Guys I am really getting wierded out by this tang like I said he is "picking" not full fledged pigging out like the rest of my tangs. But he is obsessed with the snails shell's he picks at them way more than any food. It's just wierd.

Thanks guys I did the rock trick today and he did eat off that I also saw him eat some flake as well. Not a pig like my other tangs but I think he just needs some time. Thanks for your input

Thanks hank that's what I did still haven't witnessed him eating alot but he is at least picking at the clips now.

Yes I have hank I have flake food infused with garlic, multiple different frozen foods and all colors of nori

Hi all I bought a 4-5" naso yesterday really fat and healthy looking. I have yet to see him show any interest in any food I throw at him. What he has shown an interest in are my snails he's not over aggressive but his is going around nipping at shells. Any ideas on what I should do to get...

Don't do it! I used to always think "oh yeah it will fill slow enough I will be all right" no way 3-4 flooded laundry rooms later I only fill while I can monitor it :)

Thanks man, I have been on their site talking with an agent. Do you know if they have a phone number I cant find one.

Nobody?

Hi guys has anyone on here owned this skimmer? My pump is just ridiculously noisy. the skimmer and pump are clean as a whistle. If i have the pump separated from the body it's fine but as soon as I connect it the noise is there again also if I cover the "silencer" holes it's fine as well. Any...

Also thanks for all the great advice everyone :)

Maybe that's my problem at what percent should I start my lighting?

They didn't get cold I have a small heater I put in the bucket with them. Temp held fine

Yeah they came in around lunch so I set them up in my acclimation bucket and let them slow drip until 5 when I came home. I got some riddler and spiderman zoas, pipe organ polyps, pulsing zenia and a monti cap. Just concerned nobody is really opening up yet

I just received my first corals from buying online today. I did a 4 hour drip acclimation and now have all frags on the sandbed. Question is how long do these guys take to open up? Their all closed up pretty tight still.

Try again just deleted a bunch

I have a 24" & 30" coralife HO quad bulb T5 fixtures with led moonlights. Both have 2 each 10K and actinic bulbs. The 30 has maybe 8 months of use on the bulbs and the 24 has 4 months of use. I still have the box for the 24 both work fine. You can message me if interested. Selling because I went...

Also what about the plastic decor would that be ok?

Yes that's what doug (mr_x) recommend he said it's less stressful on the fish unfortunately yet again I'm not prepared all I have is a hydrometer and was told I need a refractometer. I think I can get a test kit for copper test around town somewhere hopefully.

Carey all I have is coppersafe and no lfs to get cupramine and like stated above I don't think I have time to order stuff in this whole thing has really caught me offguard

Thank you melosu58 I have seen that post on other threads and read them all. Kicking myself in the you know what right now :) for not taking steps to prevent this

Thanks Carey I do have some plastic logs rocks and such in a cupboard from a FW tank I tore down could I use those in there? On a brighter note my hippo tang appeared out of nowhere I thought he was dead but he's covered in ich. Also at what level do I want the copper in the tank? Or just...

Carey I'm not worried about the rock I have plenty, I would like the fish to be as least stressed as possible. The fish are 2 small oc clowns, a goby (can't remember the name) a dottyback and a damsel

Before I begin I have scoured the forums and read as many threads on this as possible. Back to the problem I have had an outbreak of ick taking my powder brown, yellow and hippo tangs. I need to setup an emergency qt tank to treat the rest of my fish. I have a 20g with hob filter and a heater...

+1 on all above posts. Your tank is far too young for a nem and speaking from experience if your mandarin is not eating prepared food he will die a slow death. And way too many fish to add all at once, watch out for a crash and good luck

Will there be any better way to post pictures to the site and app any time soon?
