I thought about that but figured there would be enough space to share. The chromis are definetly the lower priority.

I am going from my current 36" 65G reef which has been up for a year to a half to a 96" 240G reef. You guys warned me I would outgrow the 65G but I wouldn't listen, 65 is a lot of gallons right? RIGHT? :lol: Anyway, I have decided that I want this tank to have lots of anthias which I have not...

How long has your tank been up and running? It is always good advice to quarrantine everything as I am sure you know, and that would be my adive here, however at the same time I know of a lot of Potter's angel keepers who made the decision to put the fish straight into the display because of...

I have a kole and a PBT in a 65 for over a year now and they are both happy and healthy as could be. The PBT doesn't bother anyone unless they are a new addition. In any case it isn't the tangs I worry about in my tank, it is a red spot damsel who is not larger than both tangs and is very...

I think I might actually prefer that, it would allow me to have another column swimmer group.

So, I was in the my LFS last week and saw one of these beautiful fish. I always liked the colors of anthias but they always seemed to slender and delicate looking for my tastes. This one has colors that are just as vibrant but with its sea bass type shape is far more to my liking. In any...

What do you mean by plastic critter cages? like a kennel?

I live in South Carolina and have ordered from them online. Only corals, and I have never had a problem.

Well, it looks like it is a moot point. I just build every configuration of fish trap possible over the course of the day and didn't catch a **** thing. I don't have the time, money, or resources to break down the reef so it looks like these guys will just be living with ick.

So, I am about to start my ich treatment and thus have been reading up how its done. I have two hospital tanks set up, a 15 gallon for my tang and one or two small friends and a 10 galon for everyone else. Whole reading it was stated that I should try to introduce infected fish rapidly into...

Corals have to deal with long periods of low light in nature as well, a hurricane can block out most of the sun for days at a time. One or two won't hurt, just don't leave your lights on or you might get bleaching. My tank can go a week without topoff.

My cleaner shimp are fearless, they happly clean my hand without food let alone take food from it!

If you already have the 3" tank who stop at 50? There are 65/70/75g tanks with the same footprint that will greatly increase your options for very minimal cost

My cherub is reef safe, but there is always a small risk with any angel. I chose the Cherub because it stays small, 2-3 inches, while flame angels can reach 4-5.

Clowns will host a power head sometimes. Weird little guys!

You tank size is absolutely fine for that Kole. You can probably get away with three or four more small-medium fish. I suggest: 1 Midas Blenny (my new favorite fish) 1 Talbot Damsel (I have had three, no problems with any of them) 1 Dwarf Angel (Cherub is what I have)

Well, it was a great 7 month honeymoon period with my PBT, but what many had been telling me was inevitable since I got him finally happened, he came down with ick... So, it is time to start thinking about treatment. Here are my current fish. 1 Talbot Damsel 1 Red One Spot Damsel 1 Midas...

For a second I thought it might be particularly awesome elegance so I thought I'd ask!

Also remember that the "stalks" of your frogspawns are not alive. I have a few mounted on m live rock with the fleshy part only starting 3-4" off the rock where mushrooms and zoas have filled in. No problems.

I have an LPS tank, and all my corals are hammers of frogspawns except for an Elegance and a told stool and a few zoas. The problems with placements I was having was actually just with the hammers and frogspawns, apparently I was moving everything around for nothing!

That first one is a clam right? Is that second to last one a Fox coral?

Sweet, that makes my coral placement much easier!

Will a frogspawn sting a frogspawn? A hammer a hammer? I know acans won't sting another acan no matter how different, is this the same with other corals?

I drop all of those types or critters in by hand (unless they are snails that can't right themselves).

Wow, I wish I had read those posts before starting my rescue. In any case using a net or my hands proved impossible. I just didn't have enough room or light to catch him. So I turned off my return pump, pulled out the overflow pipe and drained the overflow. I had intended the above actions...
