    mandarin dragonette problem!~

    I have been an avid reef keeper for about 10 years, and made an advanced reefkeeper's similar mistake... I have a 150 acrylic reef (200-250lbs rock) which has been established for YEARS. It had pods all over the place, so about a year ago I felt it would be humane to add a mandarin to the reef...

    Powder Blue/Powder Brown Tangs

    They are both from the same genus (Acanthrus) and they will most likely fight. Try to avoid tangs with the same sillhouette.

    I'm Looking for reefworms and more....

    I'm in Baltimore, and have alot of small stars. No, not the sps eaters, but the herbivores. I'll give them to you, but you gotta come and get them. Don't put 2 Lawnmower Blennies (Salaris faciatus) together, they will fight.

    Compatable?

    Clown Triggers are aggressive fish. I can assure you they are not compatible.

    Compatable?

    The Clown Trigger will probably kill the Heniochus and the Maroon Clown. If the clown survives the trigger, its a matter of time before the Miniatus eats the clown. Skip the Clown Trigger and be ready to move the grouper as it's size increases.

    When did this happen? customsealife

    Current is NOT part of Custom Sea Life. Many of the CSL "big wigs" started Current, so in essence its the same company, but without the liability that comes with CSL inc. CSL was basically sued out of business.

    Adding the skimmer is a must. You CAN do it your way, but keep a good eye on your water quality and keep the bioload low.

    Can anyone provide proof that UV kills ick

    I am looking for someone who can show me scientific evidence that ultraviolet irradiatin IN THE HOME AQUARIUM will kill C. irritans (SW ick/ich). All of my training and calculations show that the dwell time inside the sterilizer would have to be "a crazy long time". I have contacted many UV...

    Copperband and Heniochus fish get along?

    Are you saying that fish of the FAMILY Chaetodontidae can't be kept together? Don't you mean GENUS or SPECIES? If so, where did you get that information?
