    Cleaner Shrimp problems???????

    I don't think it's aggression. I think he's trying to bag the dog, if you know what I mean. These creatures are usually very predicitable and if it's something more, we all know what godzilla is going to do.

    Porcelain crab (purple)

    yes, I had had one survive for more than five years previously, 1991-1999, but in this instant, it wasn't the case. Please don't start on the water parameters.. just sometimes it happens as with all living creatures in a glass cell, and I'm talking about the anemone. Obviously, I'm not looking...

    Which Tank and Why???

    I vote... questionable. 14" is very shallow. I have an 18 inch tank and my tang won't leave the bottom in which he has plenty of rock caverns and swimming room but freaks when he get 8 inches from the top of the water. I think that depth will severly limit what fish you are able to comfortably...

    Free Package to the 100th post

    Maybe we could start a conversation like what's the biggest waste of money you've made and the best investment you've made. Maybe the contest will go quicker. I'll start.

    Live rock turning white

    Might I suggest the the turbos have cleaned off algae that has been on the rock and, in those places, the coralline algae has been covered by a pest algae that has denied it light. I believe that time and light will allow coralline to regenerate in those areas.
