I am in the middle of moving and tomorrow I am moving my fish tank. I have a pretty basic idea of what my plan of action was going to be tomorrow but I was wondering if anyone else on here had some helpful tips. I had read that it was a good idea to change out the sand in the tank now and put...

I have someone I know that offer to sell me their 90 gallon tank for $500 for everything (tank, stand, live rock, lights, coral beauty angel, brown saddleback clown, yellowtail blue damsel, and 2 coral banded shrimp).

I have lawnmore blenny right now in my 50 gallon tank and I was thinking about getting another blenny either a canary or midas blenny. I was wondering if there would be any problems with them if I did decide to get one of them.

What are your thoughts on peppermint shrimp good or bad. I feel like there isnt a problem with them but why are they so much cheaper than most other shrimp such as fire shrimp, cleaner shrimp, etc. Is it because they are many of them and they are easy to be found and sold or is it somehow like a...

Not really sure what this is some sort of white particle or something that has settled on my live rock and just about anything else in the tank it can. Any ideas? And if you do know then is it bad for the tank and/or fish?

What to do with gobies in a tank with ick? If your tank gets ick and you are trying to get rid of it from your tank should you take the goby out or leave it in since gobies are much less susceptible to ick than other fish? Or dont you need to just go ahead and take it out and put him in the QT...

My porcupine puffer has white spots on him and Im not sure if its a bacterial infection or if its ich. I put him in my QT tank and used triple sulfa but the spots havent seem to clear up. He seems fine and is eating but the spots havent gone away and does not look like any less than when I put...

Is there a benefit to using one over the other for mixing salt water for a tank? I always hear and see everyone uses RO water but does it matter if it would be distilled?

I have been treating this as a bacterial infection because I had a coral beauty angel that had pop eye and I didn't catch it in time and died. But now both my puffer and the damsel have white spots on them and their is white thing around my puffers eye (check pictures) so I'm not sure of if I...
