I have a 7inch mapp puffer. When I first got him I was feeding him once a day. Now, I swiched it to every other day. He loves crayfish, krill, beef hearts, brine shrimps,and squid(all are frozen except the crayfish of course). My two ?'s are: (1) What are some live foods I could feed him...

I started out with sand only. Not knowing of all the complications of cc I then added it to the sand bed. Now, I would like to convert it back to a sand bed which later I would seed it with live sand. I have a few ?'s I need answers to: (1)Do I really need a DSB? Or do I need 3 to 4inches to...

I think you should think about if you are going to keep a 20gal tank or not. This hobby is so addictive and even more expensive you have to plan everything out before you make your first purchase, because once you get into it you'll find that you need bigger tanks to do different things and you...

I use the Dry-Tab MASTER test kit. It uses tablets so there's no measuring or anything. It also explains everything in detail what you need to do and what to look for. Cost $36.99. You get 20 tablets of each: Ammonia, Nitrate, Wide Range ph and Nitrite.

thanks, viking you just told me something I never even knew. I'm going to search seeding to find out more. Thanks again.

thanx, lionfish I've decided that I would abandon my personal addiction for the sake of the ray. I thought about it and nobody should even attempt to buy any animal without a suitable home for it.

WHEN I FIRST SETUP MY TANK I HAD A REGULAR SAND BASE. I'VE SINCE ADDED CRUSHED CORAL WHICH IS LOOKS GREAT BUT A PROBLEM. SO I HAVE A MIXTURE OF THE TWO. WHAT WOULD BE THE BEST WAY TO REMOVE THE CC AND I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF I COULD MIX LIVE SAND IN WITH THE REGULAR SAND?

TODAY I WAS AT FISH STORE IN ANOTHER STATE I FIGURE I STOP IN. I SAW A STINGRAY IN THERE FOR $55.00. STINGRAYS WAS MY INITIAL REASON FOR GETTING A SALTWATER TANK BECAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW THAT THERE WERE FRESHWATER STINGRAYS. ANYWAY, THROUGH FURTHER RESEARCH I FOUND OUT THAT A 125GAL TANK IS NOT...

gobylover, when I said "without a host" I was saying that because it's been three or more weeks since my grouper died(ick)and the puffer does not have it yet. I wanted to know was it possible. Maybe I didn't explain myself clearly.

Ok I had a ick outbrake. I read that ick needs a host to survive. So I'm trying hyposalinity and I'm trying to reduce the salt at a slow rate. Which is a problem because I got it down to 1.oo11 to 1.oo12 and it's really not moving. So my question is: I have a puffer in the tank that...

Mookie, I'm from north philly. I usally go to zoos in south philly and when I have time on my hands I go over New Jersey to aquarium city. They have two times the amount of saltwater fish than zoos. What's the hidden reef and where is it located because I like to go to different stores.

Ok, I admit I was getting fet up with this nitrite thing, but today it finaly dropped down to 0. It's been three months. I rushed things from the begining and added substrat, decorations and fish before its time. I admit! So, now do I slowly start to reintroduce my item back into the tank...

I hand feed my map puffer all the time he's about 7'' . He does associate my hand for food and that is a problem but it cool when you have company.

I have a 7inch map puffer. He's not on a scheduled diet right now, I've had him for two months now. At first I was feeding every day. Now for about two weeks it's been every other day. I want to know how many times a week should I feed him and how many times a day. It seems to me sometimes...

I'M NOT SURE WHAT TYPE OF LIGHTING I HAVE IT'S PRETTY STANDARD I GUESS BECAUSE IT CAME WITH THE TANK WHEN I BROUGHT IT. I JUST READ THE BULBS, ON ONE SIDE I HAVE 30 WATTS PREHEATED AQUARIUM BLUB(1), THE SAME FOR THE OTHER SIDE. ONE LAST ?, HOW DO YOU FIT ALL THAT LIGHTING OVER ONE TANK? THAT...
