    Seahorses

    Sea horse are not hard to take care of just delicate. I would not put them in with anything with stinging cells. It could stress them to the point of death. Go with captive bred horses that eat frozen mysis. They need to be fed at leaste 2-3 times a day. I just poor the food in the top with no...

    dark brown algae?

    Just because your nitrates read 0 you may still have some but the brown algea is eating it fast enough to keep it from showing up in your tests. I had the same problem.

    manderins

    My mandarin ate frozen at the lfs. I put him in my tank with alot of pods and he was happy with those but when they were gone he would not go back to frozen. I say they will only eat pods. The only way I would trust getting a mandarin to eat frozen is if your system has no pods in it and you see...

    Dominoes are one of the most aggressive of the damsels. I liked the look of them to so I got one and it tore up my clown fish. Nipped little wholes and tears in his fins because of the domino. I gave him to a freind and they put him in their tank and before he even went to find a hiding spot he...
