    Seahorse in the Nursing Home

    Well, she's still floating, vertical thank goodness. Still hitches to the heater to sleep. I still have to lead her to the feeding station, but have figured out how to hitch her to the rock, so she gets plenty to eat. I'm not sure what more to do. She still looks fine (?) It's a pretty bizarre...

    wrasse for flat worms

    I think you would all be surprised. Without your various wrasse, you would have more bristle/flatworms. MO is that they keep the young worm population under control. Don't underestimate the effect they have. The fact that they hunt is a mixed good/bad sign. Wrasse, in my experience, are an...

    Need opinions on coralline color

    It is quite solid, but looks..radioactively..orange. How mature are your tanks? I have been discussing upgrading as a remedy. I'm very tired.

    Need opinions on coralline color

    The algae in the dead center of this photo is bright orange under actinics(only) surrounded by the deep red that you see. Is this a healthy state? My gut tells me something is too much.. :notsure: Or is it not coralline at all?

    Tomato colwn tanksize?

    When I bought my tomato clown 5+ years ago, I had a ten gallon. Upgraded to a 20 and now a 55. She has grown to about 4", as xdave said. I have to say, at the size she is now, I can't imagine her in a 20. Maybe if she was the only fish..but that's pretty lonely.
