So feeding him every day isn't really necessary? I havent tried him on frozen food, but will definately give it a go He knows that the 'little green net' = food so thats probably a good start at getting him to eat frozen. What is the best way you could recommend? And what frozen food do they...

Half the time, normally only bothers to move when i come close in the mornings - he knows its food time! He moves around 3-4 different spots normally, and changes throughout the day. He swims around for about half an hour at a time i think, then goes and sits on the rocks, or with his tail...

He tends to look at the ground rather than the top of the tank ... would this be a cause for concern?

I have a dwarf lion who is about 2-3 inches long so hes only small, i have only had tank for a week or two but prev owner of tank had him in there for about 6 months i think. He seems to sit vertical in the tank up near the corner by the overflow, and he will just sit on top of certain rocks in...

I have only had my tank for a week and a half (brought from someone) and have had microbubbles the whole time, even though prev owner didnt have any. and it is driving me nuts already! The sumps quite small and only had 1 baffle, which was a bit broken so was probably doing nothing. The drain...

Do you think it would be best to perhaps feed like this (excluding the lion as he just gets his 1 fish a day) Morning Half cube of frozen mysis shrimp And 2 1.5" strips of seaweed (from reading today, would this be what they call nori??) Night 2 pinches of pellets, or a bit more depending on how...

Oh and I give a couple of small (well about 1 1/2 inch strips) of seaweed, the stuff from sushi, the foxface and tang love it, and the others try and get some as well, hence why i give two so they dont all fight over the one

What would be better to feed than mysis? I wouldnt know?? Can't get any better pics at this stage, the only camera I have is a cell phone and it doesnt seem to like close up pics. will hopefully ahve a better one in the next few weeks.

Well we have had the tank set up for nearly a week and a half and all seems fine so far. I have a quick question re feeding the corals ... the previous owner has not put anything in the tank specifically for the corals ... should I be? He said they have been growing over the time hes had them...

Its been just over a week (last wednesday night) since we moved and everything is still going strong

I might have to give the drilling holes a shot, as ours makes quite a racket as well, are there any reasons why you would not want to drill it?

I think I have the same thing in my tank, I had my first look last night at what comes out after dark, and I could see a few different worms possibly this same as this one, but im sure mine (have a few in there) are very thin compared to it, only about 1mm, and they are about 1-2 inches long...

Hi everyone I have been having problems with microbubbles, and I feel my sump is too small for the tank i have just brought. This has been discussed here https://forums.saltwaterfish.com/t/368078/air-bubbles-throughout-whole-tank My tank is 84 gallons and it is 52 x 20 x 19 inches. We have an...

OK we had tried adding more sponge and moving a few things around to try and stop the bubbles but it doesnt seem to help. so we are still stumped. I have attempted to draw a pic for you to see if you can help - please dont laugh haha, its not the best, i think i got everything in the sump. We...

Im in a similar scenario ... i brought a tank that has a few corals and mushrooms and a range of things, and 8 fish, a cucumber, and an urchin (and a baby urchin) and it got set up and all running at 3am (im in australia, so its been going for 10hrs approx so far) and I just did water tests and...

I have done a little more research this morning and I have found that maybe our overflow isnt filled enough. The water level in the overflow (which is in the corner of the tank with holes in the bottom going down to sump) is only about half way up the tank Would this be contributing to the...
