    new fish ideas!

    Why not another trigger - they are beautiful and probably would get along with the aggressive guys you have now.

    Fish Stocking Question...

    Both of these angels are great looking fish, but they are also a little on the aggressive side,so you should give thought now to whether you are going to go the aggressive or peaceful route. Then we can begin to suggest other fish, and order of addition.

    Yellow tang bullying new naso. Please help!

    Things will be more peaceful now. Tangs frequently do not get along, and yellow tangs are pretty aggressive. Someone had to go, so you made the right move.

    Planning stages for my setup

    I learned my lesson haha.  I remember when I first start my tank up and didn't do ANY planning... didn't even know what I needed for a SWT.  That later bit me in the butt and since then I have vowed to myself that if I wanted to have a showcase like aquarium that planning is the only way it'll...

    red mandrin need help

    My mandarin takes frozen prawn roe. To feed, I turn off all circulation and use a pipette to deposit a small mound if roe on the sand. He has come to recognize the pipette and come directly to it, and even take food directly from the tip.

    Snowflake Eel missing

    I always quarantine. The only exception are corals, but those get an iodine soak. It doesn't matter where they come from since all of the marine critters at some point went through the tanks of wholesalers who process thousands of fish, so the odds of disease, parasites, infection, etc. are...

    Planning stages for my setup

    BTW - congratulations on doing your planning ahead of time. I recently set up a new 220 gal system without adequate planning, and it is going to cost me mucho $$$ to fix the lack of pre-planning.

    Planning stages for my setup

    I don't use any adhesive on my rockwork - it only comes back later to bite me when I have to redo the rock design because of aggression problems with new fish. Instead, I drill 1/4 inch holes into the rock and use 1/4 inch acrylic dowels to join two pieces. It holds together well, and is easy...

    Seeing that video gave motivation to get a CBB, and after trying brine shrimp, etc. I gave it soMe clam on a rock and it ate all it could find. Thanks.

    Evolution vs. Intelligent Design

    "In the realm of Creation-v-evolution I look at it like this and I think this thread has brought it out beautifully: The person who believes in God believes He created all there is and looks for reasons to justify that faith-but is willing to admit it. The person who doesn't believe in God looks...

    Evolution vs. Intelligent Design

    Actually, she could have said it much better, since she made unwarranted assumptions about me, my religious beliefs and my spirituality. Just because I have accused Flower of being one-dimensional in her relationship with science and God, she assumed that I was equally unidimensional, but of...

    Do you have any evidence for any parts of those statements?

    Evolution vs. Intelligent Design

    The idea that Darwin regretted his theory, and recanted it in his deathbed is irrelevant. Science does not work by deifying a person, or his beliefs. Even if he did recant, 1 50 years of efforts to prove his theory wrong have only added evidence that in most aspects, he was right.

    Evolution vs. Intelligent Design

    You want transitional, I'll give ya transitional. Look up "tiktaalik", then tell me there are no transitional fossils (although, as I have said before, every species is, by definition transitional).

    Evolution vs. Intelligent Design

    I'm jumping on my couch :) There should be a fossil record that follows the steps from whatever we supposedly evolved from to where we are now. I am not saying there's no evolution. I've just never seen anything to prove we slithered out of the same pool of ooze the rest of the animals on this...
