I got a blue spotted jawfish about 5 months ago, he was little but not shy. My tank was not very populated at the time so he was very comfortable free swimming. Now that I have added a few more fish and some I had to add at the same time. I noticed that the jawfish became very stressed out over...

I bought a beautiful tang this weekend called a "Doctor Fish". I can't seem to find any information about it. It's body is black with a white tail. Is this the right name?

Ok, I was listing everything on "My Tank info" mostly for my jounal. And discovered I have alot more in my tank than I thought. My protein skimmer dosen't get real nasty, I clean it once a week. I do a 20gal PWC every two weeks. All of the water peramiter are good. My nitrate was a little high...

Saturday I purchased a pair of yellowheaded sleeper gobies. Sunday My whole tank was a cloud of fog. I expected to have some of that. But now it's Tuesday and it's still a mess. Will it ever clear up? Or is there something I should do?

I have had 2 sandsifting starfish in my tank for about 7 months and doing great. Over the last week or so I have noticed that they piggyback all of the time, sifting or moving.

I want a cube! Do I go nano or bio? What's the difference? Pros? Cons? Dose anyone have a preference?

I have something that's growing in my tank that looks like red algea. Is there such a thing? It's on one individual LR with some yellow carnation coral and spreading on to the sand. I put the LRw/coral in the tank 4 weeks ago. What is it? Is it OK? Should I get rid of it, and how?

I replaced the LED bulbs in my light fixture for the lunar lights yesturday, left them on all night. Today all my fish are freeking-out, like there having a panic attack. Is this because of the lights on, or should I be looking for something else?

I have a 3" orange paddle sponge I bought a little over a month ago. Has been a good solid orange until a few days ago it started looking a little milky in some areas. Nothing changed in my tank. Perimeters have not changed, no new coral, no new fish. What's the deal?

I have a 140 SW, can I put two, blue spotted jawfish in it? :rolleyes:

NO, it's not a personal problem. I purchased 2 emerald crabs two months ago. Both were about the size of a dime. One has grown a little, but the other has become HUGE. I mean it's more like the size of a tarantulae, kind of looks like one also. It has now started to pop the bubbles on my bubble...

A few weeks ago I can upon a link that identified things in your tank as good or bad "WHAT IS THAT?" bugs, worms, that kind of stuff. I can't find it now. Dose anyone know what I'm talking about?

I have been told I should take out the bio ball in my sump. Yes? No? If so why and what with?

I set my tank up about 4 months ago. In the last month I have started getting algae balls. I was told that emerald crabs would help, but they have only gotten a few. I think I have about 5 to 10, that I can see. I want to take then out, but I have heard that if they burst it can be horrible, so...

Hey, hope someone has an idea. I have a 150 SW 48"x24"x30". I'm having a problem with fish jumping out of the tank or into the overflow. My tank is built into a cabinet so it makes it hard to get around in the overflow. I'm wanting some jawfish so I know this could be a big problem with them. I...

Hi, I'm Elise, from Ft. Worth, Texas. We have recently remodeled our house (a big remodel). My husband wanted a built-in big screen Plasma, and I wanted a built-in big saltwater tank. I think I got the better deal. I had a custom wall of cabinets made for the tank and tv. That was a big project...

I am not sure if I have a problem with my tank, or a piece of coral. I think the coral. I have a 140 gallon saltwater tank about 2 months old, (so I don't know what I am doing yet). Everything has been running great, the water has been perfect, I have only a few small pieces of coral and five...
