This maybe should have been in the DIY forum, but i figured what the heck. I just went to Autozone and bought some mini blue LED lights that are in the "import tuner" section. They are supposed to be in a car shining on the dash or floor, or whatever. They come in a pair. I also bought a female...

You need one. Depending on what size tank you get, there are all different sized heaters.

They wont bother other shrimp, just other Coral banded shrimp unless they are a mated pair. I have one in my 46 gal bow along with two camel backs and a skunk cleaner shrimp with no problems at all.

thank you

If you lived around here you would think thats a steal! LR at my LFS is 8.99 to 9.99 a lb. And its not the best looking stuff. :)

amen....

Also, if you think about it, in a well cared for tank, what does a fish or other creature have to worry about? No predators, readily available food that is chosen for each different creatures needs. IMO i think we do the fish a favor. That is however if we go by the rules and dont put them in...

I'm really considering starting a 5 minibow, or maybe even a 2gal minibow nano. I'd like to see some pics of others setups, from th most simple to the very complex. Thanks!!

what do i need to do for the anemone if i kept it? does it need more light or should i feed it anything in particular?

The Tank is a 46 bowfront with about 30-35 lbs of LR, two damsels, and the things is listed above. Thats all for livestock. The tank is a little over a month old.

My dad happend to be in the LFS tonight and decided to bring me home a few gifts. I would have taken them straight back, but its a 40 min drive, and by the time he got here they were closed. He was just being nice and thinking of me, but he knows nothing at all about sw fish. Anyway, he brougt...

Those things are everywhere in Myrtle Beach SC. I vacation there a lot and we always catch them. The locals call them sand crabs.

I'm by no means an expert on this, but from what i've read on here and other forums, if you get your LR from a LFS and its fully cured, you should be able to add it with out problems as long as its kept moist and not out of the water for very long. I added about 10lbs a couple weeks ago to my...

Yes, that's what i hear. I'm gonna add a few peppermint shrimp this weekend and see if they find them tasty... :)

anyone?

I checked the hitchhiker thread and didn't see anything that fit the description. I have at least 3 of these white worms in my LR. They range from 12 to 2", and they are about as big around as a small sewing needle. They only come out when the lights are off and when i shine a light on them...

I used Garden Basics Play Sand from walmart. It passes the test and looks great in the tank. U have to wash it a little at a time in a bucket though before you put it in or it will cloud the water really bad. I washed mine over and over before i put it in 3 weeks ago, and the tank has never...
