    Growth on Live Rock

    I kept hearing about cyano algae and my lfs has had an outbreak at their store. It is bright red and is on the ls at the store. I just have a dark purple on a couple of my lr. I hope this is just the corrine(spelling poor) algae because it is a pretty color?

    Diamond or Golden Headed Goby?

    I saw that is grows up to 6 inches and is also called the brown banded Goby. Is it more hardy than the Diamond or Golden Head? I'm new and don't want to kill it due to inexperience. Thanks for directing me to the right goby with the sceintific name.

    Diamond or Golden Headed Goby?

    One thing I just read on the Dragon Goby says it is in brackish water. It also says it looks more like an eel. Anything that looks like a snake or eel by Wife will freak out. We had a small snake on our entry way about 3 inches and she ran to the next door neighbor since I was at work. :scared:

    what's the 1st thing you wish you had known

    Not to Cycle with Damsels which would have also meant not listening to my lfs and do more research first. After having to remove all 110lbs of lr to catch the Damsels. Next time buy a hungry lion fish or puffer to do the job. Also making the selling of those plastic hydrometers illegal.

    I Hate Damsels

    I just got rid of my Damsels as the lfs told me to use them for cycling. After having to take all 110 pounds of lr out of the tank, I finally caught them all (8) and took them back where they gave me a 20 dollar store credit. Use shrimp and not Damsels!!

    The Damsels are GONE!!!!

    After cycling the tank, I had to remove all 110 pounds of lr and put in a pre-mixed garbage can with saltwater. It was still fun trying to catch them. I couldn't put the rock back how I had them but after a long time finally have it acceptable. The only things in there now is a cleaner shrimp...
