These neomeris are crazy now, haven't multiplied yet but are almost a 1 1/2 - 2 inches long. When the pic was taken they were probably about 3/8-1/2 inch long. I am starting to dig the way they look.

Originally Posted by Flower My clowns rub their bellys on the back wall to dislodge the algae and then eat it as it comes off. LOL that is exactly what mine does. My smaller one does this, the larger one just kind of stays to himself. But yeah, he will either hit it with his belly or tail...

Originally Posted by srfisher17 Clowns will eat algae (almost all fish will eat the algae sheets). Clowns are omnivores and need some veggies in their diet. Cool, thanks. I have never seen him pecking the wall until recently and was wondering if he was just mimicking her doing it.

Do false percula clowns eat algea? I didn't think they did but I keep seeing mine peck on the back wall of the tank where algea is growing. I am not sure if he is eating it or copying my hippo tang cause she is pecking and eating all over it. Maybe he thinks he is just suppost to smack his...

I was reading another thread and it said you can use limestone as baserock. Can you? I thought that limestone would be high in bad things that would spike your tank. Also where is a good place to find base rock or what is the best thing to use for baserock? I do not want to have to cycle...

It is at the bottom of the tank. It has started to open up finally! All looks well.

I just bought a small frag yesterday and put in my tank. Is it normal for it to stay closed up for a few days?

Originally Posted by Indy2009 I have 2 plus a carpet anemone never ate any of my fish, don't house it in a tank that is too small, they grow quickly and you may have some issues.. I have a 55 gallon. It is fairly small now, smaller than my fist when full size. I will probably have to get rid...

Should I be concerned about my florida condi anemone eating my fish? I have had one for about a week now, my second one and it seems to be doing great. Talked to someone at LFS today and they said that the condis will kill and eat my fish. I looked on here at the description of the Florida...

Guys, what is the best way to acclimate a Florida Condi anemone? Should I leave the lights off for awhile? Float the bag and add some of my water to it for a couple of hours? Any help would be appreciated.

Originally Posted by Beth You very likely have ich that will soon pop up in full bloom. Yes, use fresh garlic, crushing it and letting meaty food soak in it for a few mins, then feed it to the fish. Your LFS should have a variety of frozen foods that you can also offer your fish. Right now I...

Originally Posted by my obsession My Blue Tang got that a couple of weeks ago and I fed it seaweed soaked in garlic. It cleared up in a couple of days. Do I just buy minced or crushed garlic and soak the food in the juice?

Originally Posted by Beth Netting is generally risky business and often causes eye injury and eye infections. How long have you had this fish? Have you seen white spots in other places on the body, fins? A diet of mostly mysis is not nutritionally adequate. You should vary the diet more...

Originally Posted by jackri Hard to say without pic but probably ich.. could be a bacterial infection or even early pop eye.. but my guess would be a mild case of ich (if there is ever such a thing) Freshwater dip wouldn't cause this, stress -- ich parasite -- weakened immune system can. Keep...

I have lived near Atlanta all my life and finally made it to the Georgia Aquarium. If you have not been then you need to plan a trip! It was amazing! An absolutly beautiful huge reef! If you can go make the trip!!
