This question has been asked almost continously. If you read back through the posts on this forum you will find many answers. I suspect many are tired of answering the same question over and over again. I know i am. Anyways, to make a long answer short. I hated - Oceanic and Tropic Marin Pro...

I buy only aquacultered online.

You said you were looking for rare beautiful triggers. There is a Super Rare Large West African Blue Spotted Triggerfish for sale on the 2 Doctors site. It looks georgeous and is $450.00 and 6 1/4 inches :joy:

The shrimp gobies dig the burrow and share it with the shrimp. The watchman goby I had didn't sift sand

I also got my maroon as aquacultured and juvi. she pretty much did the same thing. She is now 2 inches and it turns out the stripes are yellow. The maroon color of the body fades to black in the fins,

Flame angels and coral beauty's are like a box of chocolates. You never know what your gonna get.

When your not looking your fish will steal your money :mad:

Most likely the diamond won't get along with the spotted but you never know for sure. If you got them when they were really small maybe it would work. I know from my experience that the diamond goby and yellow watchman goby didn't like each other so the yellow dissappeared.

I have a Hawaiian Trigger with a maroon clown and the maroon clown is in charge and will run the trigger away from his space. The maroon is about 2 inches and the trigger is about 5 inches.

I make my fish food also. Be carefull what you buy. Most packaged seafood has phosphates espeacialy at the fresh seafood counter. Just ask to see the bag it came iin and check the ingedients to make sure there are no phosphates.

I have a Hawaiian trigger with a Kole tang, coral beauty, Maroon clown, and Diamond goby. So far he has not made any advances on them but he does try to hog all the food. If he does attack any of them he is gone. Until then I will continue to train him to roll over for food. Triggers are smarter...

It's like I said, it's not a matter of if the triggers will kill but a matter of when. But understand this, that doesn't mean I am a hater. I have a trigger and I love it. I havne't had a bad experience with a trigger ever and I don't condone keeping multiples in the same tank. So before you...

Mine does 900 GPH also and it is so quiet that sometimes I have to just check to make sure.

I am using Seachem Reef now and am impressed so far. I just made a post about an hour ago that show my dissatisfaction with Oceanic and Tropic Marin Pro Reef at https://forums.saltwaterfish.com/t/268549/salt-brand-does-make-a-difference-imo For the price and quality I go with Seachem but when...

I finally ran out of the bucket of Tropic Marin Pro Reef salt and performed a water change with Seachem salt. Here is a bit of history first. When I first started up the tank I had a bucket of Oceanic and quickly found my pH around 7.8 to 7.9 and couldn't go any higher unless I used a buffer. My...
