Helo all. How do you get a fish to eat other food types? I have an emperor (only for a few days so I am not complaining!) and he will only eat Mysis Shrimp. As I said he is new to the tank and he is eating like a pig so I am happy about that. He doesnt want to bother with anything other than...

I would just order a reef package from here... its the greatest thing ever. You get everything you need in 1 shot instead of trying to piece it all together from your lfs- much cheaper too. I have already ordered a bunch of things from here and I havent been the least bit disssatisfied.

Nevermind!! I Found Another Forum. Thanks

I desperately need some advice getting rid of this Algae Problem of mine... I get this Reddish-Maroon algae all over my tank. It is a very light algae that doesnt need to be scraped off... its almost like silk- just not as nice. No matter how much i suck it out, it is always there the next day...

Well Tyler... triggers really should have no less than 90 gallons but it also depends on what/how many fish you have with it. This specific trigger doesn't get along with anything- so he is in my 72 gal bow all by himself. Niger's are pretty good with other tankmates, and huma huma's are too...

the only fish i add are his meals

Thanks... I just wish his tail was open.

Absolutely awesome fish!! only problem is- very lonely looking tank, but worth it.

Ok I will try that- if not I dont think He's going to make it. Thanks.

Sorry- I cant get a good shot
