I just purchased a black spiney urchin to take care of my algea problem and I noticed that my humu humu was biting away ate the spikes. Not too long a go I looked into my tank and saw that 1/2 of the urchin and all of its insides were done. What can I put in the tank that my humu humu won't...

my humu humu is pretty agressive for his size and he has eaten a lot of what has gone into my tank he just ate my black spiny urchin, but i find that although he fights a lot with my snoflake eel they work well together because the eel doesn't put up with the humu, he just steals what he's eating.

So I recently purchased a humu humu trigger and he had no problem getting used to my tank he killed and ate anything smaller than him which was everything so I decided to get away from the reef set-up and go towards the agressive set up. Today I purchased a snoflake eel and he's pretty good...

So I just got a new humu humu trigger fish in my tank and after about a day he's killed my clown and probably my firefish and alge blenny so basically it killed everything but my hermit crabs snails and brittle star. My question is what fish should I put in the tank that it won't attack and...

So all of a sudden I'm getting all of these red things that are coming from my live rock. They look like little tubes but as they get bigger they divide. For example: One branch splits and divides into 2 then that turns to four and the things keep getting larger. Now they are taking over my...

well, puffers are known to eaat shrimp, but if the shrimp is decently larger than the puffer than you should be alright for a little while...that is until the puffer grows.

yea I had one too, but it got into a fight w/ my yellow tang and died but he took the tang with him. I also had a smaller tank so you should be fine. Mine ate whatever was there for it to eat

they usually eat them like right away, at my lfs I saw a guy put the guppies in and a few seconds later they were lunch, just like spaghetti.

I've had the fish since last august and it's eye is a bit cloudy.

I have just noticed that my clown fishes left eye is basically buldging out of its head. What the hell is going on somebody please help quickily.:help:
