I underwent chemotherapy a few years ago for cancer. My treatments consisted of 8 hours a day for one week during a month for 12 months. Even though I was heavily drugged at the time, I tended to get agitated and restless during the sessions. The nurses and my wife noticed that everytime they...

But would they work with my current tank inhabitants??

Anyone else, please help!!!

I've been thinking about adding just one more thing to my tank(yeah right). I currently have a 150G with a foxface, blue tang, dwarf lion, flame angel, snowflake eel, pencil urchin, along with a semi clean up crew. I had wanted to add a starfish but research on this site and others made me...

Unless you are planning to add an aggressive fish it shouldn't really matter what order to put it in. If also putting in an aggressive fish, put the foxface in first, this gives it a chance to establish territory without being greatly harrassed. I've read this several times on this site, so I...

Mine always turns the camo color when resting at night and then back to normal most of the time in the daytime.

It is thier top fins that are venemous and only show them when they are frightened. I've heard that it feels like a bad bee sting you happen to get stung. Don't worry mine usually stays away from me when I clean the tank. I love his personality though, he always wants attention and tries to beg...

Mine would spit water if I didn't feed fast enough or fed him something he didn't like. Good luck!!

I feed mine a mixture of algae sheets and pellet food. Plus he tends to clean up whatever the lion or eel dont eat. I agree with alyssia, he maybe just adjusting. Mine didn't eat for 3 days when I first got him. Now he eats like a pig.

None of my fish so far have bothered the pencil urchin. It was the angel I was concerned about in the nipping department.

I was at the LFS today and they had a chocolate starfish that I kept coming back to. I wanted to get it but need to research first. I currently have a 150G tank with a foxface, blue tang, flame angel, dwarf lion, pencil urchin, and just recently added a snowflake eel. I've read on other sites...

My dwarf lion started getting picky about what he would and wouldn't eat. It finally got down to just silversides. I let him go about 3 days with no food and suddenly he wasn't picky anymore. Now he eats whatever I put in the tank. Good luck!

My fuzzy dwarf eats a mixture of silversides, krill and clams. All are usually soaked in vitamins. Haven't been able to get him to eat any squid or clams yet though.

I had Spike for a bout 2 years. He grew from 2 inches to about 6-7 inches in that time. I had him in a 150G. Totally spoiled fish. I taught him to be hand fed and then after that I couldn't feed him any other way. I had to buy new hermits and snails every couple of months or so as Spike would...

OOps, didn't realize this thread was still alive. Just an update on the goby and hopefully some helpful info. A few days after my last post on this topic, I went out of town for a couple of days and when I came back I couldn't find him. I finally looked at the egg crate and noticed that he was...

I feed mine every other day. I usually go with a mix of silversides, krill, and brine shrimp. He only really seems to want food every other day. He is always begging but is really picky if its an off day for feeding. Ususally he swims away when he's done and I notice a slight bulge in his stomach.

I'm not sure but I think he is storing the food in the rocks and hopefully eating later. Today the shrimp I fed him was meant for the lion but he didn't want it. The eel took it disappeared and came back almost immediately. It was a rather large piece for his size. Is it possible thats what he...

I got him to eat a small piece of clam today and also a silverside. It seems that for now he'll eat just about anything. Should I be soaking any of these in vitamins before I feed him? Just curious.
