If I were to start over on a tank, I'd get 2 clown fish. They're pretty hardy and they're so much fun to watch.

Yeah, I'm not really for sure yet on exactly what to do. I have a lot of learning to do and I've been reading a lot. I have around 70 pounds of sand and about 20 pounds of rock. I need to get some more live rock. I've just been really broke. The only fish I have is my lunar wrasse. My fish tank...

I'm glad that all of you fish are alive, but if you have the receipt everything should be fine. Good luck with the situation and I hope everything works out. Hopefully you get a new and more improved tank (for free)! =)

Thank you very much. I hope he makes it too. I've grown attached to him. I have been reading the new hobbyist page a lot. There's a lot of good information there. I'm glad I stumbled into this site. There's no telling what I'd be doing. lol

How do you keep it so clean? Spill your secrets, oh master!

Okay, I turned one of the lights off because the lighting in my room is really poor. I turned the light off that was over him. Yeah, if he does die I'm going to keep up the hobby. I've already been looking at other fish. I'll probably go to a reef tank if he does die. Go with some anemones and...

Aww, thank you Fishygurl. =) I am really trying hard. I hate to see animals suffer and I'll do anything to try to make somethings life better. I just finished the water change. I did 10 gallons and I used a 5 gallon bucket. I put the right amount of water conditioner and I put it in before I...

Okay, I'm about to do a 10 gallon water change. I think that should be enough for a 55 gallon tank. Wish my luck and I'll post more details when I get more. Inputs are welcome. Thank you so much for everything! =)

Okay, I did my tests. My pH was between 8.0-8.2, Ammonia was slightly under 0.25 ppm, Nitrate was between 0 and 5 ppm, and my Nitrite was 0 ppm. How do those sound? I also found some of that chemical that was mentioned earlier. It's called Seachem, metronidazole, for Marine and freshwater...

I have all the test kits. I just bought a 5 gallon bucket to start doing the water change. I bought some extra salt just in case an emergency might occur. I have an Ammonia, Nitrate, Nitrite, and pH test kit. I'm going to test the water really quick and see what they're all at before I do the...

Alright, I'm going to start doing the water change. I'll keep you guys updated. Thank you so much for your help. If you have any more inputs please let me know. I'll check regularly. Thank you!!!!

I don't think the stuff I bought is for drinking water. I got it from ***** and it's called water conditioner for fresh and saltwater aquariums. It says on it, "makes tap water safe." I know that lunar wrasse are hardy fish and I think this stuff would be okay for an emergency. I'm trying to act...

I don't think my LCF sells R.O. water. Is there any other water I should try? I have this chemical that says it makes tap water harmless.. is that a lie? I'm about to do a 15-20% water change. Should I go buy purified water and use that as the water change mixed with the salts, etc that I...

Okay, how much do you suggest I buy of the RO water? I have a 55 gallon tank. I really appreciate you for giving time to help me out. Thanks! =)

The chemicals I bought are Cycle and some kind of water purifier. I honestly never heard of the RO water. What exactly is that? Maybe I should go to my LFS and ask them about the RO water and do a water change with that? and then add the chemicals again around 8 o'clock tonight. The water in my...

Okay, I'll add the chemicals now, is it okay even though I added the chemicals around 8 p.m. last night and it's around 12:30 p.m. now? I'm scared of adding too much. If I can do it now, I will.. and then I'll do a water change tonight.

Well, thank you very much. I'm practically freaking out. lol, everyone at work is like Lyndsey!!! It's just a fish!!! But, he's so cute and I want him to follow me around my room like he used to. I'm about to run to town and try to go to an actual salt water store and ask them all these...

see, I asked someone if I should do a water change and they told me no. I'm pretty scared of doing the water change because I use tap water, but I bought this stuff that's suppose to make tap water safe. Also with water changes, I'm very new at this stuff.. I had this hobby practically thrown at...

Wow, that makes me shudder. I couldn't imagine that happening. :( I'm so sorry. Did all your fish make it? What's the follow up?

I vote the queen!!! Very impressive fish, I'd LOVE to have her in my tank. Go for it! Your wife will absolutely adore it!
