Sixline wrasse, perhaps? It's a beautiful and active fish.

Is there anything in your tank that might be putting stray current into the water? And you really should invest in a good pair of rubber gloves... the long kind that go way up your arms.

Beautiful! I haven't quite gotten the nerve up to try my hand at a seahorse tank, so I respect anyone who takes the plunge and keeps these beautiful creatures. Maybe one day...

Is the algae hard or is it more of a slime like consistency? If it's slimy, then it is likely cyano bacteria, which occurs commonly in new tanks during the cycle.

Check your other thread for replies. And you'll probably get better responses if you only post a question once, rather than posting the same thing in multiple places.

I don't think the point here is to dissuade experienced members from pointing out to new hobbiests what they are doing wrong. People only learn from their mistakes if they know they have made mistakes in the first place. However, that criticism and correction has to be done in a polite and...

I have used the bottle trap method for several damsels and a couple pseudochromis with great results. Sometimes I catch the wrong fish, but you just pull the trap apart, let the fish out, reset it and try again. I've never had it take more than a week to catch the fish I want. Here's a basic...

Sure, I'd be happy to send some to you! Some tips on the best way to extract and ship them would be appreciated, especially if you're wanting live specimens.

I'm interested to watch this thread too. We used to dose Vitamin C in our fish food back in our 175 gallon. Over the course of several years, we never had an ich outbreak... and we didn't QT anything before adding it to the tank. That could just be coincidence and sheer dumb luck, but I'd be...

Tequila is EVIL.... but oh so good in margaritas.

Waminoa sp.? Cranberry, didn't I see you all hot to trot to get your hands on one of these in an old post? That looks a lot like what I have though. I was able to finally snap a couple pics, although as stated, I suck at macro shots. One of the flatworms has actually split to become two...

I looked at pictures of those and what I have doesn't quite look like them. I'll try again tonight to get a pic.

I've done my due diligence and searched the board and google and haven't found any pictures of flatworms that look like what I have. I've got three of these little guys that hang out on the glass right at the top near the waterline. Most of the flatworm pictures I found are of more elongated...

JBJ makes a 6 gallon nano cube.

What about a cleaner shrimp? They are pretty and have great personalities. I don't think any reef tank should be without one.
