    question for you guys... I had a BAD problem w/ glass anemones in my tank before everything died. I cleaned it all out and put in the new sand and rock etc. Today I saw a little tine Glass Anemones on the LR. Can I put in Joes Juice while Im cycling the tank? or should I wait untill its set up...

    Kim-thinking of going nano

    Kim, my 2 cents is that you stay with the 75gal, Nanos can be a pain in the A** since the systems can be a lot more susceptible to drastic changes, thats just my esperience. Im actually saving up to get a much biger tank (55-75gal) good luck with the nano if you choose to go that route

    yeah, I had a Big pink tipped anemone that split into a smaller one, they did fine, ate alot of brine shrimp cubes that I fed to my clown. I actually bought the tank from a guy who had it for 6 years before I did with the same lights. I've given up on the puffer idea, thinking i'd go with a...

    HELP! Did I kill My LR?

    OK, testing every other day for about a month, sounds good. What fish should I introduce first? Im tired of clowns and blennies, what would be a hardy fish to put in? Im thinking of only putting in one fish, any ideas?

    think he would eat my "scrimps" and crabs if I added any? I want to put a cleaner shrimp in there, maybe some Peppmt shrimp. Think I can get away with a starfish?
