For the small bristle worms, Coralife makes a "trap-em" kit specifically for bristleworms. You put it in your tank and the worm is supposed to crawl in, and you just take it out in the morning. However, i have never had any luck. I found that if you sit up and watch for awhile after setting up...

Which specific brand/type of 2-part calcium/alkalinity solution that you mentioned would you reccomend for me to use?

Im not specifically trying to mate the pair, but its a bonus. Its just my first time with clowns, so i wasnt sure what to expect. Thank you for all your help.

ok, thanks! There is no nipping yet, but i have noticed the one has been growing at a much faster rate than the other. Thank you for the heads up.

I have only added the calcium maybe twice in the last two months. I do test for it, so i only add it when it is needed. I have begun doing more frequent water changes, and i quit adding anything, including calcium. (The level has not gotten low enough to add). I am still having a problem with my...

How do you know if a pair of clownfish is mated? I bought an unmated pair of false perculas. Its been six months since i got them. Im not sure how to tell. They never seperate from eachother, and they shake and display for eachother. I know that they are social fish, so im not sure. I have also...

I added a peppermint shrimp temporarily to my tank, and it got rid of all of my aiptasia in a matter of days. It will not eat the large ones though, so if you have a bunch or large aiptasia, dont bother.

I do water changes about every week and a half. I usually do a 15-20% water change. I have never done 50%. When i change the water, the water level never gets low enough to expose anything, so I doubt thats the problem. The polps just slowly closed up and never came back out. It wasnt a sudden...

Sounds like a plan. I am using API testing products for all my tests. PS, tonights reading of PH is 8.2

The PH is normally at 8.2-8.3. When it falls, it usually falls to 8.0, although it has dropped to 7.8 The supplements were kent iodide, kent essential elements, and kent calcium, all liquid formulas. I will stop adding anything and keep to my water changes. Also, what would you reccomend...

I am relatively new to reef aquariums. I figured i would start off by using a 12g nano cube. I have had it for 5-6 months now. About two weeks ago my corals started looking sick. My star polyp has since died, and my torch coral is getting worse by the day. I regularly test ph, nitrite, nitrate...
