    Clownfish fight!

    fyi, clowns are hermaphrodites; therefore, if you have a pair one will be female and other male.

    there is a medication that petco carries but not required. if ur lights are on 24/7 that is cause of growth among other reasons. minimize light use and have cleaner crew

    Help asap!! Is this ick??

    you can buy ich attack which is reef/coral safe. does ur damsel have other symptoms and/or are your other fish still eating, breathing hard. make sure you monitor closely cuz if ich attack is not curing within 2-3 days then it may be a deadlier disease. that will require a quarantine tank and...

    NOT good news for my CLOWNS

    if u do not hv invert, live sand/rock then ur mt can be medicated; however, if u do hv such i recommend qt. i jus bought a 1.5g led w/filter at walmart $19.99. walmart also has 10g starter for $24.99 w/hood & filter - great value. quick cure is a good medication but does not guarantee ur fish...
