    Can pistol shrimps rip apart shells?

    So I have found another shell that has been ripped in half. Could a pistol do this? Maybe this could also be the reason my skunk cleaner is no more? I really dont think I have a mantis.

    What is a good starfish to have?

    What is a nice star fish that is reef compatible? I had a orange linkia one that didnt last long (think it could have been water quality though). I really liked the way it looked and like the blue ones. I know chocolate chips are not good to have with corals. So what are some other exotic...

    How do you all clean the sumps if they are on the floor?

    I have a layer of stuff ?ditrus? that has collected on the floor of my sump. Whenever I add water it stirs it all up and messed up the water column. How can I get this stuff out of the tank? Im thinking of making a stand for the sump to sit on so I can suction it out later on down the road...

    What is this stuff? White powdery looking stuff on glass

    They are not pods or the like. The only thing I can think of is some type of algae. It some off very easily and almost looks like a powder or like white dust in the tank. When the snails go over it they just devour it. Looks tacky though having spots of this stuff. Here is a pic, sorry its...

    My SEAclone in action? Good or bad...

    So I have never had a skimmer. I bought this one for practically nothing so even though people bashed it i figured id give it a shot. IMO crappy skimmer>no skimmer. So after one night this is what the collection cup looks like. Looks like it is doing something. Only mod I have done to the...

    I think I might know the culprit, or not?

    Ok last two night I keep hearing this clicking sound. I just got a pistol 2 nights ago. I have not heard this clicking before him, so is it the pistol making the noise, or do I have a mantis? If it is a mantis, it might be the reason why I cant seem to keep a goby in the tank for the life of...

    Any of you all have fish that eat out of your hand?

    I have a clown that use to be very afraid when I would walk by the tank. He now eats out of my hand. Infact he usually wont eat unless I hand feed it to him, its really weird to me (found out about eating out of the hand becuase I had to get my cyclopeeze flakes wet so they would sink into the...
