    Is Furan-2 safe for mushroom corals ?

    Now now no need to be snarky lol. I haven't found anything online that says it'll have a negative effect so you should be good to go. I'd suggest maybe photographing the corals before the treatment so you have a comparison to check for any issues. Good luck! Sent from my iPhone using...

    Misbar maroon clown question

    From what I've read the fish keep the coloration as it's a genetic defect so to speak. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

    Feather duster help

    I bought a Caribbean feather duster yesterday and placed it in the tank. The guy at the lfs told me to slightly cover it's tube with sand and that'll be that. I checked the tank this morning and the worm seems to have left the tube and moved to an area of higher flow. From what I've read...

    Or maybe the fact the tank is 9 days old and will be going through the start of a cycle? You have to do a Partial Water Change to keep that ammonia as low as possible. If it's currently at 1ppm a 50% change will not drop it into the "safe" limits. 2 50% changes over the corse of a few hours...

    Need a cleaner upper

    Great recommendation! And yes, the Eupterus is also the featherfin or featherfin squeaker in some stores!

    This is my syno Eupterus. Pretty awesome fish.

    Washable? Wouldn't that be an issue with splashing? Nice to see a fellow Brit. More so one who is fairly local!

    Need a cleaner upper

    If your stock is low, why are you feeding so much? You'd be better off looking for a fish that you truly want, not what you think you need. I had this problem a while back and wasted some good money on a fish I really didn't need.

    best black background

    I just don't feel comfortable painting a tank that cost me over £1000 to assemble lol. Black paper that has been laminated is my go-to backing. It's quite cheap and can be made at home easily.

    Or try feeding less? Buying a fish to solve a problem you create is quite foolish. They fish would depend on you over feeding the tank in order to thrive.

    synodontis eupterus eat other fish?

    Well that's not entirely true but it's a good rule of thumb.

    synodontis eupterus eat other fish?

    I doubt it was a Eupterus, they aren't well known for reaching over 12 inches..

    synodontis eupterus eat other fish?

    It would be hard for them to eat anything bigger than a shrimp with their small mouths.

    Can someone tell me what size tank I have.

    If it's made by Hagen why not just google Hagen and look at their small tanks?

    Moral question about fish keeping?

    Why would you even purchase fish that would outgrow your tank if you didn't plan on upgrading? I bought a synodotis euruptus knowing he would need a bigger tank once my 29 gal became too small. He's now in a 50 gal while I'm searching for a 100 gal tank for him to stretch his fins out. Poor...

    Cycle done, finally stocked!

    Otos generally need an established tank as they need an ample food supply in order to survive, some people may even say that a 20gal won't be large enough to grow enough food for em. Just look out for pinched stomachs and try to give em some algae wafers :) Tank looks awesome btw!

    HELP!!! White spot!!!

    Don't be so daft. That's an absurd statement.

    Finally...CYCLED!!!

    Sorry be a party pooper but you may wanna perform a water change to get those nitrates down...

    slab of frozen bloodworms

    You must have an extremely good thermo if it can accurate judge a rise in tank temp based off of feeding actions lol. My temp fluctuates 0.1 - 0.8°c constantly.

    slab of frozen bloodworms

    Thaw it in a cup of tank water, then you can either pour the cup back in, or use a pipette to target feed :)

    Anyone in UK?

    Liverpool here. Maidenhead aquatics near me is abysmal.

    What's on this live rock?

    You should never add an animal to battle an issue that can be remedied by your action or if it can be waited out. Once it's gone you're still gonna have the snails but with nothing to feed them with.

    Diy sump.

    Yea I do water changes every Friday. I was thinking of using a sump to add more filtration into my system and possibly remove nitrates too?
