    What should I stock my 1.5 gal with?

    Hermits, snails, asterina & goby/pistol shrimp in our 2 gal. We also have a black clown. They all live happy and healthy in our tank, though there have been some here who have thought the mix was a bad idea. Our saltwater store owner watches all of his fish behaviors and suggested the mix we...

    Sea Cucumber

    I know it's toxic for the other tank mates if a cuke dies, but are their signs of a small sick cuke? Is their a point where you would take them out and spare the others?

    We have a good relationship with our saltwater dealer. He suggested the mix of fish. The clown was chosen because it is small and wasn't thriving in the store (not sick,.. Just not getting on well with others). He is doing so well in our tank. He is small, and when he outgrows the tank the...

    About as small as they come. It's a 2.5 gallon fluval spec. My daughter asked for a saltwater tank from Santa this year... I want a big tank but am holding out until our basement is finished. Our saltwater dealer had a fluval spec on his counter at the store. It really is thriving and very...

    He's pretty tiny! Very easy to miss! But a fun splash of color to the tank! He's maybe 1/4 of an inch long!

    Coral or plant?

    Our fish guy three in this little piece of rock with this guy on it (to the left of the snail and above the cucumber). Can anyone tell me what it is?

    Went to our fish guy tonight to get some SW for weekly water change and picked up this little guy! He's a fun bright spot in the tank! As for my question... What temp does everyone keep their tank at?

    Snail

    Noticed this in the filter.. But now I notice it in the shell of one of my snails. Is it feces? Or something else?

    Fluval SPEC No skimmer

    We have a great "fish guy" who will help us with rehoming "Chris the clown" should he outgrow his current situation before we grow our tank ;)

    Fluval SPEC No skimmer

    I have no intentions of staying with tiny... ;) it's so addictive! But.. With that said, we just built a house and I'm waiting to build a great space in the basement for a big tank! This starter tank is what my 8 year old asked Santa for for Christmas... And it's fantastic! We have decided...

    Fluval SPEC No skimmer

    We have a small tank ( 3 gallon ) with 2 fish, a shrimp and an array of crabs & snails & 2 lbs live rock. Our fish store keeps this same set up on their store counter. He suggests 1/3 water change every week. 2 weeks in we have a happy healthy tank, but I'm wondering if anyone else has other...

    Pistol Shrimp

    I have a pretty young tank with a black clown, a watchman goby, and pistol shrimp. (along with stars, snails and crabs) Tonight I noticed that my pistol shrimp molted already! Do I need to remove the shell? Or will the crab take care of it? Also, how often do they molt?

    Heater for 2.5gal Reef

    I bought a 25w on amazon. It keeps my tank at 73.8 on its lowest setting. Fluval sells a small flat heater intended for their 2g spec tank that works well too!

    Re-beginning

    Thanks! We actually have 7 small crabs, 2 tiny stars, and 4 snails with our black clown, yellow watchman & yellow pistol shrimp! It's an amazingly busy and beautiful little tank!
