I almost forgot. I have a wet/dry system running, will that keep the levels from rising to deadly levels?

How long will this new cycle take?

No is a good answer. Clarkii clowns can be very aggresive over where they call home. Maroon clowns are the same. Not a good mix.

If you guys really saw what happenes to your packages... I work for a very large shipping company(I will not name it so I don't get fired) I unload the packages. Oh boy. We are not very nice and we work as fast as we can so some of the packages end up all over the place. Hey, come on now...

Right now I have an up and running 35gal. tank with some lr, inverts, an orange spot goby, and 2 clarkii clowns. Unfortunately, I am using an undergravel filter. I want to take all the lr, invets, and fish out and put it in my 10 gal for a day or so to completely clean the bottom of the tank...

I want to change to a DSB. What exactly is a plenum? Is it 100% neccessary for a DSB? What do I need to make a setup with a plenum? How do I setup filtration with or without a plenum? What i mean is, should I remove my mechanical filter, leave it their, or can it go both ways? Do i just...

I have a 35 right now, but the current inhabitants would be eaten by a lion or trigger. I have lots of shrimp, crabs, snails, a purple loster, and a feather duster that would be a nice snack for these guys. Ijust wanted to know how big I would need to go if I got one of these. I like both of...

Today I watched my clown feed his feather duster some frozen brine shrimp he was eating for dinner. I love watching him in the duster.

It is capitive breed or what I call tank raised.

what is cb/wc? And the feather duster does not seem to mind.

After 1982 pennies are not even made of copper anymore.

I just acquired 2 clarkii clowns a few days ago. One of them has called my feather duster home. I have no anenomes(sp.) or coral so I guess he settled with what he could get his hands, or should I say fins, on. Has anyone ever seen something like this. I know that if a clown has no host...

What is the smallest tank a dwarf lion can be kept in? How 'bout for a trigger?

I guess Ihave a problem. My tank is full of inverts. I do not want then to get eatten. I have a cleaner shrimp, feather duster, emerald crab, camel back shrimp, purple lobster, some snails, and a very small yellow tang. The tang is about 3 inches. I was planning on removing the tang and...

mr_wrasse, I have just ordered one from my lfs it should be in by Wednesday. How big to they get?

I was researching the dragon wrasse as a possible addition to my FOWLR tank and was looking for anyone who has had experience with this fish and wanted to know pros and cons of its addition. Any comments will be appreciated. Thanks again!

My pH is and has been for a while now a little high(8.6-8.7). How do I lower it? I have heard water changes but that hasn't worked. I use a buffer called proper pH 8.2. This buffer just makes the pH higher. What should I do.

Don't make another fish suffer. Be patient and wait until the nirties are zero, then get that clown. And to answer your question, tank-raised clowns are very hardy but not as much so as the damsels.

Your ammonia needs to be 0.00. NitrItes should also be 0.00. You want nitrAtes as close to 0.00 as possible. Ammonia and nirtrIte are very toxic to fish and especially inverts.

My parents live in Rockford and my brother lives in Island Lake if you know where that is. I go to school at the Univ. of Minnesota and usually come home in the summers but I am staying up here this summer. I come around once in awhile.
