i bought an emerald crab about three weeks ago for my 29 gallon tank. just today i was feeding him some frozen plankton and he grabbed at it and then opened up the bottom half of his body and was fiddleing around with stuff in there and then he closed it. its like a trap door compartment kind of...

the tanks temparature didnt drop by ten degrees, i just added about 3 gallons of 68 degree water (just a guess) to 20 gallons of 78 degree water, so wouldn't the temparature only change by like two or three degrees tops? thanks for the reply. im at a hotel right now so i cant check up on my tank...

i've got those too, i was thinking about maybe asking the board about them, but never got around too it. what are those called?

everything seems like its getting better exept for the pulsing Xenia, do u guys think it will recover?

the water was room temperature, colder then the tank by probably about ten degrees.

yesterday i bought some snails, hermit crabs, and a emerald crab. At the shop i bought them at they were all in different tanks, so i had to accumulate them separately. my tank was also do for a water change and i figured i would do the water change first so the crabs and new snails wouldnt have...

i thought about taking a picture but i figured it wouldnt show up to well, plus my cameras memory card is full of christmas pictures. thanks for the info bang guy. i guess he wouldnt have been any trouble to leave in but at least now i can rest assured i dont have a crazy infestation of killer...

ok forgive me if all bristle worms do this, but i was laying in bed looking at my tank and i saw a little white thing swimming up and down in my tank so i went over and took a closer look. I turned the lights on in my room and saw that it wasnt really white, it was more like a bristle worm with...

i have a 29 gallon tank with snails and hermits right now. when it comes time for the fish i want to get a goby that will sit in a hole with a shrimp. so i would like some names of shrimp and names of gobys that are compatable, and likely to room with one another. thanks in advance for the info...

i have checked the clean up crews here. the problem with them is they have a reef package for 20-55 gallon tanks. so if i got that package for my 29 gallon it would have twice the animals/per gallon as someone who got it for their 55 gallon tank. so would this leave some animals to go hungery in...

I have a 29 gallon tank and im looking to start stocking up on crabs, snails, and anything else that i would need. Im wondering how many of each thing i need in order to keep algae, waste, and other stuff under control. so how many of the following would u guys recomend? blue legged hermits...

i bought three scarlet hermit crabs from my local fish shop about two weeks ago. The first few days they seemed to move around alot and i would see them walking around. But yesterday i found what i thought was a shedding so i took it out to look at it and it had the tail thing on there too and...

It should be fine, all my corals go through the same thing, he should be back to his normal look after about a day in the tank.

i would like to go with metal halides but ive heard of the heat problems with the halides on small tanks and i would not be able to afford a chiller. my local fish shop had a 150 HQI metal halide thing and the guy working there said that they are as strong as 250 watt normal metal halides and...

Im thinking about adding more light to my tank so i can have a wider variety of corals. i have 130 watts of Power Compacts coming from my orbit fixture and i was wondering if i bought two more 65 watt power compact lights and fit them in with the others would it allow for some stonies and stuff...

i hadnt heard of that coral before so i looked it up on google and saw some pictures of it sitting on some rocks. so i dont think it needs sand. but as for our other questions i dont know. -Trenton

I feed my orange sun coral brine shrimp and cyclopeeze. The cyclopeeze are the frozen ones that come in a cube, you scrape some off and then thaw them out then sprey them over the sun coral. Im not sure if cyclopeeze come in other forms so i figured id specify that they are frozen. -Trenton

I just came back from my local fish shop and heard some people talking about them, the fire shrimp are supposed to hide more and the cleaners will be more active and out in the open. -Trenton
