I just picked up the cutest saddle back valentini puffer yesterday. After accimilation i fed it some frozen brine shrimp soaked in garlic. It ate it quite fast and almost all of it ! What food do they prefer ? Do they need any specific care ? I have two other 3 stripe damsel's along with him...

Like i said, I would not mind keeping only a saddle back puffer. Would it be a good idea ?

How are these fish to keep ? I Currently have a 20Long with about 20lbs of LR and about 40lbs of LS. I currently have 2 small 3 stripe damsel's which I would be either give away to another entusiast or to the LFS. My salenity is at 1.022, all other level's are fine. My tank has been running...

I've had this one perc clown in my tank for about 3 week's now. Last week, i added another perc which died this saturday. Later found out if died from ick. SO i started treating my tank with kick ick. My orginial perc clown used to eat everyday and eat plenty. After introducing the new perc it...

Originally posted by jwtrojan44 If you only have the one fish, you can easily get the problem under control. Cryptocaryon (sw ich) is an obligate parasite that needs a host in order for it's life cycle to continue. No host=no parasite. As crytpo does not affect inverts, the easiest method would...

Could some one please tell me what these thing's are (white tube like structure's). its on a few rock's. Sorry if the pic's are big :) My tank has been up for 2 month's. I did have high phosphate's begining of this week. That is when i added the Phosphate buffer (?). Due to the high...

Originally posted by nolofinwe id take it out like you described, especially during feedings. if you go full blown reef you might only want to run it a few hours a day. i dont even use one anymore, the water flows into my refugium and most detrius settles there. I'm not using a refugium. The...
