From my experience Bangaii like meaty foods. Mine love Brine, Mysis, Bloodworms, and blended up seafood. I've rarely if ever seen them take flake or pellets.

My banger just "gave birth" aka spit out about 20 babies today.

Check at the LFS and see if they will eat any prepared foods. I've had a pair of scooters in my 120 for over a month. 4 days ago I tried some blood worms and the little guys love em. If you could get a mandarin that will take prepared or frozen foods your golden.

I just purchased 2 of those bottles earlier this week and added them to my sump. My system is ~6months old, about 200Gal with about 200lbs of LR. I added them merely to suppliment my current population of pods and add some diversity. Theres no need to transfer them as they will naturally find...

I have 4 Peppermint and 2 Skunk Cleaner shrimp. The larger 3 peppermints always seem to be prenant and recently I noticed the skunks are both pregnant as well. How long it takes to gestate one batch of eggs? I know ts doubtful any will survive I'm just curious as to how often my fish get a...

I just got what I thought was my last out last week, then gave it to my Mantis as a treat. Black tip claws are bad.

Sorry about the size of the pics. After about a month I decided I really didn't like power heads, the look of them, the fact there intakes would always clog up, and the suction cups always fail. So I'm slowly trying to replace them. Next month I plan to replace the ph on the right with a...

Care to guess whos hiding?

5 months ago today I was checking to make sure my salinity, pH, and temp were good, and was getting the bathroom prepped to process 160lbs of LR. October 1. October 28. December 23 January 19 Febuary 23 It's been through a number of changes, the LR has been tweaked a few times. I...

2 Days ago I added 2 small scooter blennies to my tank. They are both about 2" long, one is maybe 1/4" longer than the other. They both appear healthy and spend most of the day picking at the LR, I'm assuming there eating small pods but can't be sure. They will go to the sandbed when I feed...

It was either a gorilla or rock crab, it had black claws and was predatory. I'm not sure if it would of actually harmed the blennies but it was just something I'd rather not have in there. I just set it as a goal to remove it before I added the blennies. I have a ton of hermits too, no...

I've had 2 small scooter blennies in QT for a few weeks now, I had decided not to release them until I caught the last of my hitch hiker crabs. Yesterday I spotted the crab lurking by one of the smaller, outlying rocks. I pulled the rock and then got the crab into a bucket. I pu the crab in...

I'd suggest a mate for the perc. I have 7 Green Chromis, 2 Percs, 2 Bangaii, and a Bar Goby. My 120 looks pretty empty too.

I had a smiliar thing happen to one of my Percs. After 3 weeks in QT, and no signs of disease I released him and his mate. Another 2 weeks they were fine. Maybe about 10 days ago he got a brown spot on his side. Its still there but starting to fade back to orange. I can't be sure but I...

When I originally setup my tank I cycled it with 160lbs of LR.com rock. I did a carbonated water dip but only managed to find 1 rock crab by doing so. Most of the hitchhikers I had were either easy to pull off in a holding tank or were in the small pool of water at the bottom of the box. I...

I have T5s on 12 and MH on for 10 and 8. Hmm I never thought about how short the MH were on before. Maybe I'll make the days a little longer.

My Emeralds will eat just about anything. They pick algae all day and eat scraps of food after feeding time.

The are farm raised. The corner they've been sticking around is right next to the toadstool. Thanks for the words of wisdom, but I'm not giving up. I'm going to try feeding them near it so they come close. Maybe if I can associate the toadstool with food they'll stick aound it.

I just added a pair of percs to my tank. I got them from an awesome LFS and had them in QT for 2 weeks. They've been doing well in the main, they seem very scared of everything and stay in the corners. Tonight when I checked one of them was pressed up against an overflow. He still looked...

Thanks.

I've tried looking it up and it does seem to match. I can't seem to find anything about these in aquarium. Does anyone have any suggestions to keeping it alive?

I just got this in my shipment of LR.com rock. At first I thought the tube was vacant accept in the evening this thing came out. Its hard to tell from the pic but there are 2 "bushes" each has multiple layers similar to a feather duster. The purple circle is a cap and closes off the tube...

I finally got some pics. I had a hard time getting a pic but its better than nothing. The base is a hard structure. Do anemones form coral structures or could this be some kind of coral?

The white tips are right but there is also some white dots on the tenticles themselves. The center is colored as well can't define structure to it though. Possibly something related?
