    fish deaths after moving the tank

    That is some good information. I am always putting my hands in my tank. I need to get some gloves. I always thought that they looked like they were more trouble than they are worth. What do you guys recommend for gloves, disposable or regular ones?

    fish deaths after moving the tank

    IMO - it is possible that the fish were sick when you bought them. Chromis are cheap and are a nice fish that likes to school. I recommend those instead of a damsel because you probably won't want the damsel later cause they get mean. I would try 2 chromis. HOWEVER if your tank had ich then...

    Favia receeding?

    What would make my favia start receeding? I have had him for about 4 months and he had some skeleton showing when I bought him. I thought I could help him out. Now he is showing some skeleton in new areas. What can I do? He is in medium/light flow - 130 watt PC 50/50 bulbs. I feed the tank...

    skimmer question

    HI all - I have a CPR Bak Pak skimmer and for some reason it doesn't seem to be pulling anything out of the water any more. I even added a airstone to it to help out some. The only time it ever pulls anything out is if I feed a bunch. Is this normal? I usually only have to empty it once a...

    fish deaths after moving the tank

    Well I am not sure that anyone has answered your question. I think you are seeking information as to why your fish died am I correct? If that is the case then were there any signs of disease? Did you have the fish when you moved and have them somewhere and then put them in the cycled tank or...

    BANG - question

    No, I do not know the gender. I don't really want to buy a few fish and have to take them back. My fish store is really not that close to me so I don't think that is a good plan in my case. I like mine and want to keep him. Here are some pictures

    BANG - question

    I have 1 Banggai and I would like to have one more. Would it be ok at add one or be better to add 2? Should I just leave him alone? I have no idea of the gender. I will post a picture, in a while, so if u can tell, maybe you can pass that information along.

    star polyp problem

    I personally can never get super glue to work. Whatever I glue mushrooms, leather, zoas, all come off. I can not get super glue to work at all. I try drying the rock and the item but still nothing. Pretty much about 5 min of being in the water the frags have come off. I end up using rubber...

    Panda Goby

    this is a question from someone on my local reef forum. Any one know anything? Anybody ever kept these? I think they are just too cute, but the information on them is limited. I am very tempted to get a couple but I am curious about their personalities and feeding habits. If anyone has one or...

    Thomas - question

    Well I had already done that. So I did it again. Here is my conclusion - please by all means correct me if I am wrong. I personally have come to the conclusion that BTA's split normally as a means of reproduction, however that sometimes they will split if stressed. So another question - how do...
