    3 fish too many at once?

    IMO, these 3 fish are rather small....since you have a 90 gallon and it has been up and running for 3 months I would think It would be okay. Now obviously you wouldn't want to add 3 large fish ( such as trigger tang and so on at the same time). If you have the option to get 2 small size...

    my toadstool wont open! help!

    It took my toad about 5 days to fully open up. I moved him several times until I got it right. Now, like clock work he opens when the lights come on and usually closes when they go off. I have seen him open throughout the night as well. Just takes time.

    Three "Jumpers" this weekend

    What is with the carpet diving this weekend? I lost my diamond back goby. I only had him for 2 days....so half of my sand was sifted and the other half looks like crap. I have never lost a fish due to it jumping out of the tank ...so I guess I will invest in some egg crate this week.

    New Clowns

    Hi Bill, Clowns have odd behavior anyway. They are quiet amusing to watch. I can not say wether they will or will not spawn but having a place they like to host in is a good start. There are several people on here who have babies all the time while others can not get so lucky. Hopefully...

    Lawnmower Blenny badly beat up Shrimp Goby. Sad, need help.

    Before I moved and had to break my tank down I had a scooter blenny. He was really cool but became very territorial after awhile. If he couldn't chase away the culprit the blenny would fill his mouth with sand and climb the rock just above his cave and start dropping sand at whatever was close...
