    Yellow tang sick

    My yellow tang is sick! He swims with his snout towards the bottom of the tank and he is trying to hide in caves and under rocks. His color is a healthy bright yellow. I have seen him stressed before and he gets really pale. He is a good color now. I just noticed this today. I changed my...

    Clownfish choices?

    I had bad luck with a Sebae and Perc Clown. My Tomato clown was the answer for me. The key is just to be sure that you will be happy with the clown long term.

    I just went to the GA Aquarium ...

    I have a florescent tube light. It is week but the corals are at the top of the tank and they do ok. They have grown more in the 55 gal at home. It has a brighter florescent.

    I just went to the GA Aquarium ...

    Albany, Georgia has a river aquarium. I know that is way south Georgia, but it may be west of you. Have you ever been to the one in Charleston SC?

    Helping starfish heal

    I bought a Red/Orange Linkia star from an LFS Wednesday. It is about 1.5 inches around so it cant be very old. When I got it it was already missing most of one ray or leg. The guy at the store told me they regenerate. What can I do to help it? Some people have said give it a clean cut to prevent...

    how to make live rock more alive

    Time is the biggest thing. Add some good live rock and let it grow. There are additives like Coral-Vit that will speed it up.

    Submersible lights

    I have seen "submersible flourescent lights" on several websites. They come in Blue, green, red, etc. I guess they go down in the sand/ cc. http://cgi.ebay.com/New-Odyssea-Aquarium-Submersible-T5-Light-13-Blue_W0QQitemZ7725769092QQcategoryZ46314QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem I think it...

    Ok, BIG thread.

    Certain fish are "reef safe" certain fish aren't. Most tangs and clowns are great for reef tanks. Triggers are very popular fish, but most of them do not work well in reef set ups. Even some crabs are reef safe and some aren't. Here is a link to a good compatabillity chart...

    Ok, BIG thread.

    Depending on where you get your live rock, it my come with some small sponges, baby anenomes, tube worms (good and bad), and some times a coral polyp or two. Most of the time coral is bought seperately and can be quite expensive. For cycling, I recommended the Damsel cycling because that is...

    Ok, BIG thread.

    So why is cycling your tank bad advice? I know I am new here, but my fish are doing fine. Please tell me what you think I am doing wrong. I don't want to argue, but my fish seem to think I am doing a good job and I am wondering what specifically DragonForce means.

    Ok, BIG thread.

    As far as fresh water goes, I bought a 10 gal. tank with filter and light hoof from Walmart for about $30 2 years ago. I think this is probably the way to go to be sure you want to keep it up. Though not as colorful, there are still some really cool things to do with freshwater fish. If you go...

    Good First Fish

    A yellow tang was my third fish that I added. 2 Damsels and then the tang. I paid 19.99 for mine. He is about 3 inches. He has done fine and he is the star of my tank. I had trouble adding a fourth fish (royal gramma, perc. clown and firefish all died.) My Tomato clown has done fine though...
