    When I got back from the library (11:45) I found my skunk cleaner on the front of my power head. It looked like it was sucking him in almost but he was not resisting or trying to move. I picked him up and he hardly moved, so i dropped him to see if he would move and he just floated downward...

    Shrimp Cleaning Goby's

    My skunk cleaner is cleaning my Yellow Watchman Goby, including inside his mouth. Im guessing this isn't very common, has anyone ever seen this before? It went on for about 5 minutes. The goby normally strays from His tank mates (he has paired with my pistol shrimp) but willingly allowed this.

    Moving an Anemone

    I have a Maxi Mini Anemone who since introduced to my system has been comfortable one particular rock. Every time I touch or get close to him he retracts into the rock and it makes me nervous to try to move him by force (I do not want to hurt him). Does anyone know of a way I can get him to...

    Memoirs of Pistol Pete

    So my first clownfish I ever picked out, the one for which my username, PistolPete, is named after jumped out of my tank and died yesterday morning. I am pretty sad to part with this fish. I thought he was hiding and possibly injured until my sister told me she found him dead on the floor. This...

    How much algae is too much?

    I have a decent amount of algae on my rock and I have pulled it off or anything because I didn't see the point. What kind of algae do you think this is? Is it good or bad? And should I pull it off? Thanks everyone.

    Leopard Toby Puffer

    Leopard Toby Puffer- Can I keep it with my coral. Live aquaria says with caution. I am afraid it will end up being a coral nipper. What do you think?

    New Coral

    3 snails have died in the past week

    Three of my four snails have died in just over a week. Im not sure where the last one is but I am afraid he too is dead. I just put my light on yesterday, but I am worried it is my parameters. Could it have been lack of food for 4 snails in a 29g with no algae growth? Or do you think it might be...

    The Start of my Reef Tank

    Tomorrow I am going to my "not so" local fish store (one hour commute) to get lighting for my tank. I want to be able to keep coral, and hopefully I can get some tomorrow as well. I want a light that will let me keep whatever I want. What do you recommend if I want the most "bang for my buck"...

    Clown fish "pimple" help

    Alright I'm going to try to answer the questions to the best of my ability. I don't have all the equipment to test my water, because my LFS normally will for me and I am still new to this hobby. 1. How long have you had the fish? I have had the fish for a month now. It is a Percula Clown. Tank...
