I have a $20 gift card to Sea Schor in Buffalo Grove, IL. I need to get rid of it and would sell it for $15. If you buy it you can either pick it up from my home in Oswego or I will ship it for free. I will only accept cash or paypal as forms of payment. The store is really great, they offer...

I've been a firm believer that most puffers get a pretty bad wrap. Every species has it's bad apples but most puffers I've experienced are actually quite passive, and today I witnessed some proof! I have a 6" Spiny Box Puffer and 6" Dogface Puffer. I have a 24" Snowflake Eel. Typically when I...

I've had the anemone pictured below for a little over a month. He's been healthy, colorful, full & has had clowns hosting in him the whole time. Today I came down to check my tanks and the anomone had split. I'm assuming this is an unhealthy split? The big anemone has now moved for the first...

I've wanted one of these guys for awhile, and when I saw they had one at my LFS I couldn't pass it up. :) First time I've seen one for sale in a year and I got a good deal on it ($90). He's eating really well, took down half a krill this morning!

I have a 30 gallon FOWLR with a clownfish. He's a little desperate to host... he's created little pockets in the sand which he has decided to try to host in. I feel bad and want to get him something. I have standard fluorescent lighting and don't really want to upgrade. I know anemones are out...

What do you guys prefer to use freeze dried or frozen krill? I have always used frozen but I am considering making the switch to freeze dried. From what I understand, freeze dried is cheaper, lasts longer, and has far better liquid vitamin absorbtion. It also takes a lot less time to prep and...

I have a 210 gallon saltwater tank that I post about sometimes on these forums, but today I went out and purchased a 270 gallon pond liner. We've dug about half of the hole today, so I'm sure I will be posting a lot of questions!

My Majestic Angelfish has had a strange mark on his side for a while now. I first noticed it about three weeks ago when it pretty much just looked like a discolored scale. It got slightly bigger and resembled a tiny blister, then went away. I then noticed about three days ago it was back and...

I haven't had any fish in my quarantine tank for probably about 4 months now. It's been running with a filter and everything; parameters have been ideal for the whole time. I bought a dwarf lionfish and put him in my quarantine tank. He, like many lionfish, wouldn't eat frozen food. I spent...

I'm looking into buying a Blue Girdled (aka Magestic) Angelfish and I was wondering if anyone knew the difference between the ones from the Indo-Pacific or the ones from the Coral Sea?

I have a young Picasso triggerfish (about 2-3") and a young Snowflake Eel (about 7-8" but skinny) who are sharing a tank right now. They get along great but when it's feeding time, the trigger acts like a jealous kid! He doesn't care at all about the food until the eel tries to go eat it, at...

I just purchased a new 210 gallon tank and two of the pieces of hardware I bought for it were the All-Glass Aquarium model 4 sump and a Berlin Turbo Classic protein skimmer. My specific question is, the protein skimmer is obviously a lot taller than the sump and there's a plastic removable...

I'm about to buy a 200 gallon tank which I plan to house aggressive fish in. I'm trying to plan what I'm going to put in there. I really like these fish, and was wondering if anyone knew of any major compatibility issues, etc niger trigger clown trigger spiny box puffer dog-face puffer volitan...
