    feeding anenomes

    Jim672 you may have thrown away a perfectly good anemone. Most will shrivel up , open their mouth and expell or rinse their stomachs releasing a milky mucas like substance. Ususally a day or so after feeding. My bubble tip does this regularly. I feed mine every two or three days a piece of fresh...

    HLLE

    It is Head and lateral line erosion. It mostly affects tangs and angels. It is the erosion of the head area in the pits or pores of the face and deterioration of the lateral line down the fishes sides. In my experience the main cause seems to be the lack of greens or proper nutrition. There are...

    flame angel in need of algae

    Try O.S.I. spirulina flake and Ocean nutrition frozen spirulina formula. Also soak you foods in Zoe a few times a week as zoe is heavy in spirulina.

    live rock

    Well, "high quality" and "cheap" in general do not go together. Not to mention S&H not being hefty. Anything ordered online is half shipping. Anyway if you want the best buy for the buck <a href="http://www.gul-view.com" target="_blank">www.gul-view.com</a>

    Ugh.. gross!

    It sounds like it is working fine. You should have nasty stuff in the COLLECTION CUP which is what happens after the foam pops Salty.

    Leather with SWEEPER TENTICLES????

    As far as I know leathers dont have sweepers because they dont sting. They use chemical warfare instead, they are one of the most toxic softies.The long strings seem to be slime, mine does it. I would say the death of your tang has nothing to do with the leather.

    ¡Help!

    You should be looking at something in the 1000gph range. The mag 500 will be way too underpowered for a 115, especially at 5 feet you will be lucky to get 250gph.

    Success with a Powder Blue

    I have had mine for a year and a half. They are easy once established but not everyone understands their needs of a large tank not overcrowded, clean water meaning 0 to 5 nitrates, a good variety of foods especially greens, QUARANTINE, and being able to pick a healthy specimen from the start. <a...

    Experiences With Powder Blues

    A 75 is too small in my opinion for a pbt. How much rock did you order from gulf view? Do not add any fish especially a powder blue until after your rock has cured. I hope you did not intend to put it directly in your tank with fish in it because you will have die off. A powder blue should only...

    PLEASE HELP Imperator Angel

    I agree with Salty. You are overstocked, what are your water readings? Dont take the emperor out and use peroxide it will stress him. If your water is clean meaning 0-5 ppm nitrate keep feeding him he should be ok if it is just a gash. Keep your water clean with water changes every few days till...

    Glass Tank Prices

    Consider spending the extra dough on an Oceanic. The quality is much higher. You can compare both at That Fish Place if you did not already.
