hey looks real good! about the temp, if you havent fixed it yet, I had a 2.5 set up a little while ago and now its a 10g, but what I did for temp was this: I had 2 aquaclear 20s, one had rubble and a clump of chaeto for maintaing my nitrates, and the other I put a visitherm stealth 25w heater...

My post may have sounded weird to some people but Ill find the research on it, theyre just like bio-balls in a reef, mostly useless. I tested my water after I had the wheels running in it, and the wheels harbored nitrates, my levels were bad, and after 3 days of no wheels, back to normal, I...

I find the idea behind the biowheel sound, but when they are in use it just doesnt work. The wheels tend to build up bad things like ammonia and nitrates, and dont do their said job which I believe is to export nutrients. That being said, a filter without the wheels can perform its job just...

this seems to be heresy on any reef site around, but with some tweeking and mods the seaclone 100 is perfect for that size tank, I have one on my 10gallon nano and on my 29long +10sump/fuge, skims like a champ have you considered getting a nanocube and having it altered by nano-customs, they...

hey guys I remember all of yall! been awhile since Ive been on here, been spending most of my time in Nano-Reef but that place has gone to the dogs lately rinse that baby out good, copper is a big problem with some people when they switch from fresh to salt even if they didnt dose for it, ive...

any news?

my maroon is about 1.5 inches in a 10G aga tank with assorted corals, no other fish. i dont really even understand much of what he said, and ive been getting alot of responses on nanoreef, apparently Wilkersons 'Clownfish' is a must read, but no one has solidly answered the 'what gender do...

fyi for anyone interested i have started a big thread with all the info i have so far going against all the info the other guy has so far on Nano-Reef.com if your a member wish to become one or just want to watch the progress of the thread its under the general discussion in the forums. any...

heres his backup: http://reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=215088 he also says its in the book Clownfish by Dr. Wilkerson, but he hasnt quoted any text or said he has the book so im waiting on that part

sweet, thanks much on a lighter side i got a new 2 headed frogspawn a ricordea a three headed caulestra (if they are referred to as headed) and a little zoa colony today in the mail, only paid 40 bucks for it all on frags.org, awesome deal, the frogspawn and the ricordea look great already

great articles, but it doesnt address the issue of a clown being by itslef in captivity or the wild, if a clown is alone in a tank, and has no contact with any other clown or fish of any kind, what sex will the clown become at maturity. Weve established that it is male/unisex but there isnt an...

loyalrogue thats just what i wanted to hear, and completely agree ''In every case and article I have read, the actual gender changing switch occurs only when it's "triggered" by the social necessity. If an anemonefish is kept alone there is nothing to trigger or necessitate the gender switch to...

hahaha, how big is he and what size tank?

completely agree roka, but this clown is kept by himself instead of in a pair or a wild heirarchy so the circumstances are a bit different, what will happen if its alone for a long time

if you by chance find it let me know, m newest response from the guy was ''you were told wrong'' when i said the latest to him, but he wont back it up with anything

yea thats what i thought, but this guy told me: ''All singly kept clowns turn female, I prefer to think that people sometimes draw conclusions based on limited information yet pass it as fact, rather than conscious lying. With clowns, it's just a matter of dominance... the most dominant becomes...

i have mixed answers on this so if someone can post an article on this to back it up as well as their reply that would be great all clowns are born male, now do they tend to stay male if kept by themself in a tank, or do they turn female, some have said they stay male and others have said if...

have a pacu in a 55g with a gold gourami and a cory catfish, hes a pretty decent sized fellah, workin on a new home for him in a larger tank. anyway hes never bothered anything in the tank until today. at one point I had about 15 small wild caught crayfish in there and it slowly whittled down to...

update: the 2g has now become a 10g AGA and will eventually become a 10g with 2g sump when i have some money and time. Its running a powerhead pro3 with around 150-260 gph- thats what the box said anyway, i got it from a guy who had it in the box for three years and it runs great, and the ac20...

well its dead now, and the other is fine, so the thread may now be buried

i have it in a 55gallon tank thats been cycled for 6 months, everyone in it is happy, and edit one is 4.5 inches and the other is just under 4. The 20g was also cycled, at least a year old.... if they get too big they can go in our pond later. It was a big goldfish bowl, little for them. all im...

guy from about a half an hour away just brought me two of these, said they were too big for his 20g....yea..ones about 6 inches long and the other is about 5-this is the trouble one. He brought them over in a little goldfish bowl and they were both having oxygen issues, th bigger one is ok now...

the tiny little bright red ones! i love those but im afraid they would get destroyed by these others and maybe even the fish, my gourami eats anything

yes they are native, central virginia, and this is just a guess by what they very much look like and most definitely do not look like they are not agressive with fish, just with themselves, theyll eat each other if a hardcore fight breaks out, and theyll grow to their surroundings, found one in...

they are either hobbs crayfish or dulanes crayfish, may be both for all i know, got 15 now
