i've tried some guppies but i think they are too small to make notice for him. The LFS only have gold fish and guppies and i know how bad gold fish are. I started to medicate the tank with melaflex(sp). Make sure he doesn't have a bacteria infection. Cause this is the first time in 2 years he...

I wouldn't want any worm in my tank over 4 inches, and they can get up to 10 ft in tanks, ugly. Once they get big it doesn't matter they are a problem. Plus give me the creeps when they get a foot long..lol

I got a clarki clown and he's a damsel family. If my lionfish was aggressive as him. I would have to get rid of him. I also had a blue damsel they are just too territorial.

I doubt that salinity is an issue. I read of reports of lion fish living in 1.053 salinity(conscious marine aquaruamist). The was slow change, water evaporation. Coral would not like extremely high salinity but fish can tolerate a lot of different environments and long as the change is slow...

Electronic! I had the old version of metal halides and i wont use them anymore after my incident. I worked at a tractor repair shop and we had the exact same halide ballasts on our lights at work. When i turned them on for work one morning it kicked the breaker. I flipped the breaker on at the...

I had so many bristle worms that when ever i turned a powerhead on for the day. It would kick 10 or so worms out of my tank. My luck have it they were coral eaters or when they populated so far they started eating my zoos. I used a 6 inch pieces of pvc tube, cap it on both ends. Drill couple of...

In that youtube video. They are both died shortly after. Beyond that. Being a business owner. I can't imagine any insurance covering you selling something so deadly. You could have them sign a waiver. However that always get thrown out. It's very irresponsible for pet store to sell them. The law...

I have a red voiltian in my tank, Means he's fine with corals and fish as big so that they won't fit in his mouth. But no shrimp and i wouldn't put an arrow or emrald crab in. But he's my buddy. I only have a big clarki in with him. He's the mean one towards me. If my lion acted like him i...

they do get big. They are excellent scavengers, just need a big tank. Big tank.

Nice landscaping If it was mine i think a pair of percula clowns would look beautiful in there. But there's alot of choices and combos you could do. So many options. :thinking:

kudos nice job
