these two were actually in seperate tanks. I bought 2 from the same tank, but when i got them home i realized one of the clowns was all nipped so i took him back the same day and they only had ones from a different tank. They are small clowns (a inch to maybe 1 1/2 inches from head to tip of...

I have 2 false percula clowns that i've had for about a month now. I bought them at the same time and they were getting along great. (swimming together etc). In the past week maybe the one has become really aggressive toward the other. Chasing it around and forcing to basically hide out all day...

i still dont agree thats its AIP 100%, is it colorful or just a plain white? I have small dusters all over my tank, but most of them are greenish in color. All the AIP I have seen is white in color.

i dont know... it looks like it might be a small feather duster. The picture isnt great so its hard to tell. A good way to find out is run you hand by it and if it disappears back into the rock its just a feather duster and are actually filter feeders and good. if not its probably aptaisia and...

from my personal experiance with those type of corals give them a little bit of time. My xenia was doing good then i moved it to a different location and it looked horrible for about a week and now its just booming! i would raise the salinty like tim said, but just give it some time and maybe...

i have a sebae w/ an anemone crab that hosts it. will the crab hosting prevent my clowns from hosting?

i bought my unit off *-****for around 120 w/ shipping. works great! units offered by companies like Kent are good units, but you are paying for the name. there are many more options available for cheaper that are often much better. (more stages, RO/DI instead of just RO)

ugh!!! i can just keep praying the city will come in and put in sewer/water! I bought land in a small town thats surrounded by a bigger city. If i go like 1/2 mile to the east they have city water/sewer. Thats a good idea though, my plan is to use the storage area behind the tank to store...

I just bought a property that doesn't have city water and sewer hook-up so i have a septic system. This will be my first time using septic over city water/sewer and i know you have to watch the water you use so you dont overflow your septic systems. does anyone have a septic system w/ a larger...

just curious.... if there isn't anywhere around have you considered just buying a RO/DI system? in the long run its MUCH better

Originally Posted by goodwin9 I'm not an expert, but I think that I have both green and blue green in one of my tanks and they get along just fine. For the most part, they seem to mix well. well i got my fish and they are all getting along great... my clowns even think they are chromis and...

I have 2 false percula's and 9 blue/green chromis in my tank and my clowns swim around with the chromis like they are part of the school. is this normal? i dont ever see them trying to nip at the chromis or anything just swiming with them

ok... i have 3 blue-green chromis i bought from the LFS and just ordered 4 green chromis from SWF.com that are actually at my house right now. I thought they were the same. I'll let you know if they get along. i have my fingers crossed!

I just got two new clowns and want them to have the bright orange color. is there any foods that are better at giving color? or maybe something i should look for? or any type of food they like more than others? (flake, mysis shrimp, shrimp pellets etc.)

they are under green chromis on SWF.com

the temp isn't that big of a deal... its the swings in temp that is my concern. if you water keeps going up to 83, set your heater for like 82 so it stays in the 82-83 range. you dont want the 5 degree changes everyday because unlike what TX Reef said, the ocean temp is VERY constant (except...

I have 30+ crabs and a 5 peppermint shrimp and one fire shrimp. i am very lucky and have almost zero algae in my tank (i think its due to my RO/DI, phose-lock, and macro-algae in my fuge). My worry is they are starving because the crabs seem to be dissapearing. (my levels are all PERFECT) What...
