    Ruby dragonette - feeding observation

    i just thought it was interesting because so many people say they have trouble getting them to eat anything but copes. I just decided to give it a shot and he looked confused then ate one and dove into the rest. I always direct feed with tweezers into the corals and to the shrimp when I do...

    Ruby dragonette - feeding observation

    So I have a 6 gallon reef with shrimp, snails, serpent star, and a ruby dragon. There are pods in the tank and I feed him frozen which he also takes fine but today while feeding worms to my freshwater fish I went to the reef. I will occasionally give my shrimp and some coral live worms. Didn't...

    20 gallon long rescape

    My old 20 gallon setup was just getting wrecked. loaded with BB algae, wrong plants overtaking, right plants choking out, blah blah. Decided to pull it all out and redo the entire thing. Ditched the black diamond substrate for white pool sand. Hopefully it doesnt become a gross mess. Ditched...

    Going to rescape

    Im kind of trying to do something similar but sticking more with fish who dont like to hide. I would love to keep my pea puffers but I think theyre starting to decimate my shrimp and cray population, and they LOVE to hide for extended periods. Unless I get a small 6 gallon just for the 2 of...

I have a bit of a blackbeard algae growing on EVERYTHING Im looking to change my sag carpet to a hairgrass carpet and instead of free range plants Im...

    lettuce nudi question

    It seemingly move to the front now. Maybe there is some micro algae growing around the rim it just likes that I can't see.

    lettuce nudi question

    Thanks. It's only a 3 gallon so my flow control is actually minimal and mostly DIY. I'll keep a good eye on it for now! I'm sure there is something up there it likes just want to know what. Like I said the only thing I see if brown specks. Unless there is really fine hair algae I can't see.

    lettuce nudi question

    picked up a small lettuce nudi last week from an LFS as I wanted one for a while. I do have different algaes in my nano reef so I figure there is going to be something in there it will like, hair included but Ive noticed the last couple days its actually hanging out at the top of my tanks...

    Aquarium corner braces??

    Just curious if anyone has DIY'd or 3d printed corner braces for modified rimless tanks? I'm looking to turn my 2 20 longs into rimless top only but would feel safer with some kind of corner support. I was looking at these Aquarium Lid Clips Universal Lid Clips for Rimless Aquariums Rimless...

    aquarium background installation

    dont know how you are going to do this in a live tank. could try using waterproof earth magnets. I did that with one I made while back. only other possible option I can think is to drain the tank as humanly low as you can without really messing with the fish. silicone the back really good in...

    Question about anti breeding?

    So dummy me threw a couple guppies into my 20 long thinking all the other fish would eat the fry, well not quite. I can probably fish them out and give them to the LFS but can SOMEONE recommend something that might go after the fry but not go after the shrimp? I have a guorami, blue ram ...

    Nano reef and fresh planted shrimp ars

    It's begins! Couple of jars from Ikea, drilled and inserted some barbed airline fittings in the back to hide everything as best as possible. Will update the thread as it goes. Hoping for the reef the most. Going to be some frags with maybe a shrimp and some snails. Would love a small lettuce...

    Ugh - mistake purchase... ?

    I'm the same. I had a great 55 (pics are probably still in my profile) but it was to much work. 20 long is my new favorite and I've gotten into more smaller fish. I'm going to set up a few nano setups soon to. I have a 5 gallon Betta and frog tank as well. I've also drilled a 20 long to set up...

    Ugh - mistake purchase... ?

    It's a gorgeous fish though they get drab as they grow bigger so again I dont plan to keep it. I'd like to start finding people locally I could re-home my fish tho because I hate handing them back to the store. I just gave them 3 great clowns and man was that a story. I'd give this to you in...

    Ugh - mistake purchase... ?

    I have a 20 long planted pretty densely. It's got a few diff mini species in it. I always wanted a leapord fish and was at my lfs and saw a very small juvenile and grabbed it. I don't expect to keep it forever as most of my fish I eventually re-home due to growth but one fish we really wanted...
