Thanks for the help.

Looking for ideas for a good filter for a 10g Nano. I have an Aquatic Life 115 skimmer in there at the moment, but I need some sort of mechanical filtration. I currently have two damsels, a spot tailed blenny, a couple of peppermint shrimp and about 6 snails. Also I have about 8 lbs of live...

One of my friends was moving this weekend and was offering me some of his fish since he was starting from scratch when he moved into his new house. I took a filefish and some live rock but was unable to take a big 5-6" Yellow Tang since I had one in my 125 already and didn't want to deal with...

That's what I've been reading. I'm looking at a way to isolate them and frag them also.

Upon further research, it looks like what they refer to as blue snowflake polyps https://www.saltwaterfish.com/Aquacultured-Blue-Snowflake-Polyps--Limit-1_p_3882.html

A lfs tossed in a tiny frag a few months back when I made a purchase. It has grown considerably since and I've been trying to figure out what it is. It was smaller than the size of a dime. It looks like a small clump of purple "flowers". Anybody have an idea what this is? This is what it...

I'm not sure what kind of filefish. I haven't seen his tank in a while.

I have a couple in my 125 that get along just fine. I like those Palys , what color are they?

I figured as much for the yellow tang. What about the file fish? Sent from my overpriced iPod Touch using Tapatalk

A friend of mine is breaking down his tank and is offering me his fish. I have a 125 gal with softies. He is giving me a yellow tang and a file fish. My current stocklist is; 1- blue tang 1 yellow tang 5 blue / green chromis 1 Malanarrus wrasse 1 McCosker's wrasse 1 lawnmower blenny 2...

what type of live stock do you have in the tank? Stocklist: Blue hippo tang Yellow tang Ocellaris clowns Blue/green chromis Mallanarus wrasse orange anthias Mccosker's wrasse Purple firefish Banghai Cardinalfish hermits and snails

I have spaghetti worms all over the tank and was wondering what kind of fish would get rid of the majority of them. I've been doing water changes and feeding less to try to lessen the amount but it seems that some extra help is needed.

Would you consider it a good way to get rid of bubble algae?

So would you say that it would be counterproductive to have one in a setup with a fuge?

Interesting. I can see this happening. Well the male didn't make it, he was too badly beat up. I guess the next one will have to be a female if this one has made the change. Thanks for all the input. Sent using Tapatalk mobile

I've had a female orange Anthias for about a month now. I purchased a red male on Thursday and ever since, she's been chasing him all over the tank and leaving him cowering in a corner all day long. Other than putting him in my quarantine tank, what can I do to alleviate this?

I have been setting up a 20 gal brute can as an ATO when I leave out of town and it's worked just fine. From what I'm noticing, the amount of top off is no where as drastic as it was in the summer. I just want to make sure I have all my bases covered beforehand. I'll be doing a small water...

I'll be going on vacation soon and was wondering if an automatic feeder would do the job while I'm gone. I usually feed my fish twice a day, frozen in the morning and flakes in the evening. Would they be alright with just flakes and pellets for two weeks? I have a neighbor who is willing to...

Your best bet for QTing is to use your tank water to set up the QT and to do water changes (as long as that water is excellent). Changing out about a gal a day is a good practice. This way, when it comes time to transfer fish over to the display, the water is near the same, and you minimize...

Yesterday after acclimating my yellow tang, I reached in with my hand to pull him out and place him in my tank and remembered just in time about the spines.
