Tank holds 21 gallons with the rock, I change 4-5 gallons on the 1st and 15th of the month. I use distilled water and Instant Ocena Salt. The water claims the following process on the jug...

    24g Comming Back

    When all the bad stuff was gone, my pepermint starting eating my feather tubes, so I had to pull him out. Keep an eye on the feathers if you get one. . . Brian

    First time for Ick. . .

    My tank is two years old and stupid me I put a royal gramma in without QT first. After 3 weeks, I can see as of this afternoon he has ick. Been hiding since yesterday, and did not eat yesterday. . . Looks like the clown is starting to get it too, but he is acting normal. At this point, the...

    pepermint shrimp ?

    I know I just read on here somewhere a couple of weeks ago about someone with peppermint shrimp eating feather tubes, but I cannot find the posting. I bought three peppermint shrimp for my 24G nano to control the anemones (there were a BUNCH of them). Within a week, the anemones are gone. Now...

    2 questions. . .

    Hi everyone. Been a while since I have posted. I have had my 24G nano for a little over a year now and it is doing GREAT. I still love it like the day I bought it. It is a little overloaded (from what I have read), but I always change 5 gallons every two weeks, and the water seems to stay in...

    green algae

    My LFS said same thing about it will cycle. . . I did not think I was adding anything that would increase my phosphates, but as I understand it, they can increase with just regular fish feedings. I bought the cut to size phosphate filters and added to my setup about 10 days ago. Since adding...

    coral banded shrimp and six-line wrasse

    So do you think a Coral Banded would survive with a six line, a perc clown, a royal gramma, and a scooter blenny? Thanks! Brian

    coral banded shrimp and six-line wrasse

    I just added a sixline to my tank, and he killed my cleaner shrimp on the first day. I was hoping the cleaner was just molting, but it has been 5 days and no sign of him.

    Another cleaner shrimp molting ?

    My cleaner shrimp just disappeared Sunday morning. I have since seen two antennas floating around, but no shell. I have had him for three weeks. Other fish in the tank: sixline wrasse, false perc clown, royal gramma, scooter blenny. He has been eating good and very active in the tank. My live...

    Fish for a 24 gallon

    Hi, My tank is now finally setup, cycled, and doing GREAT. It is a JB Nano 24G deluxe (FOWLR), 20 lbs LS, 21 lbs LR, stock filter system and lighting. At this point, I have (2) small percula clowns, (1) Royal Gramma, 7 hermits, and 6 snails. I think I am borderline on # of fish, but I am...

    Stressed Clown fish

    Well, he was gone this morning. . . It is a nano cube 24 gallon. It has a 290 GPH pump. I think the circulation is pretty good. I have three fake plants in the tank, and they all move around quite a bit from the circulation. Temp is 79. Clowns are same species. Nitrates have never been above...

    Stressed Clown fish

    Hi to everyone! Been reading through old posts for about 1 hour now. . . . I have a fairly new tank that cycled and now has amonia 0, nitrites 0, and nitrates have been as high as 10-15 (I have done two 10-20% water changes). The tank was cycled with 20 lbs of LS, 22 lbs of LR, and (2) yellow...

    New Nano 24G

    Thanks. I am actually going to take a sample to the LFS tomorrow and have the Alkalinity tested. pH was low again today. Today's tests: Amonia: 0, Nitrites: 0, Nitrates: 10 (maybe a little above, but not near 15) Fish great and another blue leg hermit appeared today. . . Interesting, I found...

Stablized the SG to 1.022-23 with temp at 79 degrees. Added 20 lbs LS and 2 tsp Kent Eco-Start (amount...
