That is a great question! I too wonder the same thing, as SWF.com strongly prohibits keeping two large angels together, yet on this forum and youtube you see tons of people keeping four to five various breeds of large angels together. I personally won't risk it, but I sure will get an emperor...

My new puffer I got last week is doing the exact same thing right now, and he is by far the biggest boy in the tank. He is slowly getting better too. Good luck and puffers are the best!

That is what they say. I have saw a video on Youtube that shows one eatting a shark at a public aquarium. Smart and mean!

From what I have saw of a juvi queen, the lines on it's sides are squiggly sort of, more so than a juvi blue. With that color I bet it is a queen juvi too! Nice fish either way, but if it is a blue, I would make the seller refund you the cost difference. I know where I live that the queens are...

Emperors are my fav. too! You would be good with a emperor for a while in that 125 gallon, but if they truly can get up to 16 inches in captivity, then a 200-300 gallon is needed in the least. I have never saw one over 12 inches myself, other than at a large public aquarium. Good choice on...

Most picaso tiggers (humu humu) will only get 8-9 inches so like the other guy said your def. good there with it as long as you don't overstock. I would avoid a clown or black hawaiian trigger if you can, agression and size being my argument there. The emperor will get up to 16 inches so they...

If you want to save money and pick and choose which ones to keep, I use a syringe with water from the tank that I boil on the stove and then suck it into the syringe and squirt them with it. It literally burns them up immediatley, and it does not effect the temp if done in a small amount, plus...

Hello everyone! I have a fighting conch snail and I am not sure what has happened to it's eyes today. I got home this evening, and it appeared that one of his eyes had been bitten off or something of the sorts, but with further inspection (with a magnifying glass) I saw that the eyeball looked...

Go Israel!!!! Alot of those "other" countries in the Middle East and some in Europe are looking for any excuse to hate the Jews. I say that Israel ignore them all this time and finish the job and NEVER give them the Gaza strip again. They should not have to take anyone's crap EVER again! Give...

I love.....English bulldogs, boxers, and american bulldogs! Just give me something with a bulldog in it. But no, really...it is all about the fish here people. Keep it clean. What dog could compete with a porcupine pufferfish! Wait...don't answer that!

I've got a couple on some of my live rock too, but I saddly do not know what it is at the moment. It is possibly some type of bacteria growth or algae, but I would lean towards the bacteria more IMO. It looks slimey out of the water but your right, when it is submerged it is very dark and black...

You guys are out for blood! For real, you vampires! Well...that tank is a 20 long for sure IMO, at least it looks identical to the one I have for QT. Seriously, yes we all know that most any respectable saltwater fish expert or dealer, blah blah.... will tell you that you need at least a 75...

I know the feeling my friend. It took me forever and far too much time to get a small humu humu triggerfish recently, and then I get him home and against my black background it is so clear that he has a minor case of ICK, so now I am in hypo with the QT tank. I just could not see it in the...

Sorry I do not know, but if you want to get the best answer I would copy your question and put under the Hitchhickers section of the forum. That is where they usually ID the weird stuff like this. Good luck!

I'm treating two of my fish for ICK also right now, one was purchased with it. A picaso trigger of all things! The other, a juvenile porcupine pufferfish, got it from some live rock in the DT. I have both in the Hospital/QT tank, and I have been treating the puffer for about a week in a half...

Crypt Keeper you race bikes too? Cyclists also perhaps? If so that is funny b/c I am worried about taking proper care of my SW tank once racing season starts back up! Cheers

Domino's are the devil!! They should therefore be kept with other devils and everybody in Hell will be happy! LOL! They are cool looking when they are small, and their super cheap too! Elite: I would definately try and get a Regal Tang or a "center piece" fish for your tank. Just do a 3 week...

Too big for sure. The Humu Humu or Picaso triggerfish can reach sizes up to 9 inches or more, I would suggest at least a 75, well really 100 gallon min IMO for the long term of a triggerfish such as this. Whether or not your trigger would be too aggressive is dependent upon the individual fish's...

This happened a couple of times to my porcupine pufferfish for a day or two and he eventually coughed it all out of him. Like Scott says on his SWF.com videos, patience. I am very sorry to hear that you flushed him, IMO my fish will go "belly-up", or down on their own, before I will discard...

$30 for my juvenile Porcupine Puffer fish, he now has a slight case of ick but has been in the QT tank for the past week making an honest recovery effort out of it! The biggest rip off was paying $26 for a neon goby to try and eliminate the ick. I checked three different pet stores and only...
