Thanks, I'm trying to find out if the two lights I have mentioned will be enough for my current stock and future stock plans or should I get more lighting than that?

Hello, I'm thinking about replacing the stock lighting with one Panaroma Pro LED strip white/blue and one all blue stunner strip. Would this be enough light for this size reef? I have a few leathers in there right now and don't plan on getting crazy with coral. Maybe some zoas, a frogspawn...

I recently acquired a 12 gallon nano that was already up and running and it is infested with bristle worms. I don't mind them but I feel there are just too many for my liking. The panty hose trick did not work as they didn't get stuck on there. I picked up a netted bath poof and cut the...

I have several friends and acquaintances with tanks who are looking forward to a few and local fish stores who rarely (oddly) have kribs. I was lucky finding these but had to drive a long way. If there are some left...Craigslist I suppose.

8 days old now and the parents haven't eaten them. Hope I'm out of the woods. I did cave in and buy a tank divider. Ma and Pa seem way less stressed out. I'm a sucker.

Thanks! It is - to my knowledge the first spawn. I hope they don't eat them, but if they do, there will be more. I'm just letting nature take its course (for the most part). I felt like a new mom when I flipped on the lights and seen all the little wigglers in and around the stone. So cool!

I have baby Kribs! So excited, I hope they don't become lunch. The parents are being very protective though I believe I spotted a cory snacking on one or two yesterday. They are a day old and I've been spot feeding golden pearls and first bites. They decided they liked the cichlid stone...

Was reading your cycle log, this CRACKED me up:rofl:. Good luck, the tank looks great!

:facepalm: Brilliant.

Thanks, I appreciate the brain storming. I'm going to check it tonight when I get home, I'm sure it will be a process of elimination at this point.

I distract my blood red parrot with shrimp pellets while feeding the others flakes, wafers and krill pelets.

It's actually smaller than the Purigen beads and stays suspended through the water, but maybe I didn't wash it well enough to get all the dust out of the bag...?

Happy Friday everyone! Over the last month I've noticed a strange haze in my tank, from afar the water looks clear and beautiful but when I get close there is almost like this white haze or very tiny particle like debris. The tank currently houses the fish noted in my signature and below are...

Thanks Lyndab, so I'm over thinking this process. The lace rock that they are adapting to is pretty close to the filter intake, do you recommend I cover that with a sponge of some sort?

Good morning everyone. About 3 weeks ago I bought a male and female Kribensis (which are some of the neatest fish I've owned). They are in my 55 gallon with the tank mates mentioned in my signature, I also purchased two clay pots, one is now occupied by my pleco and the other by my three cory...

I personally would do microworms for the first week only. They are small enough for them to get in their mouth but do not hold enough nutrition to sustain them and their growth, they are a temporary food. After the first week I would move to live baby brine shrimp and once they are big enough...

I have one in my 55 gallon along with the tank mates noted in my signature. I've had her since she was a baby and she's a total ham, never really bothers the other fish. The first two years I had her she went through this weird spawning stage and was laying eggs on one of the lace rocks and...

I'm going to have to double check when I get home from work. I thought it was flush with just a plastic aerator on it. If so...I'm getting one of these pythons..been lugging buckets for 3 years, lol. The only bummer is this will only work in the cooler months in Phoenix, in the summer our tap...

I have a question about the Python water changer (or any other brands). None of the faucets in our house have either male or female threaded connections. Is there an adapter that will work for these types of faucets?

How are you acclimating your new fish? I prefer the drip acclimation method over the bag float method, it makes sense to me and I've always done it that way without any fish loss. Just tossing that idea out there.

I have two large angels and a school of five giant danios in a 55 gallon and they ignore each other. I've also had a lone cherry barb in there for about a year and a half without a single problem. I just recently purchased 5 more of them and everyone seems to be getting along or minding their...

My Angels are starting to show mating behavior. I'm thinking I might try raising some of the fry. I'm not looking forward to a BBS hatchery . Have any of you had luck with this product instead of hatching your own BBS? Aquarium Fish Foods: Ocean Nutrition Instant Baby Brine Shrimp Thank...

So, Saturday I bought some sunset angels as explained and shown in this thread http://www.aquariumadvice.com/forums/f70/diary-of-a-mad-fish-woman-110559-3.html#post958440 Just wanted to give some information on the breeder in case anyone is interested or there are any locals who want to check...

Thanks Ben! =)

Glad to see your betta is doing betta! I had two bettas who both got velvet at the same time and a coworker's betta who also got it (they come to me when their fish get sick, LOL). Here's how I knew for sure what it was and how I cured it. Turn the lights off or go in a darker room with your...
