The Mantis Shrimp That fell out of my LR is still alive. Anyone want him before I dispose of him? I am in the Massachusetts area. If you want me to ship it you have to cover costs or perhaps we could work out a trade. If you want a pic of it look up the thread I posted titled "Mantis Shrimp".

Can anyone identify this?

I finally got my tank going and I just put in the live rock the other night before bed cause I wanted to get it in the water. Went to bed. My question is I don't have much room in my tank to aquascape can I take some of the LR out for a bit to move some pieces around? I did not think it would be...

How important is it to get live rock on your tank if it is shipped. I found a deal, but it may take up to 5 days to get it cause I live on the east coast. Will that kill the rock. This is for a new tank setup.

This may sound like a dumb question, but since I am a newbie I want to cover all the basics. I am going to be setting up a reef Tank and wanted opinions on what fish to add first. Do you wait to add the more aggressive fish last letting the more docile fish build up a territory or does it not...

I want to setup my 30g SWA. The information is overwhelming and I have read some books on it as well as the treads on this forum. Can anyone help me get started. I want a Reef tank for beginners. Some LR and LS, but how much also a clownfish to start. What kind of lighting and filtration? I have...

I am a newbie and am considering buying a R/O Filter since I am having trouble finding a LFS that sells it. There is one a ways away and they want $1.25/g. That seem's like alot since I read other people only pay about .50/g. I saw an AquaSafe system on ---- that looked decent. Does anyone know...
