    What is my toad stool doing?

    Any ideas what the webbing stuff is coming off. I got it yesterday and it did it last night and now again tonight. Is he mad? Also, will there be tentacles come out of each long polyp or is that as far as it will reach? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

    Any idea? Small starfish?

    The gray spot in the center. It's very small. I saw it one day, scraped it off the rock, now I see another one. This one has only moved about an inch in a day. Any ideas? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

    What is the "junk"

    So is this diatoms? (Probably not I know) or cyano? I had battled some cyano that was on sand bed surface and on rocks and beat it. I thought this was diatoms but its not going away. There is also green in there. Bright neon green. Tank is 8 months old.

    My family is planning a vacation. I want to go somewhere with an awesome aquarium. Has anyone ever been to the Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta and/or Shedd Aquarium in Chicago?

    Any ideas what these are?

    Two things in my tank I need identifies. The first one is like a web or white tissue thing. It is underneath a rock in a cave. Can't get a very clear pic. Second is some hairy stuff growing off a hard algae? The red stuff has been there since the beginning but the hairy stuff is recent.

    Midas blenny in 29 gallon?

    Here is a new pic. I went ahead and put him in my display. He was not happy in the QT. I know I took a gamble but put him in display anyways. What a difference it made. He is happy and swimming now. He has been harassing my six line but not not clown (which is the smaller of the two fish). It...

    Midas blenny in 29 gallon?

    Here is a pic of the fellow. I have discovered the first couple of days of having a new fish isn't very glamourous. As far as I know, he stays by the filter intake tube, upside down, all day. He does go down to the bottom after lights are off. I have PVC pipe for him to hide but it may be too...

    Six line swimming funny

    After searching on web, I think I found out that his behavior is somewhat common. He was seeing his reflection and acting tough. He started to kick at the sand, flip real fast and twist around, and flare his fins. I saw several videos on youtube of other six lines exhibiting the same behavior...

    Six line swimming funny

    I have a six line that I had in a QT tank for four weeks, he was acting fine so I added him to my display tank Sunday. He and my clown have been great tank mates. Today I notice the six line swimming then he will stop swimming and kind of fall over on his side, straighten himself up and swim on...

    Midas blenny in 29 gallon?

    Thanks for the replies. I actually picked one up yesterday and added him to my QT for a couple of weeks. He is not the prettiest color now but have read that is normal and to be expected.

    Midas blenny in 29 gallon?

    I'm thinking of adding A Midas blenny to my 29 gallon. I have a clown and six line already. Would he be okay? I would also like to add a royal gramma possibly? Too much?
