Hey! Fish ppl from Jersey!!!! Where in NJ is everyone??? I'm in So. Jersey. And I work at an lfs and I can recommend a few good stores around me!!!

Hey Eric where in Jersey??? I'm about 1/2 way from Philly to AC. You've probably never heard of Tabernacle but thats where i'm at.

Hahaha.. Serously, tho, crabs are a pain to catch out of a tank. At the LFS I work at we had a large crab that was knocking all the corals over in out 180 reef. To catch him we covered the front and sides of the tank with tank backing, and made a trap out of one of those plastic containers you...

My personal two would be wrasses: Harlequin Tusk, and either a Hardwicke wrasse or a Jansen wrasse. An eel of some sort would be kinda cool too tho. Just my 2 cents.

Coco, I agree again. Frogfish rule!! They're one of the fish that reall makes me wish I had a large FOWLR tank. Hermits+snails should be ok with them. They are aggressive towards each other tho. Maybe a dwarf lion, scorpionfish, or a leaf fish in exchange for one of those frogs.

Coco, I couldn't have said it better. I have heard so many damn people come into the lfs I work at and talk all big and bad about how their 20 gallon oscar habitat is awesome or how his undulate, clown, and assai trigger beat the crap out of his damsels in his 30 gallon. I hate ppl like that...

Becky, you said that your lfs recommended a skilter as the best filter you can buy? I'm sorry to say but you really shouldnt take their advice anymore. Those things are crap!!! The only filter/skimmer combo I would recommend is the CPR bakpak, which I personally use and love. I would really say...

What are your water parameters? I would always check them fisrt before you start putting blame on tankmates. I really doubt a hermit could catch a fish. My friend kept a red-leg hermit about the size of a softball in a tank with a cardinal, a scooter blenny, and a blue damsel without problems...

Lawnmowers and their close relatives the bicolor blenny are both great at eating hair algae.(and caulerpa trust me on that!) I had a bicolor once and it really was one of my fav. fish. Unfortunately, my heater broke and electrcuted all the fish in that tank but, while he lasted he was awesome...

Matt- cowfish get around a foot long!!!! They are very hard to keep because when they get stressed out they release a toxin into the water which nukes the tank!!! Really, now more suitable fish would be maybe gobies, clownfish, or other small fish. What I would suggest is a neon goby, citron...

Thanks for reminding me. Rock beuties always grow real nice and big and then decide eating just isnt that great of a concept. Cleaners and Idols just don't work out either.

Just a personal list of fish that shouldnt be kept in captivity: Bicolor Angel Regal Angel Vlaminghi Tang<-gets way too big Most sharks Most rays Sweetlips Atlantic Green Moray Eels Wild-Caught Seahorses and Pipefish Ribbon Eels Naussau Groupers The Following Butterflys: Phillipene Gold stripe...

Salty I know that blennies and dragonettes are differant fish that is was it was on the list as and that is the only name I have for it. Sorry about the confusion. I agree with Grouper in that a better name for it would be a sailfin dragonette.

Hello everyone just a quick question and possible help in my search for information. I work at an LFS and recently my manager who orders SW fish and me were goin thru the price lists and saw a newcomer... an Dragonette Blenny. Doing the usual"hey! sounds cool lets order one!" When it came in it...

Yeah the eraser sized spiral ones the crowns on them are red kinda cool.

Does anyone else have hard tube worms growing on their glass? I used to scrape algae on all the sides of my tank but I let the back go for 2 weeks and these guys just appeared! I also noticed a few on my LR. I hope these guys get big like the ones I see in my lfs! Theyre so cool I love my...

They eat anything and I mean anything! At my LFS we had to put one(2in) in a tank with a queen angel(8in) and the undulate beat the crap out of the angel luckily we sold some fish and emptied a tank of inhabitants before he killed that poor angel. One customer in my store has a 150 with 6 giant...

Just two words:Harlequin Tusk! Also the anthias would rule or maybe a ton of firefish or chromis. Put tons o' mushrooms anemones everywhere to cover the LR with life.

yeah the black tubastrea its cool lookin
