Anybody have any of these? Thinking of adding ONE to the tank.... I know the inherit dangers but does anyone have any horror stories???? TIA

Ok guys of course I listened to the guy at the LFS and might have gotten taken. I picked up a Clown Tang today and what I'm reading on the internet doesn't look very promising. Anybody have any advice or good news about these fish??? TIA

Let me begin by saying I don't have a pic. The tank has only been setup for a week with LR and some LS. There are some Nassarius snails that happened to be in the sand. I noticed the other day that there was a trail of dots on the glass behind the snail and assumed it was a trail of...

For anyone who remembers me I'm back.... setup the tank today and got some LR going.... back into business............. Had to let the tank go for a while but starting up again; going fish, inverts and LR only...... Will be talking with you guys soon!!!!!!!!! Wooohooooo P.S. FIRST QUESTION...

Ok so I'm going back to FW and going to seel my stock.... I've got about 150 lbs. of LR, fiji, tonga branch full of wildlife Toadstool, pulsing xenia, Devil's Hand, Horn coral, Candy Coral,Green Star Polyps, A few different shrooms and zoos Standard stock of fish and inverts, cleaners...

Ok so I lose snails like it isn't funny...... I could buy ten and be lucky to have five after three or so weeks.... all types turbos, ceriths, astreas etc.... the ones that die seem to lose their suction and then just take days to die.... On a different note, I think this isn't related since...

Ok so here's the deal... I'm using RO/DI water from the local grocery store and have been using the same water for months... The tank is around 8 months old and I've already gone through my initial diatom bloom.... Using Coralife salt 2.5ppm nitrates everything else is good and basically...

Quick question Can you have more than one lawnmower blenny in a tank???? Are there any other fish that will fit comfortably in a 55 gal that will eat algae??? thanks guys......

Some of you might remember me... I've been gone for a while..... The tank hasn't changed much and I'm going to update my profile as soon as I write this.... Some of my xenia which has been doing very well since it went in the tank a few months ago, is starting to die.... it's turning white and...

1. Lighting on fuge?? I leave mine on for about 12 hrs a night.... I've seen some people leave it on 24/7 ..... are there any ill affects from doing this??? Would it just help the macros grow faster ?????? 2. Nitrate test kit.... I use a Redsea kit and it tells me to wait five minutes and...

I woke up this morning with a snotty blob hanging from my horn coral... I also noticed a few xenia close by looking rather crappy.... is this chem warfare ???? or just some random snotty blob that attached to my horn???

As some of you know I've had a fuge setup for a few weeks now and I'm noticing three distinct pods... 1. 2mm catepillar looking things 2. 1mm clear/white moving dots 3. 1mm or so fry looking things.... they look kinda like tadpoles are there any larger pods I should want to see??? Should I...

My LFS has a coral I'm interested in but can't seem to find any info about... It's a softie but the type with the calcified spinules in it.... it's got a white stalk and red cauliflower looking things.... It kinds looks like a colt all shriviled up... but with the spinules in the stalk...

I keep hearing six months for the life of lights... and then other conflicting stories.... My question is how long do you go between bulb changes for PC's ?

Ok so I swapped out the stand for the tank and a bunch of other stuff today and now I'm getting ZAPPED.... it's wierd though ... only on one had... the one with my wedding ring (I'm guessing that's why)... anyway the fish and corals seem to be doing just fine.... but I need help 1. It's going...

Well I took the Yellow tang and the maroon clown back to the LFS today and couldn't find any fish I liked so I picked up some yellow polyps... I believe they're zoos but in smaller clumps and with pretty long tentacles for a zoo...... Anyway on the way out we noticed some stands and asked how...

So I decided to go ahead and get the clown I've been asking about and since everyone said they all stay pretty small I went out and picked up a maroon clown..... After I got home I starting seeing things on the web about these things getting up to 6" long .....that's a little bigger than I...

I was thinking of adding more LR or base rock to my fuge to help with filtration... would this affect the pods in the sand bed etc... or would this just help things?????

I lost two damsels since I've been gone for a day or two... one MIA and the other appeared brain dead... all others fine......... Guess that opens up room for the clown...... :roll:

Just thought I'd let everyone know... I set the fuge up about two weeks ago and can already see tons of pods crawling around inside the clear tub.... I'm really glad I went with a clear one..... it's pretty kewl to see all the little things running around ...... I would highly recommend a fuge...

I'm considering getting a clown.... please take a look at my profile and let me know if you think I'm already overstocked ??? I've gotten my nitrates down to 5ppm and staying pretty constant with the new fuge, mangrove, and macros by the way I know the yellow tang will have to go after it...

I'm thinking about going after an anemone and clown... and I want to add as little to my bioload as possible...... what clown stays the smallest and what anemone would be a good host???????

I've got a sand sifter about four or five inches across..... I noticed the other day that the tip of one of his legs was jacked.... today I picked him up and put him in the fuge and he's missing the tips of two of his legs and seems a little slimy..... Think he's dying???? I don't want 'em to...

I think I've finally figured it out... I was looking through Julian Sprungs book and he talks about normal emerald crabs and ones that are much larger.... Well I added two of the "larger" ones with MAMOTH claws and noticed my coraline was starting to get eatin..... then I got home tonight and...

I'm getting chaeto tommorow in the mail... I doubt it was shipped with much water..... do I need to acclimate it ??? I saw an earlier post on molts.... I've recently had an emerald crab molt... should I leave that in or just take it out ??????
