Thanks CamptainAhab and Kurtyboh! Yeah your right, they are gonna grow and anymore will be too big for the tank. Could i get a bottom feeder like a spotted yellow goby, looks so cool the way they clean the sand! ha How long do you think i should wait till i can add coral? I'd like to add a...

Ammonia 0, nitrite 0, nitrate 5ppm, specific gravity 1.023, temp 78 Tank is cycled, rock was already fully cured. Clowns are healthy and eating. In a 10 gallon I can have 2 small/medium clowns and 2 other small fish.

I agree with cmor, sorry I forgot to say that a 90% WC is only in a drastic case when all else isn't working. Try 50% first.

They were not acclimating well and wernt eating. So the guy at my Lfs (very good store rated best in my area via multiple sites and reviews) told me to keep the lights out for 4 days to calm them. Now they are doing very well, good color, eating and swimming well. Thanks for all the help and...

I would go ahead and do a 90% water change. And then after a couple hrs re-test your water for nitrate,nitrite, ammonia, ph, salinity, temp. Preferably from a good Lfs or with a good kit to ensure accuracy. If anything is weird with any of your fish, then do a freshwater dip with banking soda...

I acclimated them for an hour with the drip method after another water change that night so the sand had settled. I had sand from an established 12 gallon nano and 4lbs of completely cured live rock from another reef tank. The clowns are doing well. Got the water tested today and 0 ammonia 0...

ok thanks for all the help. Im about to add them to the tank. I call the guy tomorrow and depending on how my fish are doing return them or not. And will keep up with the water changes you suggested to avoid ammonia spikes.

Ok thank you Tomchong22! Should i return the fish in the morning still?

I just set up a new 10 gal nano FOWLR rank. I have 4 lbs of cured Fiji rock and 50/50 8lbs of live sand and new aquarium sand. The water is still pretty cloudy after adding the water. I have had the 2 clownfish in the bag since 6:30pm. It is now 10pm!! I opened the bag up for oxygen. They...

yeah the water was premixed. Thing is i cant even run my mechanical filter, i tried it an hour ago and it clogged. Hmmm i think ill put them in the tank though, i dont see them making it in the bag either. Btw anyone know the signs of stressed ocellaris clownfish? thanks!

is the sand going to be a problem for them?! Should i put them in the tank which is getting better by the minute, or keep them in the bag? thank you!!!

yes set it up tonight. I was really skeptical. But the guy told me that with cured live rock and sand from an existing 12 gal nano reef tank that the cycle will be minimized and that i could safely add two clowns.

I'm looking to start a nano 10 gallon FOWLR aquarium with eventually 2 Ocellaris Clownfish and 1 saddleback clownfish. I went to my local SW fish shop an he said he could hook me up with the following to get my tank started and so that i dont have to cycle it. 5-7 lbs of live rock $6/lb...

Thank you for the advice silver rose, i will probably end up taking them back if they dont stop bothering my cory. Otherwise maybe ill sell my black skirt. Update: I removed the black skirt and but him in a bowl (using the water from the main tank), with a little food and an air stone. I think...

Hello, and this is my first post here. Been using this forum for help with cycling and other questions i had and I'm thrilled to join! However I'm sad to have to post this. I have a 20 gal tank with: 1 peppered cory (getting more when i can asap) 3 neon tetras 6 small tiger barbs (probably...
