I really hope it's just acclimating itsself to my water. It was full looking on Wednesday and Thursday but today it's lookin pretty shriveled. My water is fine and he couldn't ask for any better lighting. I'm gonna do a water change tomorrow and I'll definately keep an eye on him.

I purchased a BTA the other day for my tank and it was all well and what not....the tips were full and the mouth was colorful. One of my clowns took a liking the the anenome which made me pretty happy. I woke up today and noticed the clown rustling around in it and the anenome's tips were...

I use a protein skimmer that is up to par, my trates are at a good level and I use RO water. I may try a PH close to the floor but my anemone probably won't like that. Any other suggestions??

Well my cycle has been over for over a month now, but I still get this brown dust on my sand....sorta looks like diatoms. I have a clean up crew of 12 nassarius, 12 blue legs, and 2 turbos for my 38 gallon. Do I need more cleaners, such as sand sifters for the tank? Any suggestions would...

I'll probably do a 10-15% change. Water quality is fine but wanna make sure it's close as possible to perfect.

It's pretty much time for me to do my water change and I was wondering how much I should switch out, percent wise? Last months water change if I recall correctly I switched out around 20%, but that was after the cycle. Is 10% per month good or is that too little? I have a 38 gallon tank with...

Hey everyone I added 2 clowns on Saturday and a BTA yesterday. All is well and it seems everything is in good health. I was wondering if I could add a piece of coral today or do I need to wait a little longer in between the additions? I'm looking around for a hardy piece, so if anyone has any...

Sounds great!! Thanks!!!

My tank has been done with it's cycle for almost a month now. It has a couple of cleaners, peppermints, and some snails and crabs in it. I was wondering if I can start to add coral into the system or is it still too early? I was either looking into that OR adding a clown or two with a host...

I am very fascinated with Maroon clowns and have been wanting to get one for the past couple of weeks. I was told they can be aggressive towards other clowns, and that is fine with me as I can stay clear of them. I wanna know if they are aggressive towards other species of fish or just to...

Hey would they be mean just to other clowns or just other fish in general??

Yes they took them back which was the right thing to do. They found out late last week that the batch of clowns from which i purchased from where used to cycle a tank by the distributor they purchase from. They learned that around 80 of the 100's of clown fish they had had ammonia poisoning so...

I was wondering could a maroon clown be well off in a 38 gallon tank?? I had two true percs but returned them today due to health reasons and saw a maroon that I liked alot. Any ideas??

I have had 2 clowns in my tank for a week and a half and they seemed to be fine up until yesterday. One clown is acting normal, but the other seems to be dragging. I was inspecting her closely today and I saw some white blotches on her top fin and on her nose. Is a freshwater bath an order for...

Alright so I bit the bullet the other day and purchased the Canon G5. It is an awesome camera and I was having a field day with it in regards to close ups with my tank. I'm probably gonna keep it since I got it for a good deal, but it is a little too bulky for me to carry around. I used to have...

Thanks for the help Beth!! I decided to not purchase another fish today just in case she was getting sick. The white string is not there anymore which is a relief and she seems happy yet still pretty timid during feeding. This evening I introduced some pellet food to the tank....hopefully...

Thanks for the feedback Beth!! She's acting normal but it seems sometimes she doesn't eat. I offer them frozen brine and plankton and mix some vitamins in with it. I may go and buy some flake food to see if she will accept that more properly. I'll keep an eye on her!!!

Alright so I was looking at one of my clowns today and I noticed a white string coming out from under one of them. You can see it in this picture: http://f2.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/hto...&.dnm=61cd.jpg My water parameters are all good and I've had the clowns for a little less than a week. They...

hey thanks for all the info. everyone!! Well right now I'm definately thinking of getting 1 peppermint and one blood red shrimp or cleaner shrimp. Now I think that psychadelic mandarins are the coolest looking fish, but have heard that I would need a refugium in order to feed them. Is there a...
