    Harlequin Tusk! Let me see them!

    that australian one is beautiful. the first pic what they have at the lfs btw, i read at wet web media that: "Although this fish is pricey, such an investment is well-warranted in a long-lived, disease-resistant, easy-to-feed key species for your fish-only marine tank. This is almost guaranteed...

    Harlequin Tusk! Let me see them!

    i knew it was an indo. i think live aquaria has the two different tusks next to them and the australian is darker in orange and has more blue, the tail is also different; the australian seems to have red on it while the indo's is clear. still a great looking fish though. even then, at LA theyre...

    can't find yellow wrasse

    i knew a guy who had a wrasse buried in the sand for one month before it came out. he thought it had died long ago. my yellow wrasse went missing for a day and a half and then popped out to inspect everything. once he hides he hides the rest of the day until the next. usually comes out at the...

    Harlequin Tusk! Let me see them!

    my lfs has the indian ocean kind and theyre not that bright in color though. theyre very shy. im thinking of adding a harlequin and a heniochus and have small 3-5" inch fish, but not too many. never had a fowlr before but the selection in fish is better than if i had a reef.

    Flame Angelfish

    im sure youll be alright. i think they mainly pick at the rocks to eat copepods and any other small things they like to sample. 125 will be perfect for these guys. i cant tell you on the aggression since there is always a chance between them, but most have said as long as theyre added at the...

    Flame Angelfish

    probably need a mature tank because theyre grazers. they like looking at the rockwork and pick at things. very active fish and i wouldnt recommend them in anything smaller than a 55. its incredible how fast they go from one end to the other end looking for things on the rock and buzzing in and...

    Should I raise my MH lighting?

    so whats the point of buying an AIO tank if you have to have the hood raised 12 inches off the water? you might as well take the MH out of the hood or just get a sunpod or something

    I am SICK of sand!!!

    i dont know what size tank you have, 75? but i have the same one. friends told me that rocks wont crack the bottom but just be careful about it. one thing you can do is go to lowe's and buy fiberglass rods and cut them, drill holes in them and stack them like that youll like it a lot better...

    aiptasia on my hammer coral?

    my bc14 has had an explosion of aiptasias. first there were just two large ones but since i tried using aiptasia X, more popped up i just noticed i have a couple of them that appeared on my hammer coral. whats the safest way of removing them without damaging the tissue on the hammer? theyre...

    My 60g reef

    i would say those LPS corals, the ones on the sandbed, are bleached. same thing happened to me until i gave it to a friend and it recovered. i had too much lighting for it

    clownfish bully

    both shake or just 1? are they both the same size? can you see if one is smaller than the other? usually the larger one is trying to establish dominance; when you see the smaller one shake, its trying to tell the dominant fish (the female) that it wont give it problems and that itll be...

    --- changing and clownfish

    theyll start killing each other or get together to harass the ones singled out. you might pull it off if you have a lot in a small environment, but more than likely someone will die off
