    Snowflake Eel in 40 gallon?

    I agree, plus marine (saltwater) aquariums are 100x harder to give up than any other due to the amount of effort, time and the fish begin to have characters. Let alone the cost and time scale, most people will take over a year to fully stock a marine tank sometimes 2-3 years

    Water cycle

    Yeah I am cycling the tank but with fish in what I don't agree with is that you have to do it without fish.... My ammonia and nitrates/nitrites are fine with the fish in, just do a 20% water change every two weeks and they never climb quickly... I do tests every day for the first 2 months when...

    Water cycle

    Why do you think it needs to cycle before you put fish in? Cycling is a myth there is no need I have never done it with any fish, pond, freshwater, saltwater and never had problems, as long as you look after the paras then it's no problem

    Water cycle

    I always put fish in after two weeks and never had a problem, this is the first time I have done salt water and still put fish in after two weeks they are not stressed at all! But I would only put 2-3 in and then leave it for 3-4 weeks then add your crab and corals

    Fish in or fishless cycling?

    I always have put a couple of fish in after a couple of weeks, in your size tank I would do two small fish like neons. Dwarf guramies you will want to wait untill water has settled and get a male and a female. I have just started getting into marine now and I use the same times two fish after...

    Can someone tell me what this is please...

    I tryed an anti aiptasia syringe thing and that failed miserably, do you realise how hard they are to get it in the mouth! So as I don't have any corals yet I decided to take the infected piece of rock out and squirt them with boiling water which has seamed to do the trick will see if I get anymore

    Can someone tell me what this is please...

    I have looked at pictures on the Internet and can't see an aiptasia that looks the same. Mine have a mouth in the middle and tentacles Around it

    Can someone tell me what this is please...

    What paras do they need, are they going to cause me problems? They seem to be doing well at the moment... Is this good or bad?
