He does not seem to bother my blue legged hermit crabs. But thanks for the info!

Finally got some pics taken....enjoy and tell me what you think!

not really..i took some pictures. Let me get them up

I just a hudge hermit crab today. However, the pet store did not know what type of crab he was. I was wondering if anyone can help me out in this area. He is Red with white a blue dots all over him. Eye color is normal i guess...not yellow though I know that. He seems to be hinding in my LR...

My clown fish has little white spots on the tips of his fins and has been spitting something out of his mouth. Is he sick?

yeah i just set it up like 2-3 months ago. I let it cycle with the raw shrimp...then I went aheaded and added tank cleaners to start off with.... how do i prevent diatoms? What are they?

I use crushed coral for my bed in my tank. I also have 2 turbo snails and 6 hermits. After about a week the crushed coral starts turning brown, is that normal?

I wasnt sure what the hardness test was for and if having a lot of hardness was a good thing. Thanks for your help.

I keep getting a high reading on my water hardness, what can I do to bring it down?

Sorry to say everyone, but my snail was in fact dead. I came home from classes today and found my hermits eating him and he stunk. Not to worry though, I have to other snails in the tank and they are doing just fine.

yeah it does...I took him out of the tank to see if he reacted when i touched him, but he didnt. He is tightly closed. So I put him back in the tank to see if he will open up again. I thought he just might be really stressed out. If the hermits start to clean him up I will know to remove him...

I am using crushed coral in my 37 gallon tank. I was told that it really doesnt matter which to use..sand or coral. With the coral, it will need a little more attention with cleaning. So for that you would need good bottom feeders and a gravel cleaner. Crushed coral is also a little cheaper...
