I broke down and bombed the apartment. I couldn't take it. Every room i went into at least 2 fleas would jump me. If i sat still five or six. I would be killing them two at a time and they still kept coming. Im proud to say 4 hours later the tanks are alive and kicking. The worst thing i...

If you want a lobster get a purple lobster.

I think corals bleach when undo stress is placed on them. Find out how long the lights were left on. Leaving the corals at such a high temperature over a long period will certainly cause them to be stressed.

Alrighty. It just has sand basically. I think the tank is custom. Its at least 4 feet if not 5 or 6. My guess is its at least 100 gallons. Ill find out more next time i go. There is a little bit of rock in the back and I can't remember but i think i saw a starfish. I've only seen him...

I've heard that rates for skimmers are rough estimates and at times should be treated alot lower than whats stated IE a prizm skimmer says 90 gallons.... so you should go higher. It doesn't hurt to have pristine water.

Eggy don't pollute the water. Unless you have other things to eat that food it will just sit an rot and cause more harm than good. Just keep your eye out for them. Look for moltings. They go translucent at night so look hard or you might miss them. I don't feed mine and he's been in my tank...

A new LFS here has a 6 year old idol. GORGEOUS.... He gets fed five or six times a day and is in the tank by himself. They also have a ten year old moray eel and other full size fish.

maybe if yo uget them as both babies and from different seas. That will help....

Your ph is fine. Slightly high but so long as its stable i wouldnt worry about it. A good kh will prevent drastic swings in ph btw. As far as temp goes leave the fans on 24/7. Water temperature that high is dangerous and you can loose your things if it stays that high. It probably is to...

Peppermints are nocturnal so you won't see them about except at night. If you can find their hiding spot during the day.....

It could also be feeding off of your live rock. If your live rock had alot of waste initially all that will eventaully become nitrates which algae likes as well. Get some mexican turbos to clean/eat it if your levels check out.

You can buy, precultured beneficial bacteria that will help bring those levels down. Around here its called BIOZYME but i think something called Cycle will do it too. It might be good to have it for situations like this anyways..... What lighting did you have on the tank? Aside from the poor...

HAHHA. At least he isn't descriminating. Ya book i have says they may pick on gobies or anything even remotely similar. Just keep an eye on the goby. Make sure the blenny eats. You may want to buy some sheets of algae to leave in the tank for him to eat. They love algae. Buy a clip for...

She's got advantage. But it doesn't seem to do crap.... I drowned (cup of water) about 30 fleas the other day....

Lucky you. Mine love to jump tube after months then shrivel up and die.

The neon? Its most likely because the neon is similarly shaped. If you just got the blenny then he's just establishing territory. Your tank IS big enough to support the two. Some bickering may occur. BUT what you must watch for are torn fins and cuts on the sides. Then you know things are...

With the neon most likely yes. The clown can hold his own. The bicolor is just establishing territory. They like to hide in "their" spot so you wont see him much. How big is the tank? If its less than 20 then your neon may be killed.....

nah keep them.... If you just got the emerald then several things could have happened. He could have starved, acclimated improperly, or tried to molt and was attacked. I just bought an emerald and he just died..... No reason. My guess is he starved. Not because of my tank but from where i...

If the rock is all brown or cream colored its dead. If it was in "fresh" water then there is nothing on the rock or in the sand. All you need is a good piece of fresh live rock(i'd say a good 5-10 lb piece) and a couple months and it will all spread to the rest of your tank. I would...

the id is goniopora. Yeah you overstocked but if nobody is killing eachother then hey.... You did a good job of picking varying stock though.
