    Nassarius Snails

    If you dont have Nassarius Snails, I would get them. My sand would be a lot crappier if I didnt have them. I have seen them come in two sizes. One is about 1" and the other is 1/2". They are diffent but the same. They are a great invert to have in your tank!

    Zoo question? Is this bad or noral

    I have read about the toxicness of a type of Zoanthea that makes things go numb or paralize even. I do have a couple of books that I can look it up in. Could you recommend any?

    Oh, sorry:yes: Yeah, people alway tried to tell me that it was a goby or a blenny and this was at a LFS as well as other people online. I have a book, and the guy who wrote the book has a PhD or something in Marine Biology. They know generally what they are talking about. Has any one had...

    Eclipse 29G need light help!!

    Sorry again, with the two lights the total of watts is 40w. You have a 29 gal. That is only about a little more than 1.2 watts per gal. You need at least 3-5w per gal. If you want coral, then I would go for the 4-5w per gal. I also have a 29 gal. I got the PC coralife retro fit. That give...

    Regals

    Yeah, they are right. I took in a Regal so it wouldnt die. I love it but I also only have a 29gal. I am planning on putting it in my dad's tank when it is been up for a little bit. Plus if you do put it in, they are a bugger to get out.:thinking:

    Help me choose which goby?

    Meadbhb, dont worry about my scooter. It is doing great. At first I was scared because it was really skinny and wasnt going after my copods. I tried every thing from live brine to mysid shrimp. My friend told me to try formula one. The scooter really liked that. Thats is what got him over...

    Help me choose which goby?

    Yeah, I am planning on moving my blue tang. Right now it is only 3 in long. It has lot of swimming space. My dad has a 180 gal that I am planning on putting it in. I know that my bio load is a little heavy. Thats why I have a skimmer, 20 gal refuge and a emperor 400. I also check my water...

    I have about 35 lbs of LR. It also depends on what type since different ones are more poris.

    how does a coral attach to a rock?

    Himandher is right. You can use superglue gel. The pile of rocks sound like a really good idea too.

    cleaner shrimp in my anemone

    I have two cleaner shrimps. I also have a small rose BTA. When I fish put the anenome in, the shrimp when right for it. They are just looking for food. They also do this with other coral that I bring in. Sometimes they get over zealous and it looks bad but should be fine.

    Royal gramma or royal chicken?

    My gramma hid for a while. I would have to stand about 10 feet away from my tank so he wouldnt swim back to his cave. Now, he is next to fearless. He will take on my small blue tang. They are great fish. They are just shy until they get to know the tank and the feeder.

    Zoo question? Is this bad or noral

    My zoo didnt start out like this when I got them. They were much greener and flat like a plate. Now they are cuped like a shallow bowl. Is it getting to much light?, Not enough? It was lower in my tank and my LPS guy said to put it up higher. A couple of months ago it looked worse. The...

    Nassarius Snails

    The snails will start eating dying fish and inverts. When animals are dead or dying they put out a different chemical and that is what is attracking the snails. Trust me, they are super great for your tank. They do the best job on your sand plus if you have a lot and you put in meaty foods...
