    Acanthurus OR Chaetodon????

    IMO, this is a real "its the individual fish" dilemma. I've had tangs that won't tolerate any other tang, others that just hated their own genus or species, and a Sohal that rules everybody. I've also had tangs (that were considered aggressive) that would be fine with anything. IMO & IME, I...

    New Clown Fish having problems

    Get rid of the damsels or they, not you, will decide what you can and can't keep. Getting rid of these little monsters is one of the most common topics on this forum.

    Tiger in Rehab

    I used to like Tiger; and could again, but not on the path he's on. I saw his choreographed press deal and he ended it with something like..."you will be able to believe in me again", or similar drivel. Sorry, maybe its just me, but he sounded like he thought he was some sort of Deity...he...

    Starting over

    This is a fairly common thing. It happened to me years ago and I now always use two small heaters; small enough that one can't overheat the tank very quickly. This may be tough with a small tank; but I think 2 -50 watt heaters would make you safer; even a couple 25 watt heaters should work. Most...
