    Fluorescent Tubes vs. LED

    Wow, what a loaded question. It really depends on which lights you choose. To the electricity side, you would use less power. Most LED's are rated around 50,000 hours of life. You have several types to choose from. Marineland, for example, sells single bright units around $120 dollars...

    Strange clownfish behavior

    You said you started your tank this week. What did you do and in what order. Knowing what your parameters would be helpful. What size is your tank? I have seen clowns swim in odd ways, but constant behavior as you describe in not common.

    What is this cool little thing?!?!?

    Looks like some type of anemone. With the picture you have, it is hard to say what species, but it is an anemone.

    125 Gallon saltwater aquarium

    With what you listed: Snowflake Eel Stars & Stripes Puffer Niger Trigger Yellow Tang I would avoid your wrasse choices though. They would not fair well with chosen tankmates. Most of your tank cleaning species would also not fair well (crabs,shrimps, gobies, etc.) You might even consider...

    Crab Id please

    It does look like Liomera Sp (Red Boxing Crab). What do the claw tips look like? These are safe, for the most part. They could bother gobies during the night, but not likely. You should be fine.

    Can a yellow candy hogfish go in a 29 gallon tank?

    What other fish do you have? They can be very aggressive towards other yellow wrasses, and sometimes will pick on smaller fish. I would avoid any other smaller wrasses and crustcea are almost always fair game. They can reach 10cm. As said, sexing is almost impossible without having both...

    Nitrates wont go down even after 4 water changes!!!

    You mentioned adding your fish, but you did not mention why you were treating with Melafix. Stopping your skimmer and also removing your carbon (If you use carbon regurlary.) will cause such a spike. If you do too many water changes close together, you can actually create a mini-cycle. Both...

    Help! Two days after got my little guy.... Not sure what this is?

    It does appear to be aggression. What type of damsels do you have? Also, what is your tank size? I have also seen this occur not from other fish, but from the fish itself darting around rock while evading more aggressive fish types.
