Can I put tangs or triggers in a 4' 120gal tank? I keep reading you should have a 6' 125gal tank, but I was wondering if I could create a rock mountain in the middle of the tank so there would be room to swim all the way around the outsides of the tank. I don't want to put anything in an...

Did a water change last night, and doing again tonight. Temp is regulated with a cheap heater. The house is about 70 and my cheap lights don't really put off much heat. Just using 20K fluorescents in a cheap hood. On a bright note, the trigger fin appears to be magical. I watched it for 2...

sorry, should have been more clear. tank had fish in it when we purchased it, the 2 damsels came with the tank. we are buying water from our LFS at a sg of 1.023 because we have to purchase RO/DI water anyway and its consistent.

#1 The tank is over 4 years old. We just moved it to our house 6 weeks ago. We have only added 1 fish in that time. We have purchased 3 fish but have returned 2 very aggresive large damsels (so we are plus 1 net) #2 the LFS right down the road test for free whenever i take a sample. usually...

salinity was 1.020 - but now is 1.0223 nitrate and nitrite - the LFS guy just said high. I can post real #'s tomorrow morning...sorry that probably doesn't help...

I noticed that my Picasso is smacking the bottom of the tank with her side irratically and tonight our dragon goby did it a couple of times. The Picasso now is missing a side fin. What in the heck is going on? I have also noticed that my volitan lion fish is "fading" towards the back of his...

Are these a type of coral polyp??

He actually is a juvi. The damsel has been in the tank for two years. We figured since the tank was established the Huma wouldn't be so territorial at the start. We just didn't realize the damsel would kick his butt. I knew they were aggressive, we have a pretty aggressive tank anyway, but it...

We ended up taking the Damsel out last night, actually. We couldn't stand to watch the Huma get beat up on like that. All balance has been restored in the tank. Thanks for your advice!!

I need some quick advice. The LFS guy said our tank would be fine to add a Huma Huma to it however, our 4 stripe Damsel is nipping and pushing like you wouldn't believe. We just added the Trigger - 30 mins ago - will this stop should we take the Damsel out? Help! We don't want to lose the...

55 gallon

Water test and new addition Sorry for the delayed response - water test came back a little high in nitrate, but we corrected it. Last night we added a new fish to our tank and took one out. I wish someone would have told me sooner how destructive the Blue Velvet Damsels are! OMG! :confused: But...

Pictures!! They aren't the greatest but it's a start.

We are Jill and Josh and our first tank was put up this last Sat. It was an established tank from a friend - everything survived the move - 75 miles away!! We are so proud of ourselves, we even went and bought a starfish from our LFS that is doing great with his/her new house mates.:D
