    Need some creative minds!

    Susan, thank you. I was just wondering about the six line because I have one in my 25 gallon with my flame angel, and thought that if it would work I could add the six line to the 12 and get something else for the 25. And I understand the limitation, like I said, I had clowns because I knew...

    Need some creative minds!

    Wow, thanks guys!!!! Zact, I have never heard of the cherubfish, so I definently will look into that. I was considering a firefish, but didn't know if they would add enough activity. Does anyone think that a full grown 6-line would be alright in a 12 gallon? I was thinking about it, but...

    Need some creative minds!

    Alright guys, I have been racking my brain and can't come up with anything super creative. I just finished cycling a 12 gallon eclipse, with 12 lbs. live rock and some clowns. I am thinking of using this tank as a little reef, or a fo with corals kind of thing. I am trying to come up with...

    Murder Mystery?

    Size really doesn't matter when it comes to hunger. During the break, I slept in quite a bit, not feeding my fish at their usual 6:00 feeding, but more around dinner. My angelfish one morning could not wait that long, turned on her very good house keeper, Mr. Cleaner Shrimp, chopped him in...

    I know, it is fabulious! Even though I am not qualified enough, I kinda wish that I could be a shark in at least one forum, but I am sure that everyone would. I think the next shark should be Clayton and Sammy! ~~Megan

    Juv. imperator angel

    I'm sorry, what I meant is don't they have to keep those fins right beside their gills in constant motion, and thats how they pump the air. Not that the fish must always be moving, but those fins at least do. I am very sorry for giving incorrect information, I will check my source better next...

    Mantis or Pistol Shrimp ?

    I am very sorry Broomer, I really don't know of a remedy for those other than try to catch it, which sounds from your descrpition to be very impossible. All I know is that Mantis shrimp bad!, but I have never heard of them making a popping sounds, and I would never have guessed that a shrimp...

    Juv. imperator angel

    Most of the time these fish during the day hours usually stay very active. What are you feeding it, your water levels? How big is the tank? Fish must stay in some kind of motion inorder to breathe, so rarely do they completely stop swimming, even when they sleep (they barely move, but still...

    Live sand for substraight?

    That is sounding like a great idea, and that is an awesome pic, the one at the bottom of the screen. And now I feel really bad because I have some of those, just a few, that I bought that are green, but I had forgotten what they were called. How would you fill the whole bottom with those and...

    White spots on glass?

    Yes I have these as well and they do spiral outwards, like the yellow brick road and they never move. I didn't think they were actually an organism since they don't move, but you think that they could possibly be tubeworms? ~~Megan

    Clean up Crew and Porcupine Puffer

    Your clean up crew for your tank will have to be you, sorry but your puffer will not allow for any inverts in your tank with out "tasting" them himself. To keep him from eating other fish, you must have fish that are similar in size to your puffer. So if you puffer is 3", then fill your tank...

    Live sand for substraight?

    I am sorry for my ignorance here guys, but what are star polps? Would you use them like you would substrate, even under LR, or would you use them just around the LR? ~~Megan

    Copper as preventitve??

    If you don't have corals, keeping hte tank temp at 80 to 82 is the best preventative against ick. Ick grows or whatever at 79 and below, so keeping the temp at 80 even reduces and almost elimates ick in the tank. ~~Megan

    I would like to go to school in either New Mexico, Wyoming or Montana. I really wanted to be a Vet, but I am kinda not into the whole look at blood stuff, but I think working for a vet might work. I am a senior in Texas and I should be graduating with honors. My friend that goes to a private...
