I went into the LFS yesterday and they'd just received a new shipement the day b4, anyway, all the anthias they had where very pale looking and sitting on the floor, none of them moved an inch none of them swam around or anything. Is this normal, or is something up with them?

will purple fire gobbies b ok with regular fire gobbies? also, will they b ok with similar shaped species such as anthias and grammers/dottybacks etc?

wiggles and wobbles

what size are clownfish when they start breeding?

would a pair of scarlet hermit crabs, a pair of blood red shrimps and a pair of banded cleaner shrimps be ok 2gether or will they rip each other to shreds?

I purchased a pair of percs yesterday which looked healthy & active at the LFS, I drip acclimitized them for 1hr+, put them into already cycled QT with lights off, and left them 4 about 4 hrs then tried feeding, the larger 1 ate but the smaller 1 didn't even try. In the morning I noticed that...

Originally Posted by sepulatian Ah, but if all of the "good" LFS's refuse to stock them, and tell the people all about cleaner gobies and how much better they are, then maybe we can put a dent in the amount wrassies comming off of the reef why can't someone get a hold of Greenpeace or some...

I had the same idea once, anyway, where I live right now (Dubai, UAE), I've seen at one of the princes' palaces here a mini reef that he's had built 4 him. He lives at a beach front property and the palace is actually partually in the water, so all he had 2 do really was to just close of a small...

I haven't gotten into breeding clownfish yet, but I hope to in a yr or so, anyway, i wanted to know what else can u feed them other than plankton? Will normal flake food that's been broken into tiny pieces do? Does seawater from the beach contain plankton? Maybe u can just get water from the...
