    Trigger hiding and stopped eating

    Good ideas. Thanks, he's really taken to picking Nori off the tang clip. So I put a tad of prawn in it and occasionally he'll pick at that too. (a bite every other day or so, but when I watched him he spit it out later, hoping it was just too big.) I'll try anything right now. Looks pretty thin...

    Trigger hiding and stopped eating

    I know, thats why I'm so confused. Parameters are spot on, nothing new in the tank, he was doing so well. So sudden. I just love him, so bummed. (ya know, now that I think of it I increased my water changes from 5 to 10 gal. a week. The tank is 75gal. and with refug. it probably amounts to about...

    Trigger hiding and stopped eating

    Hi, I have a juvenile picasso trigger I've had a few months. Very small and thin when I got him. Been feeding him very well and he is fat and thriving. A few days ago he stopped eating and comes out very little. He does come out when I feed but doesn't eat. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks

    Hello, I'm noticing (along with pods and algae) very hard brown spots, bigger than pods and not semetrical. (flat) real hard to scrub off. Anyone know what they are? thanks

    Catch a coral banded shrimp

    Hi, can anyone tell me an easy way to catch this big and fast CBS? Lots of rock and corals and such so don't want to tear tank apart. Have tried many times but it's on to me. Thank you

    Coral banded shrimp nice?

    No, not attack, just nibble it's tail off, all else is in tack. It's a very young and small lion No bigger than the shrimp. Also have an aggressive dotty back, it's one of the two.

    Coral banded shrimp nice?

    Hi, I wrote awhile ago how my dwarf lion lost it's tail. There is a mature coral banded shrimp in with it. When I read on it it said they're not at all aggressive to fish, but someone else told me different. Any experiences with this? Thank you

    Delayed Thanks all, just got these, my mac decided to put it under "bulk mail" I kept checking "inbox". Frustrating. Yeah, I'm a little concerned cuz he just wants the misis and pellets. No veggies! Thanks

    One thing after another!

    I didn't see this till today, my mac decided to put it in a different file! Cycled 2 weeks with his sand in sump and tons of live rock. Then we added a few fish. TINY blue hippo tang and TINY sweetlips, dwarf lion, fire fish and dotty back and green goby. As I said, within 2 days both tiny fish...

    One thing after another!

    Started a nice 90 gal. tank. Had proffessional do it. Good guy, smart, knows alot. First my VERY young tang and sweetlips got sucked to the pumps. Then trying to make sure my goby got enough to eat, I overfed the tang, he got stressed and got ich. Cut way back on food, getting much better. NEXT...

    How much algae for tang

    Hi all, how much algae (dried, wafer) should I be feeding my tang? I put a 2-3 inch piece in daily and its gone. Could be getting soft and just falling off? I do see it eat it. Also a couple of clowns in there but i don't see them eat it. Thanks

    Anemone dying?

    He checked my perimeters, said they're adequate. Acclimated drip method, 2 hours. (water removal after 1) Then, as I said he looked happy little camper for 2 days. You'd think if the water were the issue he'd show signs right away?

    Anemone dying?

    Thank you, my guess (since he grows and reproduces corals) is that my lighting is not as good, yet, since he installed and knows it, i would think adequate. Appreciate your time.

    Anemone dying?

    75 gal tank. Set up 6 mo's. Professional did it. (I do believe he knows reef) Lighting- he didn't say except "led" but he does mostly reef. It's the orange stringy stuff and open mouth with white around thats scaring me. Thank you

    Anemone dying?

    Hi all! I got an anemone about 5 days ago. Looked perfect first 2 days. Shot some food to it. It now has white area around mouth. Mouth opens and closes. It's much smaller and is releasing an orange stringy substance. It just shriveled up, (which I hear is common at first) it's the other stuff...

    Thats what I was afraid of, at first I thought "how cool!" Now they're spreading so fast I'm defiantly concerned. Thanks

    Little white things
