Clowns are a better choice...they can be kept in even smaller tanks, although I wouldn't suggest much smaller. I made the mistake (back in the day) of trying to fit a green chromis in a 7 gal and I replaced it with a blue damsel once it died...neither lasted.

After some time away from the forum (WHY, oh WHY!!??) :onfire: :onfire: I'M :BIG: BACK!!!!!! :onfire: :onfire: It is so great to be back here!! I entered the next level of schooling, and a little stress and work made me forget about this great forum!!! I'm all settled down now though...

I saw that you live in Texas, you can probably get away with the tropicals and some NA native fishes due to the climate. I have also read about people keeping sharks (yes, I said it) in outdoor saltwater ponds after very CAREFUL preparation and measurements. BTW, this is my first post/visit...

Hmmm, no i am not. Gotta look into that...

I have heard about it. It is waterfall sealer, used to seal all gaps in a rock. Quite useful, but the longer the waterfall and the more rocks, the more foam :wink:

Oh, and how big is your tank?

Perhaps a yellow tang? :wink: I don't think that blue tangs are agressive to other tangs of a different species. Check reports of them on websites like liveaquaria.com. I have heard them coexisting in tanks together.

I like the fuzzy better. That is just what i would do.

Well, i probably wouldn't do a crab. They are already wild, and they probably would love to munch on your smaller fish. Live sand, i am not as sure about. Wouldn't try it if i was you. Will have different things in it that aquarium live sand doesn't have. Oh, and what is your aquarium temp...

Hey, if you do do it, i would like to comment on your fish selection. First, the shark will probably jump out. If you did not know, shark owners often bolt the lids down to prevent jumping. Also, the shark would tear the sea stars apart. Post any pics if you do it. Show it in the making and all...

Wow, those are really good prices. Did they take you long to make?

Nope. Males normally only coexist for sexing/mating season and then they stop being 'friendly'. I wouldn't recommend that. Also, another fish might not be a good choice with a betta. Bettas have extremely fragile fins, and the tank is only five gallons. I would stop with one betta. Maybe you...

Very nice! How much LR do you have in there for the Mandarin? Do you have enough? And what did you do with the 30 gal? Good luck on your tank. Be sure to keep us updated with pics and new entries.

4ft inactive bottom dweller shark=several, several thousand gallons 4ft active shark (such as black tip)= Monterey Bay Aquarium If anyone gets a shark, definitly skip the nurse shark. It still grows to 14 feet. Good sharks for a 700 gal... Horn shark Coral catsharks (plural) Banded bamboo...

I would suggest underlayment. It is very strong and virtually unpuncturable. I managed to excavate just a foot of my pond today(which is right next to a very large tree) and we ran into a lot of roots. However, i am using underlayment and liner, and i am not worried at all. I would only use sand...

No promblem, and good luck.

Nevermind, couldn't find it on citysearch.com. But i am positive that is exists.

No, animal zone closed. I am right next to the shopping center. just a sec...

Okay, aquaclearer bacteria from Aquascapes is (quote) bacteria that helps start and maintain a pond's health and clears the water. Try that. How old is the pond? Maybe he needs to clean or buy new filter media.

Well, string algae looks like string. I am guessing that it isn't string algae and is pea soup colored water. Hold on for a bit while i fish up some info...

Hmmm, is your tank planted? I left my planted alone for a week and then i just added fish. Yeah, they will eventually die though. Why do you ask, if i may prod?

Hey guys and gals, Any idea if there are any Aquarium Advice meetings in NC? We should organize one. I would love to meet all of you. Even if we couldn't make one, we should organize a time when we all gather in this forum and talk. Kinda like the chat room on Sundays, but whenever we want it.

It is close to the Old Matress Factory. Well, maybe North Raleigh isn't the right word. Do you know the intersection of Durant and Honeycutt? If you go up the steeper hill you will pass the neighborhoods of Devon and Sheffield Manor(I think) keep following the road. I think those are the right...

What type of algae? I know that there is a string algae control thing. Does he have any lilies? They can shade the water and control algae growth. I am beginning excavation for my pond tonight, infact, and am planning every last minute detail. Good luck with the algae. And check his filtration...
