whatever you buy, let it be not perfecto. All glass or oceanic are best Ender

sounds like the ol' "my snail ate my fish" story line. Brittle or serpant stars are way too slow to be able to catch a moving healthy fish. It's not the star fish who caused his demise. He is just cleaning up the mess Later Ender

Definitly a cool tank! Its the 1st of its kind on the market and a prize to own. And yes oceanic is more expensive Ender

to clarify- i meant $$. Ender

That ichthologist had high prices because he actually knows how to keep fish. his specimens are probably top quality becasue of it and thus more expensive. These days quality take a back seat to price. Why do you think Kia cars are so popular? They are dirt cheap and have a big warrenty...

Walmart? i dont shop there, i happen to like my job. if everyone starts buying whatever they need there, that way cool cheap walmart is doing to put lots of stores out of business. i'd rather pay more and recieve good advice, not further all the hs dropouts from around here in their careers at...

I believe I was being quite fair in telling you not to blame the fish store for something that wasn't their fault. I dislike the fact that people don't understand that this is a science hobby, something everyone is learning from all the time. Information gets updated almost daily as to what is...

Wow, with that kind of reaction I don't feel as though my opinions aren't very welcome in this forum. The hobby is all about learning and being open minded to other people's opinions, good or bad. Thats what forums are all about. Ender

PrettyFishies- Depending on the brand of the tank, if the stand and canopy were custom made or not, and what kind of lighting fixture it comes with will really is going to factor if the price is right or not. Also when you say reef ready, do you mean just a drilled tank, or drilled and a...

So no one likes crushed coral? I hate to tell you but ALL chains stores carry that and sometimes only that. So sometimes employees sell that to people thinking that it will help your buffering capacity, expecially if they think you aren't going to add live rock. Plus sand can pack and cause...

That type of nitrate isnt uncommon in lionfish or eel tanks. Although mushrroms flourishing is quite odd. Usually even soft, easier to keep coral still is bothered by that level of nirtates! And yes, more maintenence is needed, not just 30% change every month. Make sure they aren't just...

Every single fish store asks you to return the corpse. you cannot go to best buy and buy a tv, call back later and say it doesnt work and expect to get another just with a receipt. Thats the proof that the fish died. seal it up 2 different bags with no water and it wont smell.

A reflection on fish life gaurantee... If you have ever bought fish and killed them due to poor acclimation, stressful handling, poor water conditions, incompatability and returned your purchase to the place you bought them, that fish store is losing money on the fish when they offer you a...
