Hello, like many unfortunate people I lost everything in my tank during Sandy. I am looking into buying a generator for my house (for emergencies). I don't anticipate another Sandy but power out for few days in the freezer weather is very realistic. When I am checking for wattage, I am clueless...

Hi, I was finally done with adding all my fish in my tank when my Hippo Tang just disappeared after 5 days. I can not even find a carcass. In the past if the fish or a snail died, I saw my little crabs working at it for a day. But this is a fairly decent size fish to completely vanish. Not only...

Hi, I am setting up my new 54 gal corner tank and moving stuff from 35 gal hex. I added 30 gallons of water w /ideal 1.023 salinity. Added new crushed coral/sand and few pounds from original. I have some new rocks and some old rocks from the original tank. I am thinking of taking the rocks out...

Hi, it's been a year since i upgraded my 16gal to 35 gal hex. Finally, I got approval from the other half that I'm allowed to upgrade to something bigger. I am kind of bound by the size - as I only have one perfect corner that separates my Dining and Living rooms - so I settled on 54 gallon...

Hello, first of all thank you to all who helped me navigate through my set up several months ago. My 35 gal hex is doing great (just one casualty). I do have a major concern on what to feed my fish. So far I have (all juvies - 1.5-2in) - tomato clown - dragon wrasse - hippo tang - royal...

Hi, please, help out with feeding question. I have 1 clown, 1 draggon wrasse (both about 2in), 2 turbo snails and 5 small snails. I feed them flakes one day, shrimp another (1/3 cube) - IS THAT ENOUGH? I read some info on fish and it states - feed 2-3 times a day - not sure if I should quit my...

Have 2 fish now 1 tomato clown 1 dragon wrasse (juvi 2 in) - will get rid when he gets bigger 2 turbo snails, 5 little snails can I get any dwarf angel?

It was time to add the first fish to my 35 gal hex. That day my friend offered me his tomato clown (about 2 inches). I took it as I read it's a hardy fish and it was free. Now after my dragon wrasse (2nd I introduced) is completely gone - not a trace - I read that tomato clowns are the worse...

Go into a store last night to buy an addition to my tank (now have only a tomato clown given to me as a gift). I was looking for a blenny or goby (as advised on this forum). My LFS convinces me to take a gorgeous fish called Dragon Wrasse which is perfect for 35gal hex - hey what do I know. The...

I am getting completely contradictory info when put notes together from the forums and LFS advises as well as general internet info. A month ago I started a new fish only tank (35 gal hex, Fluval 205) - used water and biowheel filter from old tank. I had a Tomato Clown put in a week ago (who's...

I need some suggestions about what I can add to my 35 gallon hex tank. I currently have a tomato clown, 1 hermit crab and 5 little snails. I read the forums and all I hear are same names - angelfish, blenny, gobi, wrasse. Obviously besides those that don't belong in mine like lionfish or tangs...

Hi, yesterday my friend had to get rid of his clowns as he's buying other/bigger fish so I took a tomato clown. My first fish in a new tank. I had my 35 hex running for a month with Fluval 205 and Penguin Biowheel (from old tank) running side by side for 3 weeks. I used old sand as well with...

Got my 35 hex tank up and running for several weeks already. Transfered sand from original tank and had biofilter running alongside with my Fluval. My snails and crab are in there alive and kicking for past 5 days. My LFS checked the water and said that in a week or so I can add fish. I want...

Hi, can someone pls help out? I had an unfortunate situation with my clowns in my 16 gallon (due to my own fault). I want to get a bigger tank - at least double but looking for 40. Can you please advise if I should start from scratch OR if I could use some of my water or my biofilter to speed up...
