i got the green with yellow tips, and they have been in the display tank at my lfs for a while now, he also had a blue with yellpw tips which is beautiful too. i learned about their feeding habits after i bought it. if i do see deterioration, im going to take it back. i think they survive better...

hmm, theyre great but i could never keep them for over a week.

theyre reef safe, i got one. however they are EXTREMELY difficult to feed, they are very picky eaters and usually starve to death. the only thing they really do to upset a reef tank is crawl all over corals, besides that they filter feed. heres mine.

the thing is i cannot remove each rock, it is in a large display tank i believe 75 gallon tall, and each rock is pretty huge. i was wondering if anythign ate them? perhaps an arrow crab?

what can i add to get rid of the zoo eating nudis? i believe its a berghia verrucicornis, and there are tons of them.

here is another picture. if its those theyre Amphiscolops Flatworms. they are harmless, but can be an eyesore. and they can also multiply like crazy. some nudibranches eat them.

My Banded shrimp laid, rather, hatched eggs again for the second time since ive had it. its great and all, but im wondering how??? the only other shrimp i have is a scarlet cleaner. did they hop on the good foot and to the bad thing with each other?? i guess they must have, unless the coral...

Thanks 55GalGill. its been such a learning experience. its a science as much as its a hobby. it seems every aspect needs to be looked after. its also an addiction and debt maker. speaking of selling your first born, they have an acanstrea... on eye it buy it for $2000, WOW! thats a lil too much...

Ok. the first thing you need to keep in mind is the size and depth of your aquarium. and ill explain, the depth determines how low the light will reach. so if you have a very tall aquarium, you will need higher intensity lighting in order to penetrate deeper. the second thing you need to think...

Thats a tough one...if i had a QT, id put it in there and do some water changes to flush it out, or u can try the drip acclimation process and make sure to fill the bucket a few times over with your own water.

i would try maybe a small candycane coral, or maybe a small rock with some shrooms on it. only considering you have enough lighting. how long has your tank been set up? if you say you want to add the LR, does that mean you have a new tank? if so, you cant keep corals for a while. you need some...

Its Doing Great! i dont see any brown anywhere on the head, and the polys are coming out. Phew, i was worried for a while there! The photo Does no justice to its color.

Well...as far as emerald crabs, those are reef safe, all they eat is algae. did you check the hitchhiker id forum in the newbie section?

beautiful zoos. i really like supercolored ones, they look so nice.

my lfs sells them as "red crabs" i believe they are harmless cleaners.

so i got home tonight and made sure to leave the lights in my room off as to not disturn the nocturnal creatures. i was checking up on the leather with a red light and i noticed that the small polyps or whatever they are had come out. this is a good sign right?

ok, i cut it and placed it under flow. and i did a water change to make everything nice and clean. now all i need to do is be a mother and nurture my sick baby. man this hobby is so consuming!!

so u think its bacteria? is it ok to use an x-acto knife? should i do it under water, or in a bowl outside the tank? and lastly, will the damaged part regenerate?
