there is the little fella. he's usually a lighter gray color

ok update :) we're still iced in, but no worries still on the fish killing each other, they seem to be getting along fine. So domino is in love with this anemone. he's been loving it all day every day since it moved to it's curent agreeable spot. i may end up keeping him, i don't want to...

the males are always going to fight. the best you can do is make too many hiding places for the sub dominant fish. Red Zebras can and will fight to the death. they are the more aggressive tendency type fish. as for breeding, i have had juveniles at about 6- 8 months breeding. females holding...

clown loaches :) i lowered the water level about 2 inches. They were in quarantine for about 2 weeks, then hanging out with the cichlids for a further 2. the cichlids are fine, but in the new tank, the loaches are bombing out.. it's so weird.. as the water was a bit murky, i did a 25% pwc...

hey there, i have a fairly new saltwater setup, the whole thing has been up and running for about 9 or 10 months, with one move of house along the way. in it i had a bubble tip anemone, 5 heads of frogspawn, a few frags of zoas and a few little pieces here and there. the livestock was 4...

so, i moved my clowns from quarantine into a 20 gallon with baby acei, and salted water (for my cichlids, i run cichlid salts/ rift lake salts.. for 20 gallons it's a teaspoon each of baking soda, epsom salts and table salt) they were getting along fine, but then due to pressure from outside...

usually quarantine is a ten gallon, but the tank i had for them was used for a momma cichlid to spit her fry. It's going to be 2 more days in the 5, then transfer to a 55. i have 7 because they are said to be better in groups. The 75 gallon should be fine for them until they get bigger...

i would also add, being rather new to it myself that you should absolutely spend the money on quality products... mid range or above. be prepared to drop mad cash on that baby.. one thing you may not have thought of is the cost of the water.. can you afford to do PWC's ona regular basis? AND...

you know, i never figured out what it was, my parameters looked fine, maybe a little low in alkalinity, but who know. thankfully i know a little more about keeping fish now :) i have 3 young adults about 3 inches now, and i just bought 4 from petsmart (i know, i know) and they are tiny little...

OK, so everything i have read about the clown loach ( maybe the wrong pages i guess) says that they are strictly freshwater, but then i saw a photo of one in with cichlids... now i had some trouble keeping them alive in fresh, but now in the salted water, they are thriving.. are we good to...

wow!!! i got a great rainbow shark.. similar to the RTB at least in looks... a little giggle for you maybe? i have a juvenile guppy in a tank with female bettas and one male... well apparently the guppy came of age and decided that the male betta should stay away from his girls.. my lovely...

fwiw, i was given about 10 adult cichlids with a tank and i knew NOTHING about them until this forum. they survived no salts, poor water, low alkalinity, almost acid water and inappropriate tank mates until i got my crap together. they can be pretty hardy little things.. and if all else...

dang it if i can find this fish!! thanks ziggy and fish man.. i swear this fish was a lost betta crossed with an apisto ended up in an estuary and washed out to sea....lol..

hey there, one little fishy, dark gray with yellow on the fins and white spots on the tail fin one tree coral with purple hues one soft coral, opaque green with purpley heads

err... how about you're wonderf ? lol sorry, i have a terrible sense of humor, but i AM laughing :)
