I have a my H. Butterfly in a ten gallon QT. He has ick. I tested the water yesterday for ammonia and it was fine. I was not home last night and when I got home this morning he acted fine and was swimming. I went back in an hour later and he was laying on the bottom breathing hard. His eye...

I use Ocean Nutrition Prime Reef Flakes. It says it has low phospherous and low ash. I have put aglae/seaweed strips in my tank before but my fish would not touch it.

I have been giving them flakes every evening. Myabe onces a week or 2 I will treat them to frozen brine shrimp.

I have 2 hangon filters, a wet dry sump, and 2 power heads. I have the Koralia 3 (850GPH) and Koralia 4 (1200 GPH). Do I need more than that?

As you can see in the attached pictures.... My tank is not pretty. Its filthy. I have to scrub this nasty looking purple goo off my tank once or twice a week. I have had my tank set up for one year. I have had this problem for months but now it is annoying. I have tried numerous things to...

My Maroon Clown is intent on hosting in my Haitian Anemone. The anemone has gone all over the tank from front to back and now attached to the glass side. I know this type of anemone do not normally host clowns but my clown chases it where ever it goes. Should I be concerned?

I have a flame and coral beauty in a 55 and they get along good.

I have a purple and red firefish. They get along great. Although they stay back in the rocks most of the time unless its feeding time. Very pretty fish.

As I posted in another post I bought a new clown and it does not get along with my old ones so I am converting a ten gallon into a saltwater tank for the new clowns. Question is I have gravel in my ten gallon tank. I have 2 ten gallons that had tropical fish and I put all my tropicals in one...

Thanks for the help everyone! Would it work if I would go to my lfs and get one of those hang on the side nets and put the percs in the net for a week or would they still fight?

would it hurt my 2 percs to spend a week in my sump tank with my pump and heater?

I have 2 false percula clownfish (rather big) and one goldstripe maroon clown (rather small)in my tank currently. They all seem to get along great. The maroon stays to himself and the 2 perculas roam together. Today I bought from a lfs another maroon clown about the same size of my...

Thanks for all your help. So far it is still alive. The leg has stopped disappearing. Any chance it will grow back if it lives?

I bought an orange linka last week. He is a very active little thing and goes all over the tank. Today I notice that one of his legs is falling off and has white stuff coming out. He still moves around the tank, in fact in the last hour he has moved from the sand up onto the glass and from...
