I have had some christmas tree worms for at least 8 months now and recently i have noticed them not coming out as much. i have 3 different rocks with them. the blue ones still come out quite a bit but the red ones and the multicolored ones aren't coming out. does any one know anything about...

So we went to the LFS today just to buy some food and they had a new half circle tank that they had set up like 2 weeks ago stocked with fish finally. I went over to look at the fish and a bunch of them had ich. There is also coral in the tank so I thought I would ask if they were treating them...

so i tried the formula 2 and fresh calurpa yesterday and he didn't seem to thrilled but i did see him take a few bites of the calurpa and when i came back in the afternoon the cube of formula 2 and all the calurpa was gone so i would assume he ate it. i put some more green in today and i think...

So I bought the Atlantic blue tang he is very healthy looking and really small so it will be fun to watch him grow up. I have had him for 3 days in QT now and have offered him algae every day on a clip and so far I haven’t seen him eat any of it. I have also have fed him live brine, frozen...

Yeah my tangs were all really really healthy till the ICH problem and then we moved them in to QT and started HYPO and 4 days later they were all dead. i feed them nori every day almost and i soaked it in garlic, zoe, and zoe con so i dunno. i think it was just a freak thing that happend.

I think i am going to go for him. he looks really healthy. he is about 2 in so he is small i have a 29 gal QT set up for him and after the QT he will be going into a 150 gal so i think he should be ok. Thanks for the advice

I was wondering if anyone had one of these tangs? and if anyone knows if they are more ich prone or not? i know that tangs like archilles and powder brown tangs are very ich prone because they are more velvet like then some of the other tangs. I guess any information or advice anyone has on...
