    Brown Slime Algea????

    I tried vacing it last night. It has got my sand so clumped up on the top layer that it hardly even sucked up. But what did smelled up my house. That stuff was rank!!! :scared: I have noticed that it isn't as bad in the morning as it is in the afternoon so I left my lights out today to see it it...

    Thanks. I am using RO water. I have only the lights that came with the setup. It isn't much but I don't plan on keeping any corals or anything. What causes Phosphorus?? Is there anything I can do to help get rid of it or just wait it out?? Should i get a bigger clean up crew??

    All Hail Nano Keepers!!

    I just have to say this to the nano people. I have a 10 gal tank set up with my fish in it treating them for ick and that little tank is so much harder to keep than my bigger ones. I have been fighting nitates like crazy and doing water top offs everyday plus water changes everyother day...

    Flame Angel died but why??

    I just got some because a lft guy told me that my cc star would like it. I only give it to the fish every once in awhile. They go nuts for it so it is like a special treat.

    Flame Angel died but why??

    No I don't just feed them flake food. I switch up what I give them. Flake, frozen brine, or this formula 1 frozen food (I think it is called formula 1) It is a special blend of food desingned for dwarf angels. I am sorry if I led you to beleive I only feed them flake. I will test for the copper...

    Flame Angel died but why??

    I found someone who wants him. They have a larger damsel and were thinking about getting another damsel to put in there. They said they would take him. I am glad I am getting rid of him. Thanks for all your help!!

    Flame Angel died but why??

    I stayed up last night to spy on the fish. I almost gave up but as soon as I thought there was no foul play going on (as I had thought) I cought the domino picking a fight with the clown. Then he started on the firefish so it ran and hid. I put a plastic divider in the tank to separate the...

    Flame Angel died but why??

    ok. I will tahke your word for it and leave him alone when he gets in there. I just was very worried because I know they call them dart fish for a reason but this weird little fish has never hid or darted away from me the whole time I have had him. Even at the lfs this one didn't hide he just...

    Seahorse tank pics please.

    That sounds cool. For right now all I want is 2 seahorse. I want to see how I do with them before I jump in over my head. After the 2 seahorse maybey some tank mates about a year down the road. I want some inverts though. A porcelain crab would be cool though. :thinking:

    Seahorse tank pics please.

    OK. You can't realy see it all that great but the mermaid has a harp that the serhorse could grab and there is a fake coral that is coming up behind her also. How many hitching post do you suggest to have for 2 seahorse?

    Seahorse tank pics please.

    I do plan on adding more LR. What else would you say for hitching posts. It is getting pretty full in there. Afer I add what LR I want I don't think I will have much more room for anything else as far a hitching post unless you guys can think of anything that will sit on the LR.

    Flame Angel died but why??

    Ok. Now I am getting realy upset. My purple firefish goby keeps squeezing himself between a peice of fake decor and the glass and can't get out. I found him like this this morning and let him out and when he swam out he started doing head dives at the bottom of the tank and rubbing him side...
