    Fraggin this Leather Coral

    This one sounds easy. He is not attached to a rock but is just sitting in the sand. What would you call this? Pineapple Leather?

    Is there a way to stop fish from seeing you?

    I had the same problem. So what I did was...Whenever I feed, I turn off the pumps. This is a signal that they are going to eat. Problem solved. I can walk up to the tank with no problems. If the filter is turned off, everything in the tank knows its time to eat. Originally Posted by TriGa22...

    Missing SixLine Wasse

    Well this story ends on a good note. The Six Line was found last night in sump #3. He was in good health and HARD to get back into the tank. I guess he was hiding under the return pump as I looked for him 3 different times in this sump. I pulled the pump and presto! There he was. Thanks for all...

    Missing SixLine Wasse

    I'm hoping he shows up. I have checked all 3 compartments in the back. His color was about the best I'm seen in a SixLine. I had a Clown that like to jump in the back. He is grown now and stays in the tank. I guess I'll wait and see if he shows up.

    Missing SixLine Wasse

    Well I would like to get another one but I don't want to chance it either. I know that Six Line was very curious of the Emeralds when I first put them in. He would keep going up to them and bumping them with his nose. My Pistol Shrimp has been acting up also. He was messing with the Emerald's too.

    Missing SixLine Wasse

    I just checked the floor, in the sump and under the tank. It's just hard to believe that a Emerald Crab got a hold of it as fast as that fish was. Unless it was at night when he was sleeping.

    Missing SixLine Wasse

    Trying to figure out what happened to my SixLine. It is nowhere in the tank or even a sign of it. The only thing that was added was 2 Emerald crabs. They are both small with the biggest being the size of a quarter. Has anyone ever had this happen? Yesterday he had no signs of being sick or...

    Disgusting Black Stringy Algae? (pics)

    This was taken from another post. I had saved it to Word Doc. when I had the problem. Thanks "Although red slime is not actually an algae, it has very similar properties as algae does. The driving forces that cause it to grow are very similar that that of the typical algaes seen in reef tanks...
