I just got a pom pom crab and boy is it pregnant what are the chances of these little guys actually making it. I think it would be super cool to have little babies running around

rock is as big as a human fist probbaly snail is pretty small i dont know if it is a snail though

Found a few of these in the tank are they baby snails or what? if they are a nuisance how do you get rid of them?

bump

and the tank is only 5 gallons

well that is sort of my question would it take longer than a week to start I added some LR and LS the LR had quit a bit of dead alge and other stuff hanging off it. Also I have added some other fish food to feel the small shrimp that came in the tank. I over fed him the last two times so there...

alright so If I add a fish just watch the levels and make sure it doesnt spike? one fish shouldnt have to much output. As of right now there is a small clean up crew and shrimp. I have added some food to feed the shrimp so I would immagine that would cause some nitrate

I have now had the tank for a week and still no spike or even a slight increase in nitrate. I mixed the saltwater myself and added in around four pounds of live rock and a few pounds of live sand. There was quite a few hitchhikers who have kept the tank clean but is it possible to skip the cycle...

As you can see me and my gf where very excited to see him grab the food lol. He actually came all the way out I just did not get it on the video. I use a small piece of beta food which I know is not the best for him but with a pair of surgical tweezers I sat the food right beside him and he came...

so the water did not kill it but my LFS had some reef safe stuff that I applied with a syringe it killed it immediatley

I am contemplating just pulling him out, but I dont want to hurt him :(

I have a brittle star fish who wont come out even at night. We really want to get a good look at him. is there a way to convince him to come out?

heated up some water in the sink and poured it into a bottle that had a whole in the bottom connect to some tubing. I held the bottle bove my head and shot heated watter at them in the tank the small ones appeared to be torched immediatley, but the big one still has some tentacles hanging out...

wow thanks glad you caught that one for me I had no idea just thought it was a soft coral or something thanks man

Im relatively new to the hobby so I am willing to bet this is a pretty common find, anyone tell me what its called and if it is good or bad? http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k...IMG_0347-1.jpg If you cannot see it well enough there is a link to a bigger version above.

it comes with a filtration system, but does it come with a protein skimmer. Also i assumed it didnt come with a heater do you need one for such a small tank.

thanks for the help. how do you vaccum up junk.

When you buy a tank you mix the water and let it cycle. Do you add the Life rock or Life sand first? and how do you cure a rock?

what do you need to purchase to test the water -i saw a master kit but i wasnt sure if it tested for ph as well
