One of my clowns, swims on his side at the top of the tank at some point during the night and then when the lights go on, he swims normally. First time I caught him I thought he was dying from getting roughed up by my other clown, so I isolated the "criminal" . A few nights later, I woke up...

Still selling. Any takers?

I apologize, local to the NYC area only. I don't have any experience shipping live animals and would be afraid to make a mistake. Sorry!

FTS? Not familiar with this abbrev. what does it mean?

Bought a pair of clownies, but one has gotten very aggressive and will not let the other swim or eat. It's very pretty and healthy. Will sell or trade.

Thanks, its just something I bought at the LFS, not real.

He hides at night under a rock, but as soon as the lights are on and I start feeding he jumps out and runs after food. He is actually (I am assuming its a he) a skunk cleaner shrimp.

Not locking mouths, but she wont let her eat or swim, had to confine her again so the other could get a moments peace. Thinking of taking one back (sigh) they are really pretty.

New cleaner shrimp since Sat. Also 3 turbos. I read that cleaner shrimp are hard to keep, so far so good. Say hello to my little friend.

Thanks, they are fun to watch.

The aggressive one is smaller than the docile one. I had to separate them, she/he wouldn't let she/he eat. It was so furious, but has calmed down. I hope it sticks. I read, that rearranging the LR might help.

First week, my clownies played together and swam together peacefully. Today, the smaller one, started attacking the larger, and now has it confined to a section of rock. Whenever the prisoner tries to venture out, it gets attacked viciously, I thought they were matched. What's going on?

It's growing on my LR. Thanks

Thanks. They are so lively. One likes to swim in PH current and then lets go and glides with the flow. It's so funny to see. They already staked out their territory, one has claimed a cave. Too cute:)

My tank finally cycled. Bought these two today, they were paired already.

Lol, I was thinking about that. I'm grossed out and excited at the same time. I would never touch it, yeesh. It's prob, just die-off. Gonna turn off the lights, stay tuned :)

Been watching it, first I thought it was stuff coming off the rock and moving with the current of the PH. Here is a pic.

Thanks. I lowered the temp today, as I was running it high for bio. I think I just spotted my first hitch hiker! Something is extending a tentacle looking thing from under a crevice. Lol, I'm fascinated.

My tank is 3 weeks old and I finally have nitrates, here are my numbers: Ammonia .50 Nitrite 1.0 Nitrate 10.0 Ph 8.2 Salinity 1.027 Nothing in tank but live rock and sand. I have been adding fish food every day. What are my next steps? Thanks.

Hmmm, I was thinking about something branchy to fill the empty vertical space, didnt know about tonga, more research to do...thanks :)

Actually 6 pounds, I really need 10 more pounds, can I mix rock from somewhere else? I think I can get a better price.

Done, finally!! Very raw pics, I'm memorized already :). Next, cycling.....

Just returned from my shopping trip with supplies in hand plus soooo every expensive live rock. Went down to Pacific Aquariums, awesome place. They had 2 batfish what beauties and a tank full of seahorses, all manner of sea life, invert, fresh, salt, etc. If anyone lives in NYC area, they...

FOWLR, I need to learn more for corals. Someday, perhaps.

After careful research and much thought, I purchased a 16gal bow front glass tank as my starter SW build (picture attached). Here is what I purchased so far: Canister filter hanging outside Ocean water (20 gal) Sand (real) 40 pounds Submersible heater Digital thermometer Gravel 10 pounds (...
