im in buffalo ny. I have 3 good lfs in my area.

ouch!!!! I just paid 5.99 for emerald. .99 for blue leg hermit, sally's at 7.99 I guess I will not complain about my lfs anymore..

thanks. I was having the same problem in my tank. I have elevated phos, but it has been that way for months. I just did a water change, and everything has not been happy. both of my leathers are dying. one just melted. I checked the salt. 1.025... oops. I normally keep it at 1.022

I just put "Red Slime Remover" in my tank last night. You would be amazed at how fast it worked. It is by UltraLife Reef Products. No harm done.

I have a toadstool leather for about 4-5 months now. It has been doing great. Over the last couple of days, it does not look good. It has white spots all over it. Yesterday is was drooped over. Today it has gotten rigid again, and some of its polyps are out, but it is still covered with the...

It took mine a couple weeks to come to life. It was doing great until I added a manderine goby. It ate all of the fine little things growing on it.

I have a 2r and love it. I almost never get bubbles in my tank from it. The only time I had a problem was when it got REALLY dirty. I cleaned out the return reservior and have not had a problem since. It operates at a low sound level. You can hear it, but it is not obnoxious. It does a...

I have a 54 gallon, with about 55#'s of LR. My manderin has been alive for a couple months. If does not appear to be having any troubles (except for a bout of ick). My LR had alot of growth on it before adding the manderin. Of course, the lfs told me how EASY they are. oh well....

I tried using phos guard. I just did a large (15%) water change. that did the most for me. I also added a skimmer. After about a week, I was emptying the cup every day. That seemed to work. Also, test your water source. You may find you are added phosphates into your tank when you do a...

I have a couple of these snails in my tank. I haven't noticed any problems with them. Mine are about 1/2" long. about 1/8" wide. Their shells are with with blank stripes. None on mine are getting that large. None of my carnivorous critters are eating them. I have a green serpant star, a...

If you are talking about gorgonians, then yes I know something about them. I have 3. I have a purple, a silver and a yellow. I was told that they are a soft coral. I was feeding them baby brine eggs every couple days. they were not doing very well. What I just bought that is doing wonders...

My sallys do that all the time. But mine appear to be attacking each other. One now only has 2 legs on its right side. yesterday one was laying on the other. It looked like it was trying to pull the others eyes off.

I had the smae problem with a couple of yellow tails. IT was the same thing. Stress is a big problem for these fish. what kind of damsels were they.

I think all of the babies are gone. I can't find any of them. I put them in a breeding net in my main tank. They all disappeared. oh well, maybe next time.

by no means am I an expert, but I would say to lose that old tank. a 30 gallon tank only is cheap enough to just buy a new one. If everything that you put in it died, I would not risk it.

I have 2 cleaner shrimp. this is the second time the shrimp have released babies. I am not too confident that they will survive. I will have to see. They lasted one day so far. I moved them back into the main tank in a breeder net. I added some phytoplankton. we will see how it goes.

The lfs did not say it could survive in no light. they said that it could survive in lower light levels. I wll try to move the coral. But does anyone know what the white spots are?

I just watched my cleaner shrimp release her babies. I collected as many as IU could. right now they are in a quart jar until I can get a breeder net setup in the tank. hopefully they will survive. It was really cool to watch her release the babies.

I like my fire goby and royal gramma. neither are aggresive. I also like my manderine goby. I know. I am over stocked. ( I am waiting for the right opportunity to lose the damsels)

I have 5 types of coral in my tank. I have a 54 gallon bow front corner tank, with about 54 lbs of lr. I am using a fluval 404, and a cpr 2r. I have an 18" blue acnic, a 20" triton and a 20" 10k. I added 2 leather corals on the advice from the lfs that they will survive in that setup. the...
