    Mandarin Dragonets, would one do a lot of damage?

    Ive had a Mandarin for a few months now in same size tank and it seems to be doing just fine. Although my LFS seems to make getting there fish to accept frozen foods a priority not all do. Mine eats mysis shrimp better at night feeding with acintic on only along with Antennata they are the 2...

    new reef tank idea

    Make sure that table is sturdy enough to support that tank !! It may be small but it will get heavy quick when the weight of sand and Liverock are factored in to the 8lbs per gal of water that will be in there. Hope it holds up goodluck :)

    Brine Shrimp worthless as food?

    Hey Skimmedout, try looking for Mysis frozen shrimp. Its 100% better than brine and all my fish from my Antenatta to my Dwarf Angels love it, I also feed it to my Anemone. :D Goodluck.

    stocking plan- sound ok?

    If you do plan on getting the fuzzy dwarf are you getting from the same place you got the one that died on you not so long ago?? Please make sure it is eating frozen foods before you bring it home. And make sure tankmates are all bigger than he is. As my Antennata grows I see him eyeing my...

    condy ananmoe (sp) closed up??

    Dont worry Denise, your condy will do this on a regular basis. I cant tell you how many times I thought my bubble tip was dead only to have it swell up to full size again. Just keep an eye on your water readings and unless it starts to disintergrate (fall apart) it should be just fine. :)

    Hang On Protien Skimmers whos got the best??

    Thanks for the reply Fishgills ;) for the money the BakPak seemed like a good deal but its just little things that have irritated me. When you say you added the Maxi-jet to your Remora was it a simple add on ?? What actually came with the remora?? Thanks again for the info :)
