    Multiple Clown Fish?

    thanks for the replys!!! I have the one perc and recently added another and they are doing good so far. A little picking went on at first, but now they are swimming together and getting along. They are about the same size, one is a little bigger, so I hope I do not run into problems later on...

    I started a discussion under the clownfish/anemone thread but have not gotten many replies yet, maybe I will get more replies here! I have one perc clownfish, I have read on SWF.com that they can be kept in groups, and then I have heard if you have more than one of the same clownfish in one tank...

    Little Starfish came out of LR!!!

    All of the rock has been in the tank for almost a month, we had 12 pounds in to start the cycle, and added 45 pounds shortly after. We didn't add all the rock at once because we didn't find SWF.com before we bought the 12 pounds. We ordered 45 pounds from SWF.com and can not be more pleased with it!

    Multiple Clown Fish?

    I have one perc clown fish right now, and I have heard mixed reports on mixing more than one of the same type of clown or mixing the different breeds of clowns. On SWF.com under the fish description, it says that perc clowns (and some others) do well with one or more and often like groups, and...

    Live Rock

    I bought 45 lbs of the Live Fiji Rock from SWF.com. Couldn't have been more pleased with the rock! It was about a dozen good size pieces. All had good color and full of life! Keep seeing something new everytime i look at them. Highly recommended.

    Beginner Fish

    thanks for the info on sweetlips, I did some researching online and read the archive about what fish to stay away from, and know I see why sweetlips are not a good choice- they get huge!

    Beginner Fish

    I was looking at the anglefish and was really interested in the coral beauty. The care level says easy, but is this a fish I should get down the road? and is it safe for invertabraes? Does anyone have any insight on the pajama cardinal?

    Beginner Fish

    I have a 55 gallon tank that has 60 lbs of live rock and 60 lbs of live sand in it right now. It has been cycling for a couple weeks and I am just wondering about what might be some good fish to start out with. Low-maintenence might be good to start with. I was thinking 2 clowns. Are some fish...

    Not trying to hi-jack this thread, but where did everyone else get their "dead" sand? Is it standard playbox sand?
