Awesome...thanks again to all!

Thanks everybody! It's good to get some real opinions. Most site reviews are sales advertisements and the LFSs seem to push their products and opinions. I look forward to hearing about the new eshopps skimmer when it runs in.

Thanks! I had gotten most of the stuff from a guy that took down his tank and I got it for a steal. If you have any suggestions for a skimmer, that would be cool too. The only other one I have is an eshopps hob for the 20 gal. It seems to be functioning well, if not a little finicky. The...

I have: -75gal tank -60gal home made acrylic sump -mag9 return pump -overflow box -aquaC urchin skimmer -100lbs live rock -at least 80lbs live sand -custom stand is being built I need lighting. I have been running...

Ok this is our first time dealing with a pregnant sea critter so we want to try and see if we can save and raise the fry, but we don't know the first step. Can anyone give me advice and how to do this?

I have blue hermits and a red hermit and our peppermint shrimp don't touch ours and we have some tiny ones. Are the shrimp getting enough to eat?

Yes I know harlequin shrimp eat starfish, if you look carefully in the picture you will see he is eating one. Apparently they wont eat bristle starfish. yeah they eat 4 feeder starfish a week,so i bout enough to last 3 weeks. So far I havn't had any problems with the sea horses. The female does...

hmmmm interesting. we are things of getting another tank a lot bigger so maybe thats what we will do.

You mean like one of those pictures you tape up behind the tank? I need some thing for the sea horses to cling to there is this live rock I want that looks like a tree branch I just need to find them. I just want some coloful plants that that can have some cohabitation with each other.

I told my husband that I want more color in the tank. and that's a problem im having. Right now we have a 20 gallon tank until we get a big one so we are testing this out before buying big one. I have 2 harlequin shrimp, 2 sea horses, a peppermint shrimp, 2britle stars and a goby. just need...

he's neat looking

Ok first question, Will an automatic fish feeder work for frozen mysis shrimp or is it just for dry food? I understand that the shrimp wont be frozen so that could be a problem. Any one tried or know someone who has? Second question, I want to buy some fake decorative plant's and things for my...

Yeah that's how I figured it out from looking at your link. Watching it eat something was neat. Thanks for the link btw. Do you know anything about harlequin shrimp identifying the sex I did a post, there are questions I need answered.

Apparently from what I read they take sand and cement it together on their tube pretty cool. Also good for the tank. On the link the first person wrote is where I find it if you want to see what it looks like out of the tube.

You can't exactly see it's arms since it is the same color as the mysis but not as white. But I have video's so I will try to upload that as well since you will be able to see it move.

They are the same size as the ones I posted earlier was the size ok? I took them on my phone.

I found out what the weird thing is living inside under the sand it's a 2 armed worm it also lives in a tube. I finally saw it when some mysis landed next to it and it's two clear whiteish arms grabbed it and too it to eat it. I took pics and video.

Any clue to anything that builds a tunnel with the live sand on the live rock?

Yes I do. Could they be the culprit? Also last night I looked at the rock that has the sand or shells building a tiny tunnel, and I saw a clear whitish like tentacle moving but it wasn't a spaghetti worm. Were you able to see the picture better or do I need to try taking it again?

That is cool. How big is your tank?

I just bought 2 harlequin shrimp and they sold them to me as a pair but I think I may have ended up with 2 males. One is a lot bigger than the other. If the small one is a female could it just be you can't tell yet? What are things I need to check for so I know if I need to exchange one. Also is...

The first picture has a small sand tunnel like some thing took one piece at a time to build it. Every morning when I wake up it gets longer and longer. And sorry I don't know how small the pictures are on your end but they are fine on the IPad. But it looks like pellets I don't know if it is...

I have one of these in my tanks as well I noticed it on the back hitchhiker snail I'm guessing a stomella. Then yesterday it died could that have killed it because it had a cracked shell which it didn't have a day prior.

Is that a live clam in the tank?

Ok well my husband and I just started this tank, and we have been noticing a couple weird things. In one of the pictures there is bits of live sand on the rock where it looks like something is building a tunnel or a nest like thing. Second I don't think it is fish poo but the one rock looks...
