Hi. I got a new lawnmower blenny (Wilfred) on Wednesday. He is VERY shy as every time I walk in the room, he darts to his hiding spot. I am hopeful he will overcome this behavior. My worry is that I have not seen him eat. Should I assume that he is eating while I'm not in the room (while he...

That could be them. Do they have brown stripes on them??

Hello everyone, I know a picture would be helpful, but unfortunately I don't have one. What I DO have are these little round brown and white striped snails that seem to be multiplying like rabbits in my tank. I'm certain they came on my live rock and have noticed lately their population has...

Welcome!

At this stage, there are probably lots of things you can't see that a clean-up crew can munch on...however it may be best to wait until your ammonia is at zero. When you feel you are ready, I believe SWF.com has cleanup crew packages designed for your tank size. Have fun and good luck!! Beth

Oh, good. That makes me feel better! I did spot him in his hiding spot again with my cleaner shrimp. Gumbo (my shrimp) was cleaning him...so it seems he at least made a friend in the tank!

I can't seem to keep a turbo more than a couple of months...I think my hermits attack and eat them

My false percs love me too. They nip at my hand everytime I put it in the tank and are so curious as to what it is I'm doing! I sure hope the lawnmower warms up to me too. I hear they are supposed to have lots of personality We'll see!

He IS sneaky. I just tip-toed in on the tank and saw him perched on a rock. As soon as he saw me, he darted into a space between the live rock, making it impossible to see him. Is he going to continue to do this everything I walk in the room, or will he warm up to me once he realizes I am the...

...and now I can't find him. He has been out and about all morning and when I brought my dad in to see him, he was no where to be found. I have lights and a hood on top of the tank, so I don't think he could have jumped; and I'm certain I don't have anything in there that would eat him...but I...

Oh, you bet! My mom and I both name our fish! In my tank so far I have 2 false percs: Giggles and Chuckles, a cleaner shrimp named gumbo, and I have a lawnmower blenny arriving later this week that I think will be named Squidly (one of my students named that one).

Nice pics! Did you get your feather duster from swf?

I'm so excited!! I have a lawnmower blenny ordered from my lfs and he is due to arrive either tomorrow or Thursday! I can't wait! I originally had one on hold at the store, but when I went to pick him up I noticed that two of the other fish in the tank had a pretty bad case of ich...so I had...
