    So I got my pair of Australia black clarkii clowns and I'm really pleasd with them ! They are really active and feeding well and after acclimation I released them and they headed straight for the bubble tip !

    Placing bubble nem near mushroom coral

    The nem will go walkabout anyway if its not happy where you place it ! Mine decided to settle right in the middle of my red people eaters and its stinging the hell out of them but that's where it's happy it's even split and now I have two healthy bta,s ! Not so happy people eaters though lol

    Clownfish swap ?

    Thanks ! Yeh it's a great lfs and the pair he has offered me are not actually for sale they are in his display tank !

    Clownfish swap ?

    My lfs has offered me a straight swap ! His pair of ocean caught black clarkii clowns for my breeding pair of tank raised oscellaris clowns ! Is this a good swap or would I be robbing myself ? Thoughts please !

    Banded shrimp VS big fish

    I've had a banded coral shrimp in my 75g for a year and a half now with no issues ! My cleaner shrimp did disappear but I can't say if it was the coral shrimp or not as they lived together for over a year ! Nothing else in my tank has been affected by him ! Hermits stars snails etc all seem fine !

    Salt mix

    I've been using brightwell aquatics neo-marine for a while now with good results but before that I used tropic Marin pro reef also with good results I just find the neo-marine better value for money there's 7.5kg for the same price as 4kg compared to the tropic Marin and I tend to use less of it !

    Rose pink bta has split !

    I forget to mention that I switched salt about 3 months ago from tropic-Marin pro reef to brightwell aquatics neo-marine ! But I'd put it more down to moving the nem as this coincides with the split !

    Rose pink bta has split !

    It's been living in those zoas for about 3 months ! I recently moved it to save my other zoas etc around it ! I also fragged the ones hes living amongst in order of saving them ! Maybe the move has stressed it into splitting ! It split about 2 weeks after the move ! thanks for the advice !

    Its working for me !

    I've hit on this subject a number of times and got shot down for it ! IODINE ? I've dosed 1 drop every day for 3 years and cut it back recently to every 3 days because of advice from here ! But the way I see it is 1 pipette drop a day in a 95 gallon system is not going to overdose it with a...
