    Is this a bristleworm?

    Got it! Dunno know if he was harming coral, but there aren't any fish in the tank so maybe the detritus is scarce or something?

    Is this a bristleworm?

    I've been seeing this guy crawling on my green star polyp frag all day and am wondering if he is going to hurt the coral? They're all in right now because I took it out and tried to remove the worm with tweezers but couldn't catch him! Thanks

    ID needed, long branching white thing from LR

    it seems like only a few weeks. It survived a cycle and a few hours out of water! It does kinda look like a sponge though.

    ID needed, long branching white thing from LR

    Hey there. I was wondering what the heck this is as I've never seen it before. It doesn't look harmful. Is it some sort of worm?! "The long branching white thing" http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/4389/dscn0656a.jpg

    Am I overfeeding my trigger/eel?

    I was wondering about my 5-6 inch Niger Trigger and medium sized 12-14 inch Snowflake Moray. I feed the trigger every day usually 20-25 frozen small mysis shrimp and a couple pieces of squid sometimes. The eel usually gets fed every other day and gets a couple pieces of krill with either a...

    Skimmer not working properly

    I don't know how to adjust the air venturi, where is that? It's a couple years old, where is the air valve? I haven't done a recent water change.

    Skimmer not working properly

    My protein skimmer isn't making enough bubbles to come to the overflow container. It's an AquaC Urchin. I replaced the pump which is a maxijet 1200 a couple hours ago, but it doesn't seem to be fixing the problem. What else can I do? Is there any other mechanical parts that could go bad? Does...

    snowflake eel feedin

    What is considered a small amount? I tend to feed a few pieces of krill or squid daily. I've had him for a few weeks. He always comes out and swims around when I feed the trigger every day. He continues to swim around looking for food after I feed him a few pieces, is that a sign of him not...

    Recommend an active fish w/ Niger Trigger and Snowflake eel

    I've got a 3-4 inch niger trigger and a 8 inch snowflake moray. My tank isn't very lively so I'm looking for something more active I could add. The Niger hides all day. Suggestions? Maybe an angel or tang?

    Keeping eel out of overflow?

    I'll have a pic up later, it's a reef ready All glass aquarium with built in overflow if that helps. Thanks.

    Keeping eel out of overflow?

    I have a glass canopy for the tank (75gallon) but there is still a gap between the top of the overflow and the back of the canopy. What have you done to block the gap? Thanks.

    Is my Niger Trigger blind?

    What do you mean by "soaked" in vitamins? Do you mean get the raw shrimp, put it in water and add Zoecon to it?

    Is my Niger Trigger blind?

    Ok, thanks. I've almost had him for 2 weeks now so I'll try my best. For a feeder stick, can I use a chopstick or does it have to be special?

    Is my Niger Trigger blind?

    He misses the mysis also (soaked in vitamins and garlic). I didn't know about the seaweed, but he needs more in his diet than that right? The trigger is about 2-3 inches long. I've been feeding mysis soaked in vitamins/garlic and the krill. The krill comes in one big frozen package that you...

    Is my Niger Trigger blind?

    Ok, lol. I just hand fed him some krill! It's difficult and sometimes he'll spit it back out :( But, it's an improvement I suppose. How many pieces of krill should I be aiming for per day?
