    My first pictures of my 55

    Hey! I've been on the boards for quite a while, but never have posted pictures. I've had this tank up and running now for 6 months. I had it set up before, but unfortunately we moved twice. So, needless to say, this tank has been through a lot. I finally bought my first coral today, some...

    Anyone have pajama cardinal fish?

    Cool, thanks. I've been wondering why they're still stressed out, and it's nice to hear it's natural for their coloring to do that. I'll probably buy another one to make 3 of them.

    Anyone have pajama cardinal fish?

    I have had my pajama cardinals for about 2 months now. They're eating great and swimming around, looking really healthy. I am wondering if anyone else with them notices theirs being darker around their mouths and eyes? I figured mine were stressed out in the beginning because they developed...

    Please Help!!

    I had a problem with fish dying, and decided to just let my tank sit for a few months. I am so glad I did. My fish I added two weeks ago have survived. I didn't know why my other fish died either, but they were within two days of each other. Since I didn't know why and all of my levels were...

    purple o beautiful purple

    are your lights new? I just heard someone say that they replace their bulbs every six months or so. I had about a year on mine and set it back up after being torn down for about 6 months. I had NO coralline growing at all, even after it's been set up for 6 months now. So, I changed my bulbs...

    treating melanosis

    Hey Beth and anyone else! I just wanted to post something that may help others in the future. I was having trouble keeping fish alive in my tank, but all of my inverts have been thriving. I couldn't figure out what was wrong, so I decided to not add ANYTHING to my tank for a while. I waited...

    treating melanosis

    http://www.marineaquariumadvice.com/...ishPartTwo.htm This is a link to the fish. I did use my rock from the previous tank. I just couldn't throw it out. I scrubbed it really good and added it to the tank before I started cycling it. If there were dead organic matter in it, wouldn't it show...

    treating melanosis

    Well, I have a pajama cardinal fish and noticed that around it's mouth it is turning black. I found a picture on the internet that looked just like how the fish looks. It was talking about how the dark spot is a sign of stress and is called melanosis. I wasn't sure if there are things you can...

    wow, that's pretty crazy that what I was told isn't true, just shows how much crap some fish stores can feed you.

    New eels, Please assist

    a lot of people don't even have a skimmer. I didn't have one for the first year of my tank. So, it obviously will be fine. It's one of those things that are optional, but beneficial.

    Sally lightfoot crabs die naturally from growing. They shell only gets to be so big and they end up outgrowing it, but don't molt it. It's weird. They end up almost suffocating for lack of a better word in their own shell. It's nothing with your tank, it's just what happens to them. I had a...
