Can you mix green and blue chromis? If I got two of each, will they most likely school together? Thanks.

Reefrunner is right. There is a cowfish/puffers group on yahoo. Also check out www.cowfishes.com The person who mainains that site is also in the yahoo group. If you get in there, ask her about her article "Curious Cowfish" Her name is Theresa Ulrich. Best article I have ever read on cowfish.

Agreed. I am a membr of other boards as well, but this is by far my favorite. I think the people here are nicer then anywhere else I visit. I have to admit, I'm surprised anyone had ahd a problem here...

I remember the topic... I just didn't remember if you said what you used. I was pondering changing from IO myself...Thanks. How's the tank Bearfan?

What do you use...

Not purchase fish from liverocks.com... Generally speaking. I think the LR is more exciting than new fish! LOL! Gotta admit, I would buy almost anything they would sell though...

I agree with reef obsessed. I have a pearly jawfish that I didn't even see for the first week and a half... When he came out, he had built a burrow in the back of the tank. Within another week or so, he moved it to the center of the tank. I think they just try to stay low key and feel most safe...

Gee, me too. My second tank is still cycling and I'm already thinking about a third! Can't wait to get more LR from them either... It's almost more exciting then the fish! LOL

I can't get that image out of my head!

Hello! I was wondering what kind of experiences people have had with cowfish and various macro algae. Mine gets quite a bit of dry sushinori sheets, but I wanted to have a supply of live maccroalgae for him as well. Are there any kinds they prefer or are better for them? I was looking at both...

I use the dry sheets of sushinori found in the grocery store (for my cowfish). I just use a clip and it holds up just fine...

What made you decide to try SW? That's how I decided what direction to go. I saw a long horned cowfish and fell in love! So are there any particular fish that made you think Oh my gosh, I have to have one of those? Then plan your tank around that. I spent years (very much because I couldn't...

Not sure yet... I plan on having soft corals though so will have to keep an eye out. And I wouldn't let them go in the ocean - it would be way too cold for them out here! LOL
