    too much coraline algae, help!

    I always use a metal razor blade and never have problems. Make sure the razor blade is clean new and rustfree. Don't leave it in the tank when done and wash it and dry it to keep rust from forming. Adam

    question about xenia..

    I think I read that the xenia pulse to keep water flowing for a good supply of oxygen. Xenia in higher current and once established in an aquarium stop pulsing. I was also told something similar by a pet store owner. Adam

    What fish would go with . . .

    I think you are kinda pushing it with three more fish. Your tank is only 25 gallon. I am afraid to go over three fish in my 46 gallon. Boxfish become large and need a large tank. Get a few good books and read up. There are thousands of interesting animals to choose from and you need to find...

    Stocking a 470 gallon aquarium.

    I would say no sting ray or shark. If you plan on having live rock these fish I have heard can be very destructive and will grow large. Adam

    Watchman Goby won't stay put!

    I had a hard time with my watchman goby stay put too. Couple of times I found him on the drip plate of my wet/dry filter. I think the problem was he had no burrow to hide in. We had a large clam shell I boiled to sterilize and I put it in there and dug the sand out from underneath. I captured...

    Need red or yellow reef safe fish

    Originally posted by Gemini I just purchased 3 firefish. They are really pretty but stay hidden all the time. Wish I had reconsidered... I purchased two firefish and it took a few weeks before they came out when we were home. What other fish do you have in your tank. I have had problems...

    Stupid Question, but would like an answer...

    I have also read that besides hot water and a visit to the treatment center you should also put either vinegar or alcohol over the wound. Also if stung by one or two rays, most adults should be able to withstand the pain. Adam

    Need red or yellow reef safe fish

    How about a couple/handful of firefish? They are schooling fish right? You have a big enough tank for them. Adam

    Triggerfish/dwarf lion

    I have always wanted one of these but do not know much about them. What size tank do they need? If I were to keep just one what is the minimum tank size? Out of all the triggers/dwarf lions what is the hardiest and most docile? What filtration and aquascaping is necessary? If I were to get one...

    Sea Robins...

    I would say to leave them alone. If they are found off New Jersey and I think they are found here in RI then they are a colder water fish than your aquarium. You would need a special set up for them. Adam
