    Seahorses?

    Hi everyone, as the topic suggests I had a question about sea horses. So I had a 12 gallon nano reef. Then after 2 years converted it into a growing frag tank for my big 110 gallon tank. Anyway now my big tank is finished and all is well my 12 gallon only has 2 shrimps in it. So I was wondering...

    Blenny, hawkish and goby together?

    Thanks for the replies, I was thinking of the keyhole and I've already checked my blenny. I had my blenny in my nano reef tank for 2 years. It had all sorts in it and the blenny didn't eat anything so thankfully I won't lose any of my expensive corals. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

    What made you want a REEF aquarium?

    I walked into my LFS when I was 12 and saw a copperband butterflyfish, I literally there and then said I wanted it. I was recommended a 110litre freshwater tank. Over 3 years I've worked my way up now have a 100gallon reef tank with my copperband. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

    Mixing tangs?

    Nice, and I'm not going to rely on these tangs to get rid of algae. I'm just creating a reef tank so the majority of the fish I have are to complete a job and make my job easier. So two tangs that are good at grazing at algae would be awesome. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

    Mixing tangs?

    I do love the powder brown but I thought the scopas tang would be better at managing algae. Or is it a tie? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

    Mixing tangs?

    Hi all, wanted to ask if you could mix a kole yellow eye tang and scopas tang. I was hoping I could because they have different body shapes but wanted to double check. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

    Attack of the Bristleworms

    Thanks. So was it the larger Bristleworms that ate my small hermit crabs or must it have been something else? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

    Attack of the Bristleworms

    There are 3 in the pic and it's only a small part of the tank. If there are too many what would be the best way to remove them or any reef safe predators? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

    Attack of the Bristleworms

    Hi everyone as the title suggest I have a bristle worm infestation. To boost Coraline algae growth i put my razors up to 100percent and overfed my tank. Doesn't matter to me as only have a foxface, maroon clown and bicolour blenny in the 140gallon tank. Anyway this obviously meant there was a...

    Maxspect Razor lighting unit

    Hi everyone as the title suggest my question is about the Maxspect Razor lighting unit 16000K. How long and what percent should I run the lights? I would like to keep corals that need a decent amount of light but I don't want to fry them or starve them of light. I have softies on the bottom of...

    Weird thing popping out of polythoa

    It is a polythoa. I can't really see what's happening in the photo besides one time it's open and the other it is closed. It makes more of itself by asexual reproduction by splitting it's mouth or base. Is this happening or is something else happening in the photo? Sent from my iPhone using...

    Stand

    It could probably take the weight. But there is no point risking it I would add supports anyway. Minimises the chance of you getting home and seeing your beloved tank scattered all over the floor. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

    Newbie

    Welcome to the forum. It is correct for them to give you a hardy fish to help cycle the tank. It's better to do a fishless cycle but that is quite complicated so it's best to just do it with fish the first time around. Only get one fish like a betta or a small shoal of white cloud minows. Don't...

    your opinion

    Might be a bit big but I think they look amazing. Congo tetras. If you like the look of them but your worried about your bioload just do a bigger water change more frequent. That's what I do it means I can add an extra couple of fish. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

    I never suspected these guys were killers...

    I have never known of cleaner shrimp doing this. But it does sound logical and normal if they were just removing the other shrimp so they could happily spawn in peace. In the wild they would have just chased it away but that obviously isn't possible in an aquarium so the only other option was to...
