i agree, just watch your perameters, esp.ammonia, not just ph, due to the fact that i had a choco. chip star fish which died from high ammonia, now that i have all of my peram. in control, my red serpent star fish is doing great. all invertebrates are very sensitive to water conditions.

i have also two of the same and they get along just fine. clown fish are not agressive fish unless they are with their own kind. as for puffers, you know they don't mess with anything unless there is a starfish or shrimp, due to them loving to munching on invertebrates and crusteceans. so, i...

there are a lot of websites you can order from that looks enticing, but in reality sucks, so just be careful on what you order, such as live rock, because they will get you on shipping fees big time, they weigh the package and decide on the cost. also, as for fish, you never know if the fish are...

it is a very happy fish!!! all tangs have the personality of a hiper "laborador retriever"dog, my yellow tang does the same thing.

help me! all of my fish are dying one by one with in the last 6 mo. i have lost about 8 fish, even a hearty panther grouper(which i thought could last thru anything.) it starts with pale coloring of the fish, then it leads to constant rubbing on everything, to not eating and then ending with...

did you check yor perameters? it sounds like high ammonia levels, angels are very sensitive to stuff like that, i had a flame back angel that whimped out on me due to high ammonia or even stress like conditins can make a sensitive fish do that.

doesn't uneaten food (such as brine) make the ammonia go up? - ca62296
