LIke Lance said, there is no one way for success, different tanks require differenf solutions. I had a bad algae problem for years. we tried everything, new lights, less food, more frequent water changes, phosguard, other chemicals, I think once apon a time we were even boiling water. it was...

Lil guy is doing fine tonight, Ill try something a little different (for feeding) tomorrow. Although now that I think of it, he spends all his time at the surface. There is pleanty of habitat for him, hmmm Thanks Wade

I think you are probbly right, its most likely the swim bladder. He seemed to be doing better this morning, but I didnt get much of a chance to watch him, I was in from work and back out to college, Ill get a better chance to check him out tonight, and again tomorrow when I feed again. Thanks Wade

Heres one from the "My fish is swimming upside down" book I have a tomato clown that has been in a well established tank for atleast 2 months. His only other tank mates are a PJ cardinal, and a Coral banded shrimp, and a few craps for cleanup. Tonight I fed them, a small pinch of flakes...

Cant really offer any advice, since this is way out of my league, but it sure does sound like a dream tank!!!! Good luck!!!!

Not sure if the spotted cardinal and the pajama cardinal are the same thing or not. But I had a few of these guys, they were great.... Sure they werent fast movers, but I like the way they huddle (school) I had 3 of these in my 35. http://www.nano-reef.com/fish/?fish=2 They look nice with a...

How well established is your tank? (how old is it?) How much liverock do you have? Does she have any that will also need to go into your tank? The amount of live rock and subsequently coralline algae will determine how much of a bio load your tank can handle. As for the clown, you could try...

I like the pj cardinals pretty neat dosile fish!

YOu know ive considered something similar. When I build my house (Years away) why not just dig out another room while digging the basement. This "other room" could be sealed off and used as a HUGE tank!!!! Prolly just a dream and will most likely never happen.... But I always figured if I did...

You know,,,, its been a while, but I dont think I remember seeing any significant spikes when I was starting my tank. I started out with a few Damsels then in a month or so moved up to cardinals and never really had any trouble with the tank. Had to get rid of the damsels for tank bullying though.

HMMMMM That tank looks familiar!!!!!!! Thanks for watching it for me While Im Gone!!!!!

Semper,,,

YOure up aweful early!!!! I like the idea of posting a note on the wall of your LFS. or even checking your local malls, some sometimes they have a big ole tank that you might be able to talk them into taking your friend. Good Luck with it. Wade

There is a place on this earth for every animal, Right next to the potatoes! That being said, Honestly the only reason people dont eat Tangs and other tank fish,,,, There is no meat on them..... Personally, I think its funny when people talk about what animals they wouldnt eat,,, Consider how...

Ok My Turn My Name is Wade, I am 28, I am a Scorpio, I like long walks on the beach, Pina Coladas and getting caught in the rain,,,,,,,, Wait thats the other Bio.......... Lets see, I am a former Marine form Kansas, I fell in love with the ocean while learning to Scuba dive in Japan. After...

Off the topic, but I had an African Cichlid for a few years. His name was Hoffa. He didnt allow tankmates. One time I was out fishing, we were seining minnows and caught a 6inch channel cat. So I took him home and put him in with Hoffa, figuring that the catfish was big enough to fend for...

I have both in my tank, I havnt noticed either one being really aggressive. However that being said,,, I have found a few carcasses in the tank. Not sure if they molt and that is what I am seeing, but I will see it any way. I also have a Purple Condylictus that seems to be pretty uneffected. I...

I tell people that I am not going to be happy till I have a tank I can scuba dive in!!!!

This fish store had several different tanks with Tangs in them, If I do get more I will get some out of a different tank, I didnt notice, but this was a very well stocked store, with probbably 70 different tanks. I am not sure if they share a filter or not. I have decided that, since I already...

Well I ran to walmart and got a 5 gallon hex, ran to the LFS got more crushed coral, and set up the hex tank. I took the crushed coral and water out of my main tank to set up the QT. Threw in a chunk of LR. Let the QT adjust for a few hours, let the tang adjust for about 45 mins. Turned him...

Well I cant show you the picture because its too big, But I bought a Yello Tang today, He's a little guy, The tank he was in looked great and every body looked pretty good. I brougt him home, let him adjust for an hour and set him loose. A few hours after that, I noticed little white spots...

Ive never tried them, All I know is what I read on here,,,,, Most Common thought,,,,,They are not recommended.

This guy has been doing this for the last few nights. He dosnt do it every night, but he will only do it at night. As you might be able to see in the pic, he will withdraw his tenticles, all the way inside his body. Is this a normal cycle, or is something going bad? I have only had him for a...
