    Eel Feeding

    I feed my snowflake about every other day and feed him until he no longer wants to eat. He knows when he's full and will quit eating. For those that say a SFE won't eat another fish needs to see it in person. They will wrap their body around a fish and smother it then eat it. That's why I...

    is my firends xeina done for or is this normal?

    If it's going to die it's going to die...not trying to be negative, but like everyone has said let it go for a few days and see what happens. They're pretty hardy corals. If they don't make it you need to find out what perimeters are off. Was it acclimated at all?

    I Need Help

    I agree with murph..I also use phosguard in baggies. but you have to use enough to do the job. It will tell you on the bottle. And too how much you feed at a time. overfeeding is probably one of the easiest things to do. Just because everytime you walk up to your aquarium and the fish act...

    Yellow Tang

    Have you ever watched your TANG..(sorry 'bout that )swim? they are like marathon swimmers and speed is one of their strong points. Just another reason for a larger tank is they need room to move.....at the speeds they move a large tang can run into the sides of the tank, live rock, etc. They...

    Moorish Idol

    These guys aren't trying to make you mad, but you've got to understand most have done the research before buying their fish. It's true you can go to your LFS and they may have a very low priced exotic fish. OK, think...why is someone selling a $80+ dollar fish for $40? Several reasons the...

    New-need guidance

    IMO you need at least 1+ pounds of live rock per gallon of water. I take it your tank has cycled..have you tested your water? be especially careful not to add too many of these fish at the same time. When I stocked my tank I added one fish at a time about a month apart. Takes a while but...
