I appreciate all the thoughts/advice; I reckon I'll just leave it and see what happens.

I'm also interested in knowing if the silversides are too fatty, because silversides and krill are all I feed my dwarf lions.

you're right reefer; i have had the tank setup for a few months

Hey ya'll, I don't really know which forum this belongs in, so I'll try it here. I am currently renting a condo where no pets are allowed on the lease, but it doesn't say anything specifically about fish (I have a 38g tank). I was wondering if anyone could help me out and tell me whether or not...

Problem: 2 days ago when I woke up, my sally lightfoot crab (large, about 3" wide from foot to foot) was missing 2 front and 2 back legs so that it had 4 legs; today it has 3 legs left I have added no new tank mates in over a month. Who do you think is the likely culprit? Here's what I have in...

I believe that's a zebra dwarf. Here's a pic of my zebra dwarf, Vinny, to compare:

yes he'll be fine; I've got a fuzzy and a zebra dwarf in a 38g and they get along

Yep; my fuzzy's eyes are either blue or a emerald green depending on the lighting/angle.

Thanks for the replies; the Prizm I've got right now is junk and it barely fits so I'm looking at the Coralife rated for a 65g tank. I don't know if I'd be able to slide the canopy forward or not. I'll check tonight and also take a measurement.

If I use this for a hang on skimmer how much room in inches does it need above the tank? I've a got a canopy and probably about 6" of clearance right now. Thanks

$25 shipped. Just added the upgrade kit; needs a new pump I think, the one that came with it is working, but not very good.

Yeah, i wouldn't worry too much about it unless the fish are very small. Also, I would suggest adding the fuzzy last.

I'd recommend a fuzzy dwarf lion. Very personable fish; mine always swims over to me when I'm near and she eats frozen silversides from my fingers. If you went this route though it'd be the only fish you could have. I keep mine with a zebra dwarf lion and many inverts in a 38g and I think...

I was thinking of getting a species only tank of 125g with about 100lbs of LR; would this be enough for its entire life by itself?

I have a Prizm HOB skimmer right now on my 38g FOWLR and am looking at getting the upgraded inlet pipe with the surface skimmer attachment. Is this worth it? Does it really improve the performance noticeably? Thanks!

What's the smallest tank size one of these would be comfortable in? How much live rock do they prefer? Could you keep a large softball sized crab or a huge lobster with one? Thanks!

Thanks!

I'm using a HOB Red Sea Prizm protein skimmer and would like to know how to use this thing properly. When I turn the valve all the way open, the collection cup fills with water which eventually drains back to the intake via the hose from the top of the collection cup to the intake tract. This...

Sometimes something that is inside my LR will send up a small cloud of dust, almost like it is burping. Any ideas on what's going on?
