:fish2::fish2: Hey everyone! I am in need of some suggestions. My LFS and I are trying to think of what would be a good addition to my 55g reef... that can stand a bully clownfish (putting it nicely). She has harassed 2 gobies in to suiciding out, but has managed to be cool with the lawnmower...

Hey guys - I lost my tail spot blenny today, added him to the tank in May 2012 and was curious about what the lifespan of these little guys is. I think diet played a part of it, and he had a bowel obstruction or something, but I was also just curious about the lifespan.

Hey guys - I received a RODIunit for my birthday and before getting it started, since it came with no instruction and I had to look it all up (it's a 50gpd POQ-4b-50 from pure water club), I was wondering what advice everyone had for making their own RODI water. A list of do's and don't's would...

morning everyone, I was out of town for 2 weeks and had someone checking on the tank. They did a good job, no casualties, but over fed big time. I am now battling this algae whenever the lights are on. Been doing 5 gal water changes and am about step it up to 10. I am working on siphoning it out...

Hey guys, I have caught one of these before but it was so small I couldn't get a decent picture, but today I managed to catch another. It mostly comes out at night and has been seen on rocks mostly, but this guy was caught on the glass right after my lights switched on. What is he?

Hey guys, I've recently discovered this stuff on the bottom of a piece of rock topped with zoas. I have noticed it spreading, And am also seeing my zoas deminish... so what is this light pink growth and is it the cause of my zoa problem?

Hey everyone I have noticed this in my live rock and have realized they have invaded my 55g. Anyone have a clue? They stretch out their stringy arms (?) Searching for food. If I squirt water on them they retreat into their hole.

Just found this hitch hiker in my 55 gallon. Should it stay or go. I'm thinking I should've removed it When I found it initially... now ill have break the tank down again to find him if y'all advise it should be removed.

Hey guys, while recovering from a crisis where my tank overheated I noticed this red guy. Haven't ever seen him in daylight before and am guessing he was leaving his hole due to warm water? I am in the process of cooling the tank down, and he has gone back to hiding ... any thought? He was a...

Hey everyone, I have been looking at photos of frogspawns, and keep getting the nagging feeling mine isn't as happy as it could be. Should I move it lower? Water parameters are in range, and since they like moderate light I have it placed in the middle of the tank... I only have one t5 going...

There a a few little white puff looking things, with hairs sticking out at the too. Mostly on the underside of the rock, but I did suck one off the top to get...

So I am probably too excited, but I added these two little guys today and can't wait to watch them! I had another pair die from clownfish disease a few months ago, so I am hoping these do better. Can actually tell They are much more vibrant and active than the other pair was. :)

:fish2: I currently have a 55 gallon set up, its been up and going 3 1/2 months and currently houses 1 orange diamond goby, 9 hermits, 4 turbo snails, and a cleaner shrimp. All of my parameters are good as far as the water goes. I had 2 clownfish, and they didn't show signs of ich and ate...

Hey guys, I got a pretty colony of Zoas today and know the basics about them, but how about offering any advice on these dudes? Let me know what y'all do with yours and things I should avoid :)

i have had a pair of young clownfish for almost a month, i believe they have finally decided who will become the female. i am curious though as to what counts as 'hosting behavior' ? There is a patch of sand that they are constantly at, they sleep here and always come back to this one spot...

Hey guys. I am getting a cleaner shrimp this weekend and wanted to hear everyone's thoughts on theirs! Pros and cons are welcomed

Advice needed! I had a coral hammer who took a tumble over the weekend and sustained enough damage for him to start dying off. I yanked him out and had to do damage control (filter out parts of him floating around) and cleaned some. did a partial water change as well. problem : i noticed these...

hey guys - my goby has been busy burrowing, and the dust has finally been filtered out from where all he was digging; but i've noticed that he has moved a good deal of sand to the front of the tank and the back is getting a bit bare. i moved some sand around and also moved my rocks to prevent...

Hi everyone, Question of the day, I bought a goby last week and he spent a good bit of the first few days burrowing, causing a good sandstorm in the tank. I knew this was going to happen and hoped once he was settled it would be better. My question: how long will this last or is it a risk...
