Nice tang Nissan I have an achilles tang too. It is about the same size...maybe 4" though. He is in my 200g bowfront. I also have a powder blue tang too in the same tank. I know this is a no-no in tang care with two similar species in the same tank but fortunatley for me they coexist very...

Haha thanks for the replies guys. I dunno what to do. My fish and corals are so happy and healthy but my clowns just look like they would love an anemone. I would like to have one but if it killed any of my fish, id go crazy. I am afraid my angels may try to pick at the anemone. I just don't...

Hello guys I have been in the hobby for about three years now and I have had a lot of success. My 200g Bowfront reef tank houses mostly SPS and some LPS corals along with a Queen and Emperor Angel, a Powder Blue and Achilles Tang, 7 green chromis and three clows (black and white ocellaris). I...

That sucks you lost everything. It looks good now nonetheless. I assume you mean the light ddropped to 10 inches heated the water way too much thus killing everything?

Sine I was a kid I loved the ocean. I go to the keys every year to get my fix. I always wanted to be a marine biologist. Living in the mountains makes that a little difficult but now having my reef tanks makes that possible. Best hobby ever.

Hey guys So about two years ago I ordered a generic flounder for my FOWLR tank. I got a peacock flounder from saltwaterfish.com about two years ago. I didnt quite know what kind of flounder I would get. it just said "sand flounder". So I tried one. It was not a sand flounder but instead a...

I have LEDs on all my tanks. I have mostly SPS corals and they look great under LEDs. They have grown about 5-6 inches in one year. That's good enough for me. My clams also are doing great under them. They are placed from the top fo the tank to the middle of the tank. I got ecoxotic...

Hey guys I need some advice...I want to bond my live rock together instead of just stacking it on top of each other in a cautious manner. Does anyone have any suggestions what a good glue or epoxey would be for bonding live rock together? Thanks
