    The skimmer is coming, but the tank is only 3 months old. It does not need it yet. I want a skimmer to go in my sump. Any suggestions?

    I was told that using established water does not keep from cycling. The tank still needs to build up a bio-load. It looks really awesome. I hope it works out well. My tank is established, but I have very little critters. I'm looking forward to added anenomes and corals!

    How can you have so much stuff in a 4 week old tank? Doesn't it need to cycle and then you add slowly?

    I added them over a 2 month period. The green fish is a wolf eel. He is a very cool fish!

    The wolf eel prefers a tank of 60g or more, so my tank is fine for him. The clown trigger and volitan lion will need a larger tank down the road. Right now they are juvies. There are three types of tanks that I know of, Reef, FOWLR, and FO. This is a FO (Fish Only) tank and does not have live...

    I don't have any live rock...it is a fish only tank. It has an double biowheel filter and a wet/dry with bioballs. The Wrasse (wolf eel) is awesome. Since he is not a true eel, he does not require as much hiding places, because he spends a fair amount of time swimming around. He is probably...

    My tank is very new. Right now I only have 4 snails, 2 hermit crabs, a fire goby and a fire shrimp.

    How often do you feed your lions?

    I have a little volitan that gets feed daily. I feed him about 3 or 4 ghost shrimp until he gets a slight budge in his stomach. If I am out of live food, he will eat prawn or silversides. I also have a wolf eel, a niger trigger, and a clown trigger, so the trick for me is to make sure they...

    Want to add fish...

    I'm not worried about tank size. Before they get too large, I plan to turn the 75 gallon into a fowlr or reef tank and get a larger (125+ gallon) tank. I think the puffer is out, because they like to nip too much. I was thinking about a Manitus Grouper or Titan Trigger. Tangs and Angels are...

    Want to add fish...

    I have a 75 gallon fish only tank. Currently, I have a 4" Volitan Lionfish, a 10" Green Wolf Eel, and a 2" Niger Trigger. I also have 2 blue leg hermits. I am looking to add my next fish. I am interested in a Huma Trigger and a Dogface Puffer. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

    Volitan Lion is struggling!

    I cut back on my lighting and the water has cleared up. I tested my levels, and got Am=0 Ni=0 Na=10 Ph=8.2 Everything looks good to me. I'm know the lion died from the initial goldfish feeded. The current tankmates are doing very well and are very happy! My lfs has a lion on hold for me, so...

    Volitan Lion is struggling!

    I'm sad to say my lion did not make it. He looked like he was doing better, but when I got home from work yesterday, he was dead. My water levels are normal. I do have some cloudy water, but my guess is it's from algea. I assume he died from the initial poor feeded and could not recover. My...
