    10 Gallon fish recomendation?

    My daughter started a 10 gallon tank about 2 months ago. It is cycled and ready to go for more livestock. Currently it has 5 small tetras and 1 small frog. I don't think she can add too much more to the tank, but wants some sort of algae eater. What do you reccomend? I am a reef tank...

    What kind of snail is this?

    Is it harmful, if so what does it eat? This is the first time I have been able to get a good picture of it. I know I have 2 of them and they only come out at night. I just installed moon lights, so now I can see them clearly.

    How do I get rid of bubble algae?

    Frog Spawn question?

    How much light is too much light for Frog Spawn coral. Mine is about 10 inches deep in the tank and the 250w MH are 8 inches above the surface of the water. I do keep the lids on the top of the tank. The Frog Spawn I have has two branches. The top branch which receives more light is turning...

    Has anyone seen this before? I think they could be raw from gnawing at the LR, or maybe he got stung a little. He is swimming around as usual, his gills are puffing at normal rates, his color is as vibrant as normal, basically he is a acting just fine. I think he is fine, but it doesn't hurt...
