I have never heard a six line wrass eating bristle worms. I also never heard of a brislte worm growing back after it was ripped in half. It dosn't mean it's not true. Arrow crabs eat bristle worms. I waisted my money on 1 of those traps. Never caught a bristle worm. I heard you can get a glass...

I have a question about my reef. My tank has been doing quite well. Although my pH is a little low (8.0), everything else looks good. I’ve noticed a maroon like mat forming on my rock, almost like moss on a tree(only maroon). It actually looks nice, But I do not know what it is. I strongly...

I got a glass jar (mayo), put some ghost shrimp on the bottom, and didn't feed my fish all day. I caught my blue devil this way. The only thing about this is that you have to stay by your tank so you can grab the jar out of the water when the fish goes in there. The fish will go in the jar, but...

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get a Sally Light Foot crab out with out taking rock and corals out? My LFS has some great looking baby maximas for 20 bills. My PH is 8.3 and my calcium is just right. The only thing stopping me is my violent crab. I've made the mistake of putting a...

I am no expert on fish, but I would give your Potter's Angel some more time to adjust to your tank. I just got a Coral Beauty Angel about 3 months ago, and it took him 3 12 weeks to start eating live food. I feed him a little blood worm and live brine. When I first got him I was worried, but...

Originally posted by Freddie: Horhey, i have the same tank with just 2 40 watt floursent lights in it, and i want to replace with halide or power compacts. Can you give me the web site for the power compacts? do you have to construct them yourself? will they fit in a canopy? I am with you...
