    BTA Question

    My question was geered towards when people are generally considering themselves successful at keeping their anenome. It is my understanding that they can last for a period of time by essentially eating themselves, and was curious how long that could go on. In terms of feeding, I have done some...

    BTA Question

    Which fish can we get?

    FWIW My tang attacked my flame angel within seconds of adding him to the tank. (this of course may be the exception not the rule...can't say on that) RIP I would add the tang with the flame or after the flame if I was to do it again. My mandarin eats thawed blood worms in addition to copepods...

    New Green Star Polyp??

    I am a relative newbie so factor that in to my response. Adding in more than one coral at a time is not generally an issue. That said, as previously stated you may want to start slow for cost control in case there is a problem. Here is where I may differ. Do not assume that because one coral...
