Sounds like a strange question I know. But my cat will sit and stare into the tank and usualy only follows one fish in there. My Golden Headed Sleeper Goby.... He doesnt care about the Clown or the damsels.

Well, you can risk adding a Damsel or two. they will definatly poop and pee in the water for you. That should kick things in gear for you. But, keep an eye on them if the water starts to spike. We dont want floating fishies.... (plus, you can use the shrimp method. You can pull it out before...

I did some research on the flame angel. Basicaly, its reef safe, but you need to monitor it.. :-) Cardinals can be rather fetching. Id have to agree there. Corrals are very dependant on lighting. They need a lot of blue spectrum and a bright overall light. The blue specrum premotes their...

Id agree. Buy the fish there and have the store send it on to you. Im sure theres a stilly law somewhere that could get you in trouble if you just bring a fish home without asking (or paying some kind of stupid federal tax)

looks like your getting a lot of algee there too. Did the power go out over the weekend perhaps?.

you can add correl any time you want as long as your water is 100% stable and all chemical levels are 'perfect'. (oh, and you have the right kind of light to premote photosynthasys)

Thats what it is. Asternia. Wow, they are intersting little critters!. I almost want to watch it constantly and see if I can photograph it splitting!!. I was just surprised it came in on the turbo snail and not the rock. LOL. Well, between the 4 snails, the 4 (although i cant find the 4th one...

As long as its packed properly. the live rock should be fine. I usualy see it wrapped in damp paper in large bags with water. I cycled my tank with 10Lbs of live rock and 30lbs of live sand. Plus I added 'cycle' into the process. (im gonna slap the next person who asks how big my tank is...

Alright. I bought 4 Turbo snails the other say and when I got home I discovered one of them had a tiny starfish on its shell!!. ALRIGHT! Free livestock!! Problem is though. I have no idea what kinda starfish it is. I have a picture, but Im looking for a place to host my site...... Heres a...

Alright. My tank isnt big enough to accomodate an Irish Moore. But the Heniochus Butterfly seems kinda cute and has a similar shape and look in a more compact size. However. Would you put this fish into a tank that you would later add Corrals to??

What has changed in the last few weeks? Have you changed the fish food, has the fish food been tainted? Whats the water temperature? When was the last time you changed your light? (what kinda light is it?) Whats the water quality like? (test it and post it) Hows the O2 levels in the water? Is...

Put it where you want it. Then just let it move if it wants. If it moves, then its safe to say it wasnt happy with where you put it in the first place.

Who can say? My 40Gallon Cycled in 10 days with Live Rock and Live Sand, plus using a aditive called Cycle. Everyones tank is different, and will cycle at a different time. Two weeks it apparently the minimum with no interfearance to the process. But it could also take upto a month and...

Okay. I got some FD-Krill today. I put 4 bits into my tank and watched the Clown go loopy. It takes a krill from the surface of the water and wedges it in a cave in the rocks... This is normal right??? The funny thing is, one of the Damsels goes into the cave while the clown is retreaving...

Sweet. Thanks man. Got my shopping list for the LFS... :-) Time to bend the Old plastic again. LOL

Right. Theres a differance between having one in a tank and having a happy one in a tank. I think I can keep her quiet with a butterfly perhaps. Then Ill grab one about 6 moinths before I upgrade. Yes, the Regal and Hippo are the same thing. Well, once I got some more rock in place, Ill...

2. Uh, 40 Gallons... :-) The metals thing. This perplexes me a little. In ??? they dumped a large number of old Tanks and Military vehiles into the water on the edge of a corral reef. In 2 years, the corrals were growin on the tanks and fish has made their homes inside. Must be the oxides...

Day 7: Nothing different here. Ammonia levels are dropping rapidly. All other mesurements are holding steady. Day 8: Nuts, the Damsels seem to like the plant on my rock. Its almost totaly gone. Checking the water today shows steady drop in Ammonia and everything else is holding steady. Day...

(The avatar is "Wembly" from Fraggle Rock) The Rock I get is from a LFS that cures their stuff before it goes into their 'for sale' tank. The other store is apparently ending their saltwater section! So they sould have some good bargains soon. However, I tested their water from a bag I got...

Okay. Where would one locate a feather duster? Would it like a strong current, a weak current or no current??
