I work at a pet store, and we tried this with a black molly. It didnt really take as long as we thought. And he did really well. we was in one of our tank for about a month and became kind of a mascot. but we ended up selling it. so now someone else has a unique fish to look at

i just got a copperbanded butterflyfish. and my yellow tang is picking on him. What should i do?

I have a PC fixture. and like all PC lights, mine have lost there intensity and are causing lots of algae. What i want to do is take out the PC bulbs (which ive already done) and put in some T-5. would this be possible, or even safe? The prongs on the bulbs look alike, but i want to be sure. I...

I am going to convert a frehwater chiclid tank into a nano FOWLR tank. THere are some really nice rocks in it, that allready look like base rock. If i washed them in really hot water, could i put them in the SW tank?

Will regular floresent Lights keep live plants alive, or are there special lights

it also depends on your lights. I have the same problem with mine. Do you have PC, because they are known to cause brown algee. I recomend you keep up with the water changes, and also look into a skimmer and uv sterilizer if you dont have them already.

so i cant get one because of my anemonie

most yes, but on liveaquaria it says 50 for the threadfin and bannerfish

I have an O. Clown, a Yellow Tang and a Condi Anemonie. My tank is a 50 gal. Can I get any butterflys. I know i cant get a Copperbanded, but mabey a threadfin? Im mainly worried about my anemonie, but live aquaria says that anemonie arnt in ther diet? Would this work?

The same thing happened to me, it would work its way under a rock, but eventually it will reach out its arms toward the light, then move compleatly into the open..hopefully

Yea, when i first got mine, he kept swiming alone the back of the tank, in the same pattern, like he was following a trail. But now hes perfectly normal. And I feed mine lettuce, and i leave it in until most of it is gone, then take the stem part out, which usually takes a day. Also i would...

bad actually, i turn it on at like 5 30, because thats when i get up, but that would mean id have to turn it off at 5, but i get home anywhere from 6 to 8 and i want to watch them s0 mabey i turn it off at like 9 or 10

i feed my clown 1 or 2 flakes, my tang lettuce, and i target feed my anemonie brine shrimp

how do i cut back on feeding when i feed once a day? Once every other day?

I have lots of purple/brown patches of algee on my sand? How do i get rid of it? Inverts?
