I still think you might want to rethink this...hell can you just bait a hook with some cut bait and hope he comes out. Or better yet...CALL ANIMAL CONTROL!!!!! And yes you may want to check legalities on removing live coral from the ocean....it is my understanding that all the reef is...

Yeah all the reading I am doing says that they don't bite humans unless they are in a threating situation....I think your situation would be considered a threating one....but it does say they most bites are lethal...

I have a great story...when we were snorkling in Maui at Ka'anapauli beach my husband got bit by a stars and stripes puffer on the thumb. We were feeding the fish as this is a big thing along the shore line there. The puffer was about 18 inches long and almost as big around...anyway he was...

Okay dragonfli, here is the thing....The crocodile hunter handles wild animals everyday on TV doesn't mean we should do it!!! But the other thing is if you call animal control can you get in trouble for these things? Can you get in legal trouble for having things out of the ocean? (and I mean...

Morbo, you need a new a tank!!!! Please do some research on these boards as what fish are appropriate for what size tank you have. The fish that are in there probably won't last to long as they will get stressed out.

Here is my question...how the hell did he get it into the tank...without getting bit?

I have bought most of my clean up crew and my fish here. I have only had one DOA and they replaced it. Oh and I bought a couple of corals. I can only brag of the items and the service.

who can compare to that pic.^...hell everyone is scratching their head.

I would offer to come and catch it for you but since I am in Kentucky it sounds like you are on your own with this one. That is one ugly creature. BTW I am scared of anything that crawls on its belly :eek: Its not right!!! :eek: I can't have an eel because I am creeped out by them. That...

thanks Dory...sorry to hear about the bubble coral. I guess if we plan on keeping these THINGS we have to expect a loss or a battle occasionally. I have had great success with other items that some have had complete tragedy out of so I guess I am getting my come around from this BTA. lol After...

Thanks for the info guys...I don't have a voltmeter but could prolly find one somewhere. The outlet is grounded so I just attached to the screw.

Dogstar, this is going to sound dumber than the first question...lol Yes the screw is metal and our house is only 4 years old so I think all of the outlets are grounded...but not all of the outlets have a GFC switch. Does that mean they are not grounded? I know what the grounding cable looks...

Hi Funkyman, It is my understanding that when you move a tank you will most likely distrub the overall balance of bacteria. I would think that the sand bed being shifted around and no circulation for such a period of time will cause some die off, causing a mini cycle if not a full cycle. Will...

hey guys, this might be a dumb question but I am really blonde when it comes to electricity and plumbing. Instead of plugging my grounding probe in the wall can I just attach it to the screw in the plate? I really need the extra plug in this jack. If so what do I do with the 3 prong plug...

We females are a pain, are we not? It took my clowns about a month to realize the other wasn't going anywhere. The male is put in his place daily but they go right back to being buds after he stops pouting. :happyfish

Bergamer, the angel will pick at seahorses fins. The seahorses would have to fight for food since they are not big hunters or fast eaters. If you plan to keep them they need to be in a species only tank. Contrary to some believe seahorses love to play in the current so they can handle low...

Thanks for all the info....I couldn't get him to move all day yesterday. I tried high flow and turned the lights out. Well sometime during the night he moved...and YEP he moved right to the filter intake.... :eek: . I managed to get him out intact however I did notice a small tare in the...

thanks Dory, I love these anemones but right now I am not real fond of it. I will have to try and take a pic so everyone can see just how in the MIDDLE the BTA planted itself into my polyps. I was planning on fragging these polyps because there were so many of them but I think my BTA may...

Sorry, I see now someone else posted about the stray voltage as well..... Little slow here today.... :sleepy:

Is the tank grounded? Could there be a stray current? If so this can cause undo stress resulting in diseases.
