    Brittle Star Pieces

    Thanks guys for the help! I just checked my numbers. Amonia and Nitrites are still at 0. Nitrates at 20. Ph is still at 8.2. I'll keep in mind about the meter, although I do rinse it every time with fresh water right away and its only 4 months old. I think I'll take a sample of water to my...

    Star Fish ID?

    I also have two tiny starfish that just recently "appeared" in my tank. They look like yours, I think. Is yours a drab brownish grey? Is it about the size of the end of your small finger? This may be what I have. I've been wondering what they are.

    How do I raise Ocellaris Clown babies?

    I have had 4 Ocellaris Clowns for about 3 weeks and one has laid eggs. How do I ensure the babies stay alive? I ordered Rotifers to get started, but have no idea what to do, etc. Help???
