    how do you know when an anemone is about to host a clown?

    I just got a carnation anemone two days ago. Today my black and white clown has been burying his nose into the anemone, laying flat in it and wiggling around and then hovering around it, but he seems a little hesitant. Is he asking for the okay? Is he developing a relationship here, what is...

    Please Help With Serpent Star

    I have a serpent star, and he doesn't do much, but if you put some mysis shrimp in there he will go nuts. Ours steals it from our coral. He doesn't do much except when it's feeding time. Ours was missing a leg when we bought it. (we got a discount) it is growing back wonderfully now. I...

    How many tangs can you have in a tank?

    of tangs can live together in a large enough tank, if you limit it to just two or three different ones. Thanks for your advice.

    How many tangs can you have in a tank?

    How many tangs can you have in a tank, not of one specie, but of all different species. Can you have a Naso, a Chevron, a purple Sailfin, a blue atlantic and clown tang all in one tank if it is a big tank, such as 225 or 250 gallons?

    Is this a torch coral?

    I'm sorry, I should have been more clear. The tentacles weren't out, it didn't look like it is suppose to when we bought it. When I said "it wasn't at the store when we bought it" I meant, it wasn't healthy looking. I am an idiot. In the store it was located in their display tank right near...

    Is this a torch coral?

    There are a lot of tentacles sucked into the branches. They don't come out very far. I don't think it is very happy. It wasn't at the store when we bought it, I should have known better. Maybe I can nurse it back to health.

    Is this a torch coral?

    The person at the lfs told us that it was. However it does not look like any that I have researched. What do you think? And if not, what is it? Thanks in advance.

    Talk me out of it!

    Our flame does not bother our corals. And I think it would have plenty of room in your tank. We had a powder blue and it died after only a few days. They really are very sucseptible (sp?) to ick, but they are beautiful. Good luck.

    What is this thing?

    Yes he has a hermit crab looking shell, but he's long and he has one long thick "tentacle" that goes straight up. Very strange little creature.

    Anyone have a lawnmower blenny?

    Every lawnmower I've ever had has taken a few days to get use to the tank. They eventually come out and are a lot of fun to watch. They lurk in funny places, and if you get a cleaner shrimp, they will make friends with it and allow it to clean him.

    AHA!!! I have PICS, now can you help me identify?

    No, I have tried every setting in every angle. I have taken a million and these are the best ones that I could get to transfer onto this website. Someone in another website said they look like turnicates, I think. Kind of like a sea squirt? I don't know, I"ve never seen anything like them.

    Best clowns for bubble tip

    In my experience, the maroon clowns take to the bubble tip anemone immediately. Ours stayed in it, and at all the fish stores we go to, the maroon clowns are always hanging out in the bubble tip.
