LionFish says..... Thanks for all the info guys. These fish are one of the few I haven't studied on in the last 7 years. So, it looks like a got 2 for the BlackCap and 2 for the Royal Gramma. Hmmmm..... what are the pros and cons of these fish. Has anyone had personal experience with BlackCaps...

LionFish says..... Well, I must say I found a fish that really intrigues me. I need some info on the little guy. My LFS got the first one in the last 4 years(I live in Michigan C'mon). They are extremely rare around my neck of the woods, unfortunately. Since we only have one saltwater store in...

LionFish says...... Well, I suppose there is a chance that it is possible but I don't like the Tangs chances with a Trigger. Triggers have a very aggressive disposition in any tank no matter what the size is. Tangs are not wimpy little fish but if you compare them to a Trigger they wouldn't...

LionFish says..... I have never had a marroon clown before but I have had several Perculas. They all seem to like Flakes the most. They also take frozen brine shrimp. I often check to see what my LFS feeds the fish before I buy it. Then I buy the food that my LFS feeds it. That seems to work the...

LionFish says..... Thanks for all the info guys. I have decided to buy the Emperor in early summer. I will be exteremly careful in acclimating it. I think I will try a Naso Tang with it, or possibly an Achilles. I'm glad to hear a success story from someone. TJ, it is promising to hear that your...

LionFish says..... Glad you asked Veskas. But I'm already ahead of you. I have studied these magnificent Angels for about 2 years and I have already decided to be very cautious with Tangs. I'm actually debating which Tang to get. I like Nasos but they get really big. I think I may get a Blue...

LionFish says..... Man, how long ago do I post this topic? Oh well, thanks for all the info on them. And to Trey. I understand what you're saying but I can keep an Emperor in good condition. I have studied up on these fish for a long time. I know that they're not easy to keep but I've been in...

LionFish says..... I would say I am lucky as well. I get my RO water at $.25 a gallon. I think that is a great price.

LionFish says..... Nascar is my favorite sport to watch. It is a saddening shock to all who love Nascar. My sympathy and prayers go out to the Earnhardt family. It really was a Black Sunday.

LionFish says..... Well, if it were up to me there would probably way too many sharks. Unfortunately there has to be a set limit to how many moderators there are on the site. I think you are qualified to be a shark. There probably will be new sharks in the near future but until then, keep...

LionFiish says..... Well, I have been in the Freshwater business for a much longer time than I have been in the Marine hobby. I have 2 Cichlid tanks and I have had them destroy some of my favorite fish. Just curious but what fish was it?

LionFish says..... I've had some of my Lions live 6+ years. And some of my FreshWater Angelfish have gotten to be 10 years and one is 12 years old.

LionFish says..... Thanks Salty. I am planning on getting 50 pounds of live rock and I already have 20 pounds of it in the tank I'm converting right now so I should have about 70 pounds. I have to get about 4 inches of live sand because I have a Sleeper Goby and they require a thick sand bed...

LionFish says..... Hey guys, I need some help from you equipment experts. I'm setting up my new 50 gallon reef tank and it seems to me that I just don't have enough equipment. All I have is a Protien Skimmer, 2 PowerSweep Powerheads, and a submersible heater. Is there going to be anything else...

LionFish says..... I wouldn't try it Jess. It could become a war between those fish and the triggers would win. You will probably have to upgrade soon because those fish get really big.

LionFish says..... Hey Jess. I would like to know what size the tank is. If it is smaller than a 150 gallon tank I wouldn't try it.

LionFish says..... Well, gotta hand it to you Salty. That tank is pretty impressive. Nice mixture of fish, too.

LionFish says..... Thanks for all the posts guys. It has really helped me. The Emperor will be alone in a 70 gallon for about 6-8 months. I'm going to let him get used to the surroundings and let him grow to be at least four inches. He is only 1 inch right now. After that long time period I will...

LionFish says..... Thanks for the help guys. I understand what is needed for these fish to thrive. I always keep good water conditions and I always have a Wet* Dry filter, a Skimmer and a U.V. Sterilizer on all my large tanks. I've heard they can be quite delicate and they aren't for the novice...

LionFish says..... I went down to the LFS today to see their new shipment. They got a lot of inverts and fish today. One of these fish really caught my eye. It was an Emperor Angel. I asked the guy there what size tank I could keep him in. He told me that my 70 gallon would be fine for awhile...
