SO after the unfortunate loss of my Gold headed sleeper Goby I am looking into engineer Gobies. Anyone have any experience with these? I haven't really payed to much attention to them, however after looking into them more I think they are quite the interesting type. (for those who don't know...

So I have A few select corals, and one of the corals is rather on a small piece of a rock. I keep having the issue of my emerald crab grabbing pieces off the rock and knocking it over onto the sand. Which can't be good. Is there any solution to this? The other two corals I have are bigger...

So on may ninth I went to Dayton, Ohio to a place called Gerbers Gazette. I should of taken a picture and I didn't. It's quite amazing. I asked the guy about this fish and he gave me an interesting story behind it. He was telling me how they will take trade in's for fish which would outgrow...

So I have come to another confusing part of the aquarium life. I know fish need a variety of nutrition which comes from different types of food. My mother decided to bring me home a 5" gold headed sleeper goby. (I don't think the tank needed the extra bio-load yet, however have been checking and...

So I come home, and I find my banded shrimp messing with my sailfin blenny. I was not to happy about this. the Blenny seemed like he couldn't even really move till i stuck a net in the to scare the shrimp. Is this usual?

I am in the process of purchasing the plumbing parts for my sump. Should I use PVC of vinyl? Overflow is a Eshopps PF1000 with 2 1" bulkheads. Return pump is Mag950. haha meant PVC not PVS in the thread title :)

Looking over some tanks of the month on reef central I came across this. Im interested in this, considering it look quite astonishing lol.

I have a question, and maybe this is just going right over my head or something I do not know. How do people get their snails and hermits into their tanks? I didn't know if people just picked them up by their shells or what. Along with emerald crabs and peppermint/banded shrimps.

Well it is all slowly falling together. I am kinda disappointed that I don't have a bigger stand for a sump. I don't know where to begin on ordering a custom one to fit in this stand. Might have to build a stand beside the tank or something not to sure. Equipment: 55 Gallon stand (oak) 55...

Aye so many questions I have asked. I am looking at clean up crews from Liveaquariua.com. Saltwater Aquarium Inverts for Marine Reef Aquariums: Caribbean Reef Diversity Pack That setup actually, I like the emerald crabs especially. Everything just adds a little more in my opinion :) Anyways...

I have a 65G coralife skimmer(rated at 325gph (im sure only if flow is directly open)), koralia 1 (400gph), Hydor L40 (725gph, @4ft head I would assume around 300-500gph). Question is should I add in another koralia? Was looking at the 2 and or 3 if so. I know the recommended turnover for tanks...

I am seeing using a glass canopy is best to reduce evaporation, and to seperate the lighting from water when you have a light fixture above a tank. I'm not sure if its required, because I red that on a fish shop website. The issue is if I have to use a glass canopy I am unable to fit my protein...

Eventually when setting up my tank I was going to just buy a kit for $180; this was until I decided I will want to corals eventually. I am going to buy the tank and top separately; and am looking for a rather decent price for T5 fixtures. I do believe Halides are probably going a little...

Ok so my question actually is how big of a pump would I need (as in gph). I want to buy a 50 gal trash can or something along those lines and use a pump to pump it up to my room through a hose. (25' meant for a gravel vacuum). My room is on the second floor of the house; hose would go almost...

Currently i would like to have a Picasso trigger in my tank; however from the sounds of it my tank would end up being to small for a trigger. Is the recommended tank size because of how much room they like to move around in? Or is it because they are territorial and aggressive? They really...

Hello everyone, as you can see I am new here and I am liking the advice everyone has been giving. I started off with a 15 gallon freshwater tank, and little to know at the time of me starting it of course like many others; I did not know about the cycling process. Of course the LFS didnt tell me...
