Greetings all!! How long do Green Chromis live for? I have had one for about a year now and he is starting to act real odd. He is swimming vertical and not eating when the other in the tank are fed (Gramma, Clown) He is the oldest fish in my tank ... he has lasted longer than I thought he...

Dang LFS is selling Juv regal tangs for $49 and full grown ones for $89 I bet then are selling them as "Mini" tangs Some guy will buy them for their 30 gal tank and once it grows up he will wonder why his ammonia is high Sometimes the LFS can be greedy Thus ends my lfs rant

I have 13 mixed species hermit in my tank and at feeding time they all come scrambling out and head to the flow dead spot (Front corner) of the tank. It is really funny to watch, it looks like they are trying to climb the glass. I guess they are waiting for any food to sink. Look like a herd...

Just wondering if anyone has had Turbo Snails reproduce in their tank? Also how do i introduce more algae into the system for them to eat? It seems they are spending more time resting than eating or moving.. think they cleaned everything up already :)

Does anyone know where to get custom cut Acrylic sheets like those used for Acrylic aquariums? I was going to try my hand at building a custom fuge and remove my hob stuff from sight. Thanks in advance, Raker333

LFS has a flower anemone. ($9) it is a good 3" across Which from what I have read is full grown for tank specimen. Does anyone have one of these? Not looking at getting it but when I am ready to go the anemone route you cant beat $9 (Unless they are tank killers hehe) Any info would be great...

My local LFS got in some baby Regal tangs (That is what they had them marked as) They were selling them for $24 each (Seemed like a deal) I know my tank is to small for a full size regal, yet when I asked the LFS guy what size tank do they need he asked me "What size tank do you have?" I told...

I just got 3 of them. Is that to much or not enough? They are medium size and very active so far

Came home to hermit crabs munching on the remains of one of my Green chromis. For the last 3 days, the larger (Not by much) chromis has been forcing the smaller one into the corner of the tank. I was wondering if the small one died of stress? When we first got these they both were swimming...

I have 2 green chromis that I just got yesterday and one of them has a dngling chunk of feces on it... it didnt have it yesterday when I got it It is orangeish in color and has not fallen off yet. It is about 5 mm long

It seems i have some very small critters on the glass of my tank. I didnt notice them until I put 2 green chromis in the tank. The critters look like specs on the glass but if you watch close they move around and some are bigger than others. Are these Pods?

Just spent $11 on 2 green chromis (juv) Just seeing if anyone has anything bad or good to say about them I got them because they are not really shy fish and are pretty tank friendly. These are the first fish in the tank. downsized cleaning crew have been in there for a week or 2

Tank has been up and running (Short of some temperture issue) for about 5 weeks Should be seeing any signs of algae this soon ? Only thing in the 29 gal is hermits now (5 visible and 1 hidden or dead) Just wondering hehehe

It seems my emerald crab has decided to take a big sleep. I dont think he fully recovered from the heat spike I had a few days ago. Temp got up to 85 Hermits still doing ok though Has anyone lost any livestock to heat?

Anyone have/heard of one? Looking to add more current to tank but do not need extra heat
