    Dropping like flies

    Thank you so much for the help with a new set up. To my relife the anemone was just digesting. Today it's back at it rolling around the floor like usual. I'll try to edit my original message and post it in the beginers area like you said. No one at the LFS told us what we needed to look for...

    Dropping like flies

    Lost the Lion, anemone looks either dead or utilizing the latrine. Clown has now begun to act like the last one did. Damsels still happy as can be. I just don't get it. NM has a really high floride level could that do it? If so wouldn't there have been signs of distress when they were first...

    Dropping like flies

    Thanks for the reply. Surfing through the threads at this site has REALLY opened my eyes to a lot of things I'd never have thought of. Filters: We have two scruber pads in each filter they'er like 6X6 inch squares. As to air, no, we only have what the filters pump in as the water cycles back...

Dunno, but that's what we have. We're new to this whole...

    Loseing fish,need help!

    Well my clow did show signs of slight heavy breathing. But we were told it was because of a gender change. Then things looked a little better (over a day) then next thing I know it was dead. The other one that we bought at the same time is doing just fine aside from not having a friend to hang...

    Sounds like you and I are in the same boat (No punn intended). I posted right after you did. Kinda wish I hadn't as mine is a TAD longer than yours. I'll be popping between your's and mine to see any answers pop up. Best of luck to you. How did you work out having two marrons? I was told they...

    I read through the Diseased Fish thread that Beth put up ( incredibly helpful!) However I still can't seem to pinpoint what has caused a string of deaths in my wife and I's tank. Stats: 55 gal, two "back-pack" filters, 4 18 inch bulbs (2 normal white lights, 2 Actinic blues), 40lbs worth of...
