I love wrasses. Fairy wrasse's are gorgeous and swim all over. I'd recommend adding more types of food, for your current and future fish. A mix of mysis, brine, chopped formula one, and mussels is what I feed. Any algae for your tangs?

It probably is growing. It can be hard to tell it's growing, but one day you'll notice that it's like taking over your refuge. It might help to fluff it up a bit, as it might b getting denser without appearing to grow. I think ruffling it a bit is good for growth overall. Is it keeping your...

Valentini and hawaiian blue spotteds are about the same size. I've heard of them in reefs, but I would not get too attached to any shrimp. Same for hermits, but they're pretty cheap so you can get more if you want them. No idea about corals.

Take them back I guess depending on your set up you could move some rocks around... might work. As long as it isn't violent picking, you could give it a few days and see if things settle down.

Originally Posted by fish master yes, water is fine. i put him in tank, was swimming around but found a spot now hes just staying in that one spot. think he is a little scared.but i think he is ok Exactly what mine did. Resist your urge to poke him or anything until he starts swimming around...

The music sounds about right to me... and don't underestimate... um... i guess people who really like video games. I saw this band once that played the music to mega-man as one of the band members played the game. It was pretty neat. He beat the game in like 15 minutes, but that was a live...

In my experience (with two hawaiian blues) these fish have a strong stress reaction to acclimation/transportation and what not. ASSUMING your parameters are good and the fish is being acclimated properly, it may be the fish freaking out. Darken the room and minimize noise (and shaking of...

It's quite big, you know. I'd put a black background on my tank.

micro fauna = tiny fauna copepods are such

Just be sure that it's easting at your LFS. I'd get a small one b/c it's fun to watch them grow.

Dead, eaten, or hiding. Brittle star could have eaten it, though I'm not sure if the type you have eats shrimp. If your tank is larger than 20 gallons or so, it's entirely possible that it's just not currently visible.

Hillary. It's the perfect follow-up to Bush. One extreme to the other. This way we'll be sure half of the country still hates the president, which is what I've learned is the most important aspect of our political process.

My coralife came with a sponge thing that goes in the tank over the return pipe. Or at least that's what I think it's for. I don't use it, but I believe it's to reduce bubbles from a very bubbly skimmer.
