Hey everyone, I'm looking to set up a nano freshwater tank for my college dorm room. I have plenty of experience with saltwater, but I'm a fw noob. I don't remember sw being this intimidating haha :) I really like all of those Iwagumi/Amano inspired aquascapes - is something like this possible...

I bought a sixline wrasse a little over a week ago and it was doing just fine ... very active and eating well. Day before, I noticed at night that it was looking a bit spotted but I couldn't really tell if it was ich or not. I figured I would wait a day to get a better look and see if they fell...

Hey, this is the same fish from the Blind Clownfish? Not eating anymore thread. I'm surprised it's lasted this long but I think it will finally go tonight or tomorrow. It started doing this weird thing shown in the video every 5-10 minutes. It's too late to really do anything and I've written...

My ocellaris clownfish seems to have gone blind recently, because he bumps into the rocks more often than he used to and just generally looks like he can't see anything. I have been target feeding with a baster this week but he has been eating poorly and today wouldn't eat at all and only swims...

Recently I've had these ball anemones multiply a lot in my tank. According to this site what I have should be corynactis, because they are all no bigger than a quarter. They do tend to be more open with the lights off so I don't know exactly which type they are. Anyways, should I leave them...

My clownfish has had this white particle on his body behind his fin for about 4-5 days now. It's not flat and sticks out a bit off of his body. There's only one in that spot and nowhere else, which makes me question if it is ich. None of the other fish (chromis and banggai) show any spots and...

I have a 29gal FOWLR that's been up since August, with an ocellaris clownfish, chromis, and banggai cardinal. Can I add any more fish or is this all my tank can support? I'm guessing if I can add more fish it will have to be smaller nano ones. Also, what do you do with fish you no longer...

This thing has been in the same position for a while, but it's usually completely spread open and looks like a bunch of white dots in a spiderweb. For the first time today, I found it closed up in a ball when I turned the lights on and it slowly started opening. It has not opened up completely...

I have a 29gal tank with a chromis, clownfish, and banggai cardinal. The clown has always "charged" at the chromis occasionally, but they used to swim around together just fine. Ever since I added the cardinal, the two have been chasing the chromis around and it just hides in a fake plant all...

Sorry for another similar thread, but life became quite busy since my last post and I never got around to buying another fish. I went to my LFS this Friday and they had some variety ... and I couldn't decide what to get :rolleyes: I've been looking at: coral beauty, purple firefish, banggai...

My 29gal has been running successfully since the end of August with a blue-green chromis and an ocellaris clown, so I figure it's fine to add a couple more fish slowly. I think I want another clown so they can form a pair, and I know chromis prefer groups but I'm open to going in any...

My live rock has begun to "blossom" recently once the diatoms finally went away and now has tons of little creatures. I think I have a feather duster, but the feather part isnt visible, only the brown rod, and there are also many spirorbid worms as well as amphipods and copepods. What are these...

Hi everyone, My tank recently finished cycling, so on Friday I bought a blue-green chromis (viridis) from my LFS. Friday night she was wedged under my live rock. Yesterday she moved around a bit but still hides in my fake plant and live rock structures. There is a lot of open swimming space...

Hi everyone, I'm just starting out with a saltwater aquarium, so nothing big planned for now. I'm looking to keep a clown or two and maybe later on progress to corals. Right now I have a 30 gallon glass tank with a HOB power filter. The lighting is a standard baseline flourescent hood. The...
