I don't blame the crab for the goby's death, I just caught him cleaning up after it. Thank you, everyone, for your condolences.

Found part of the goby's little body this morning. Fishing dead stuff out of my tank is not a good way to start my morning. I have been dealing with all sorts of macro algae in my tank, likely due to having my lights on for 14-15 hours per day (I work 12 hours a day and I like to see my...

WOW!!!! I can't believe how great it looks!!! The stain is really a beautiful color. And it looks like a professionally made, and very expensive, piece of furniture! (Gosh, I miss my cheering smiley! ) I'm glad to see you finally got your doors. I've been more of a "lurker" than a...

I came home from work today and couldn't find my twinspot goby. Within a few minutes I located my emerald crab hiding behind a rock with my goby's head. It's been several hours and he's still holding onto it for dear life. The rest of my goby's body is still missing. Rest in peace, my dear...

Grew up in St. Joseph, MO, now live in Arizona (far, far away from snow)

Take a water sample to lfs and have them test for phosphates. I'm dealing with red hair algae, bubble algae, and a few different types of macro algae. I have a veritable algae farm! I had my water tested, and sure enough, my PO4 is high. I use pre-mixed saltwater from lfs, so I know my water...

Wow! Fabulous pics!!! Did you use a tripod?

Great Mother's Day gift! My boyfriend gave me an RO unit for Christmas (yes, he is quite the romantic ) along with a promise to install it for me. I even had an RO conduit put in when I built the house to make installation easy. It's the middle of May and it's still in the box . I hope...

I think my fireshrimp may be a little more boring than yours. He just hangs out all day on a rock under the feeding area. In fact, he moves so little that he has algae growing on him. Yep, his white spots eventually turn brownish-green until he molts again, and he even had some macro algae...

She doesn't do this anywhere near feeding time, so I don't think so (unless she's feeding it regurgitated mysis, but I haven't seen anything transferred during the peck).

I have 2 juvenile false percs and one of them has been seen "kissing" a couple of my mushrooms on the mouth. There's about 3 different colors of shrooms on this one rock, but she only bothers the green ones. They're just plain 'shrooms, nothing fuzzy, frilly, or fancy. She will hover an inch...

Also, I'll add that other than 1 snail death early on, I have had no other deaths in my tank!

The first one was floated in a bag in the tank for about 2 hours, then I added about 1/4 cup tank water every 20-30 minutes for another 2 hours. The second one was floated for about an hour, then I added water every 20-30 min for another 2 hours.

About a month ago I bought a blue-spotted sea hare to help with my various algae infestations. Within 48 hours it was dead. I took it back to LFS (gotta love their livestock guarantee!) with a water sample. After they determined my water to be fine, they told me there would be one in the next...

Those are gorgeous!!!!!! I love the third one in the first set of pics. Are they actually that color or was the color somehow enhanced in the pic?

Deciding that your boyfriend is "a keeper" because he understands and accepts that the tank gets fed before he does. Explaining to people my philosophy of "if it has a mouth, it gets fed" and then watching their look of pure disbelief when I tell them I call it the "No Zoanthid Left Behind"...

Your aquascaping is fabulous! It looks so natural!
