 degrees, ammonia at ~4-5 ppm, and took some of the gravel out of my old tank. Cut the legs out of a pair of panty...

I know it's of season around here, but jeesh it should be this hard to find. Walmart doesn't have it, or lowes, or home depot, or meijer. Meijer said they did but if theyre out they're out, which they were. Where to look now? And what kind do you guys suggest? I saw various kinds online with...

I was curious if i could do this? will they get along? differences in habitat?

Setting up a new tank and I've been told I wanna keep my water around an 8.0-8.2 ph. I was told that, even though I'm set on using pool filter sand as a substrate (how many inches off the bottom btw?) I need to mix in crushe coral and use Texas holy rock. What do you guys suggest?

Anyone use saquarium saltand have a noticible issue with algae? I was using aquarium salt and had a problem with brown algae, stopped using it and just using well water, I switched to using salt softened water and now my problems back. Am I imagining things? Is there a connection?

Are there any special things that need done to a fishtank to set it up for saltwater? like drilling holes or anything? im new to aquariums and know less than 0 about saltwater so i thought i would ask. i thought i read somewhere that holes have to be drilled for plumbing. the more i see them the...

I have an established tank now with two chiclids, i believe a male and a female, but i was wondering if i should get a support fish in there. what would you recommend that would stay out of their way?

I am planning on getting (hopefully) a breeding pair for my son's tank when its done cycling, but i was wondering, what do you feed them? i saw chiclid food at the petstore, guy told me is was like little pellets, and you upgrade the sizes based on the size of the fish, but i ve also read frozen...

Well, it really sucked. my son got attached to seeing the two goldfish when he woke up at night and in the morning. i had to flush them when he wasnt there. he still looks for them. Anyways, i got everything set up and tried to ( in what i could only describe as a halfazzed attempt) live cycle...

I got a tank out of drydock at my parents house, 15 gall or so 10x20. I went and bought new rock, a top filter ( the salesman tal;ked me out of running that AND a bottom filter, said i didnt need it. recommended a "gravel vacuum", or a tube that sucks the crap out of the gravel when you replace...
