For my 1 gal pico, which crab would be the best one. Pom Pom Crab or Porcelain Crab Will either of these get along in groups of 2 in this size of tank?? Do they get along with other hermit crabs??

Yes that is correct, and you will have a mini cycle like mentioned. Also add all the water, sand etc from the old tank too. Have your new water ready to go as well. I did this a few times and there was not problems at all, (water, sand, fish etc all go in) Good luck....

I have the green clown goby in my pico tank. This is my second goby, the first one I got was very very tiny and was in my 10 gal tank and it did not last long. I think the shrimp got a hold of it but they can be very touchy to feed and make sure they get enough food. They are very tiny when full...

Thanks for the kind compliments, usually one gets frowned upon when we post these kinds of little tanks. I actually don't have any troubles at all. I am treating it much like my 10 gal I use to have. I do weekly water changes on it, keep the water topped up each day, feed the goby and all is...

He is actually not as big when you see him. I think that plexi glass makes things look bigger when you photograph through it. But he is a nice size and not those tiny gaunt ones you so often see at the stores. Eats well all frozen and flake foods.

I had one in my 10 gal for a while. He was quite the character and quite bold. He would keep everyone away from his den (the whole bottom of the tank). Mine did stir up the sand a bit but nothing compared to what a clownfish can do. They are cute and fun and they do not need a deep sand bed nor...

What is the best way to remove the hard algae on plexi glass without scratching it?? Also will a toothbrush to use on the sides of the plexi glass to keep it clean scratch it??

Would the 50/50 give a nicer light for corals??

Have a question about my current light On my 1 gal pico i have a 7 watt 7300k PC that it came with. i also have the option to replace it with a 50/50 7300K. My quesiton is: will I have the same amount of light from a 50/50 as I do with the normal one that is in there right now?? Which would be...

Okay, I would like to know how you take those beautiful pics?? Do you photograph from the top down, through the tank glass?? Mine is so tiny but I would still like to get a picture of it. I use a Canon S5

I will try this question here in hopes of a reply. Anyone have an electric orange hermit crab?? Are they reef safe and how big do they get?? Nice color or not??

Anyone have the Electric Orange Hermit Crabs?? Are they reef safe and friendly with other crabs?? Is their color nice or drab??

oh I love those ones they sure are neat. What type of light makes zoas show their color so nice??

Wow that 100 gal was beautiful. Sorry to hear about it breaking, looks like you are well on your way to a very nice tank again though.

Very beautiful tank and yes you can have a nice tank with crushed coral if you vacum it. Sand is so much easier. Do you still have this lovely tank?? QUOTE=Stanlalee;2692959]I had a flourishing 30g reef with no problems using crush coral. You have to vacuum it (I did it every water change...

You want to make sure that your salt is dissolved really well first before adding it to your tank. So when you have fish in there and need to do a water change you must make sure that it is dissolved in your new water before adding it to your tank. Before you add the sand in there when you get...

what is an hob filter? If you look up Aqua Clear filters that is a HOB filter and there are many other brands too. I plan on using live rock people say that that would be enough. I do have the bak pak bio filter/protien skimmer. That should be okay then too, I am not familiar with them but have...

Don't get discouraged, you need to take things slowly and if in doubt do post questions here first before going out to buy anything that way you will not be disappointed. If you bought the undergravel filter from the LFS see if you can take it back for a HOB filter instead. The crushed coral...
