    New Tank, Mean Fish

    There are two clowns and the 6 line wrasse is coming in tonight. I will take your advice about stacking. In regards to this cycling business, if I used premade salt water, does my tank still cycle? Or is that only if you make your own salt water. I'm a little confused. I def need to read a...

    New Tank, 3rd day with fish, thoughts?

    I suppose that could be the case. I guess I took some faith since I saw his set up in the back room. It was the water that was going into all of their tanks as well. I don't know. I got this tank off a friend who explained everything to me. He has multiple tanks and lots of fish with no...

    New Tank, 3rd day with fish, thoughts?

    I can try and see if they will let me pick it up later. I have already paid for it in order to place the order. I don't want my tank to crash. I will follow flowers instructions. Does it make a difference that I purchased pre mixed salt water? I did not mix it myself....so all this stuff about...

    New Tank, 3rd day with fish, thoughts?

    I used to live in Schaumburg. It's a nice area. Lot's to do. I agree about slowing down but the problem is that I prepaid for the wrasse and he ordered it. He will not allow me to return it. I asked him yesterday. This is also my only tank so I have no place else to put him.

    No it's not sand. It's crushed coral. What is the benefit of getting rid of some of the blue leg crabs? They are itty bitty. I picked out the smallest ones. What other CUC would be good? Really about the 6 line!!!! I'm so excited about him!!!!!! Do you think he wouldn't get along if I had 2...
