I think they are beautiful and majestic-very hard to safely keep in aquariums-sure wish I could... :happyfish

OK Please tell me what it means when you " bump"? As far as your anemone-mine do that after they have eaten-perfectly normal-they also like silversides-especially if you want them to grow big and split-I started with one very small one and now have 5.

Hello! I am not sure about what fish to add-not familiar with your fish and which ones may be compatible but you have a good size tank so I am sure you should be able to add some nice fish! Hopefully some experts here will help! :happyfish :happyfish

:notsure: PH & alkalinity--a sw enthusiasts nightmare!! How do you get it right?? I wish I knew!!!

The king of my tank....

How do you know what size phosban reactor to get? Are there different sizes? Thankyou!

Love your little doggie! Nice tank-great rock-and (I am going to say it)I think the yellow will be ok.... :happyfish

:cheer: Beautiful fish!! So many different kinds! :happyfish :happyfish

Sounds like you are doing right--going very slowly!! Add slowly and do parameters after adding anything-let your tank adjust - and then keep adding slowly and checking parameters. Thats the safest way to go and will save you lots of grief and money and save any animals from going into a tank...

Peanut worm? If so I think its harmless-need help from the experts!!!

Agree with all above--guilty here too of cycling the wrong way.. Very very bad thing. So hopefully we can keep others from making the same mistake! And as its been said patience is the key. The longer it takes to get your cycle correct the better off your tank will be. :happyfish :happyfish

WOW! Yes they are pretty hardy fish-I have a similar story about my bird wrasse-when the lfs guy was getting him out of his little cubicle he jumped out too-onto the floor at the store-awful! But hes a strong little fish and did fine! Also his body was a little curved at first from being in that...

Originally Posted by Choco Just for the heck of it, I took some pictures of what it looks like under my tank and found some weird life going on. Bristles--good scavengers and help clean the sand. Some say they eat fish? Not sure about that Guess it depends on how big they get! Love your...
