    Purple Reef Lobster

    I too have an aggressive PRL. Any bottom dwelling fish don't last in my tank. He has eaten 2 firefly gobies and a lawnmower blenny this year. I never find any remains of the fish either, so I'm certain it is the lobster! My clowns have been safe, but they sleep high up in the tank. I don't...

    My husband is making a sump for our tank and cant find a plastic hose clamp, so he got a stainless steel one. He said this is ok, and i really don't know one way or another. I know that many metals are a no no, and i'd really like some advice on this before it is intergrated to our tank. Is...

    calvus spawned, now i need help

    can no one even comment on this topic? I did try to get some pictures, however the babies are soooooo small, and my photography skills leave much to be desired, so they didn't turn out so well. I'v noticed a few fry dead in the tank. They were fully formed, and about the size of the live fry...

    sexing julidochromis

    I have 5 julidochromis, and i'v been reading up about sexing, and venting them. I'v also read that the female is usually the larger one. The largest juli in my tank is about 4.5 inches, and has a verry obvious "thing" next to it's anus. The problem is that all my julies seem to have a "thing"...

    calvus dying

    I was so sad today to move a shell, and discover not one, but two dead caovus in there. I noticed that i hadn't seen my beautiful male in awhile, so i was moving the shell around trying to swoosh some water in there, and that was when i found the terrible sight. I thought he and another fish...

    wanting to put some live plants in my tank

    i'v never had any live plants in my fish tanks, but i'm interested it giving it a try. Is there a particular type of lighting that i will need? Anything I should add to the water to help the plants grow? Any infromation would be great. It is a 25g tank with some neons, a barb, and a loach...

    calvus spawning

    He everyone. I think i'm going to have babies again! The two most beautiful fish in my tank have paired up, which i'm supprised about because for the last two spawns, this female has picked a "not so handsome male" She is the only female allowed to spawn. I thought it was strange that she...
