We have an Orangetail Blue Damselfish that has been swimming in one corner of the aquarium. As of today, his breathing is extremely rapid and he keeps swimming towards the top. He did go to his sleeping area early. He has been coming out and laying on the sand bottom. We did all of our tests...

also have 15k and 20k for the same price. Which one is best as only light for corals?

Am thinking about ordering 2 12k coralvue 250w mh lamps. Has any one used these? Will they help make up for lack of other lighting?

Also I am currently using 1 gal of bio balls in a wet dry setup. Will this help for this change as far as holding good biology?

I went to Drs. Foster & Smith(aka liveauaria.com) in person to get fish and supplies. I was sold these two fish as good hardy choices to cycle a tank with as well as coexist with the planed lionfish. I was looking for expert help from a respected company and worked with a fish tech there. Well...

I have a orangetail damsel and a dwarf flame angel in the tank now. Also have about 8-10# of lr now. I can add the lr slowly if that helps. Also wanting to move tank at the same time. so a full drain is in order.

Looking for lr. Does it matter what kind? liveaquria has caribbean lr for $99.99 a 45# box. is this ok or should I be looking at something else?

My tank has finished cycling. I now have decided to go from a cc to a dsb substrate. I will use rubbermaid containers to hold fish water and lr. How long do I need to wait before reintroducing fish after the change? I have read about it being cloudy after such a change. Also ordering 30# of lr...

I am looking at buying 2- 250w mh for my 55 gal tank. I want to get into corals as I go along. They are used so the price is right. I am wondering if this is too much light though.

what is a fuge?

Lion fish Tang flame angel. want corals but will have to wait until I can afford to build an adequate lighting system.

Is 1gal of bio ball enough for a 55 gal tank?

I have read that article and wish I would have found this sight before I put fish in. Well that did not happen. I live in Wi so I drove up to Dr.s foster & smith. I told them I was just starting up and that the main inhabitant was to be a lionfish. I was directed towards a flame dwarf angel and...

Has anyone ever used a product called cycle made by nutrafin? Was advised to use this during my cycle to help keep fish alive. Not to sure about putting something unnatural in the tank. What do you guy think?

Thanks guys. Just did the change. I am so glad I found this site. Everyone has been so helpful. Me only regret is that I didn't find it before I did. :D

No I was not able to take the angel to the lfs. I bought it out of town and the lfs don't want anything to do with him. Poor Max. I just want to keep him alive. Both fish look good. No signs of problems. seem health and happy so far.

I am concerned due to the fact that i mistakenly put in a flame dwarf angel fish with a damsel fish. Will the angel make it through this?

cycling tank ammonia has leveled off. nitrite reading of 5.0 ppm this morning. I have prepared a 25% water change. I belive this is the right thing to do just wanted to make sure. This is the first day of high nitrite readings. How long will this phase last? Should I do daily test of this...

I use cc. The tank is still cycling. I will just wait this out thanks.

New tank set up. Ph is staying around 7.9. How critical is this and what is the best way to adjust it?

Made the water change(25%). How long do I need to wait to take another ammonia test? If it is still high when can I do another water change?

I live 60 miles from Drs. Foster & Smith. So I drove up there figuring this was a good place to start my quest for knowledge on the subject. I guess I was wrong! I have called them and they say the dwarf angel will be ok. I am not sure I belive this. Problem two is I did state this was a new...

I will try to find a place for the angel. how much and how often should I do water changes.
