Could I keep a very small 9 week old Caribbean Reef Octopus in my reef tank for a short period of time until I get his tank setup or am I going to have to keep it in a submerged container with small holes drilled in it until I get his tank setup.

I am currently planning on adding a 150 gallon Rubbermaid horse trough to my 75 gallon system with a large sump that holds around 30 gallons of water. My sump already has a refugium that holds around 5 or so gallons of water and I have a skimmer that easily handles my current amount of stock and...

So hears the deal I have a 75 reef (Yes I know this is the FOWLR section of the forum but I know this was a better suited question for you guys) I currently have on 16-18" snowflake eel he is very well behaved and I have had it for 6 months now the worst he's ever done is flipped hermit crabs on...

Hey guys I know this is uncharted turf I'm on here but on LiveAquaria yesterday an eel called well read the title don't want to write it again came on to the divers den section and well as far as I know it's never been kept in captivity I mean I'm sure it has but it must not be that common I...

I recently purchased a pair of small BJTs they are residing in a 75 reef tank both fish are eating well and aren't shy. My male is covered in what may be ich but looks more noticeable than your standard ich the spots are much bigger. The female has it too but once my halides come on it starts to...

I have a mag drive 12 isn't pumping water. It does pump a little water but not even half of what its supposed to. It is making a loud shaking noise and is really starting to get on my nerves it doesn't even have enough flow to reach my tank it only goes up 5 feet. I don't think it's a priming...

Ok so today I picked up a good size marine betta and right off the bat I'm going to say it is possibly the prettiest fish I've owned. But I noticed it sleeping just now and it seems to sleep a lot like my blue jaw trigger it just uses its fins to hold itself in place between rocks.

I can't find PVC gate valves on the Home Depot, Ace Hardware, or Lowe's websites. Is there any where that I could drive to get one that not made out of metal.

So I was really interested in vodka dosing but if my dad were to stumble upon it well let's just say I wouldn't have this wonderful carbon source for much longer...... Anywho I was thinking I would give this a shot I have a very heavily stocked 75 mixed reef. I have perfect parameters but have...

So on Wednesday last week my Eco-Plus 1267 return pump quit on me for no reason. So I replaced it with a Danner Supreme Classic Mag-Drive 12 so far it's the quietest return pump I've ever owned. It's supposed to be slightly weaker than my old pump but this one handles head pressure much better...

Hey guys my Eco-plus 1267gph return pump failed after 1 month of running I unplugged it to blast out the intake with a turkey Baster I couldn't figure out where I had put the turkey Baster down so I just plugged it back in. Less than 24 hours later I was dead in the water if I unplugged it and...

I went to petco just for laughs and wound up almost crapping my pants. I was in there looking around when I read a price tag that said " semi-Picasso" I was kind of interested because well any designer clown is eye candy to me. When I looked into the tank instead of seeing semi-picasso clowns I...

So I started a thread just like this at like 2 in the morning but no one really saw it. Anyway my favorite fish is my Blue Jaw Trigger. What's yours. Heres a pic of him only had him a week and he's already my absolute favorite not only is totally badass he's 100% reef safe.

My Favorite fish would have to be my male blue throat trigger. I like him because of his of his colors,his personality, and because he's the most badass reef safe fish I've ever seen. What is your favorite. Here he is.

In my reef tank I had a juvenile emperor angel and a lemon peel angel that have been nipping at my anemones. So I grabbed some fishing line and put my reef gently acclimate into trap mode I baited it with a little nori and Mysis. I could have caught every fish in my tank if I wanted to. It took...

I currently have a breeding pair of target mandarins they spawn almost every night I then remove the eggs and get them into a rotifer culture the larvae will live usually until the 72 hour mark and then they all die I understand most people that most people will barely reach the 24 hour post...

Just bought 500 pods on eBay for $20 and I was wondering what do you guys think about buying them over the internet I bought them for a pair of target mandarins in a 40 breeder I've had them for a couple weeks and there as fat as can be I have 80 pounds of rock in there and they are healthy but...

I've always wondered if you could pair a target mandarin with a blue mandarin and have successful spawns because a few years back I had a target mandarin that paired with a fingered dragonet but couldn't keep up with them and sold them to my local fish store. I now have a target pair if you...

Hi I'm new to this forum but my Magnificent anemone and my long tentacle spawn at the same time quite frequently and is really starting to piss me off considering they do it once a month and I end up doing medium to large water changes over the coarse of the next few days is there any way to...
