I seem to have a pesty cyano problem that I cant seem to get rid of. I'm pretty sure it is due to high phosphate lels. Last checked at 0.25 ~ 0.5. Can anybody recommed anything to lower these levels? I tried using "green-x" phosphate remover media in my filter, and that didnt really help...

there is a bit on this subject in the new Aquarium Fish Magazine Aquarium Fish Magazine - Is that the name of the magazine?

I would like to add a sump/fuge to my 25 gallon tank to help with the bio load aswell as have a safe place for pods to propogate. I have an extra 5 or 10 gallon tank around that I would like to use for this. Unfortunately, after about 4 hours of reading, Im still alittle confused. At the...

Here you go.

Very Nice :joy:

Can somebody please tell me what some the normal behavior patterns might be of a newly introduced tomatoe clown? How should I expect it to react? What are some of the signs that the fish may be stressed? Thanks for all the help and input. Cheers.

Thanks anyway. :yes:

Thanks Bang. Any idea, other than going to the Solomon Islands myself, where I can find some?

Hello, Im interested in getting 2 Black Onyx Percula Clowns. Are they basically the same as a percula clown with different colouring, and where can I get some?

Thank you sw65galma for the information about evaporation. I had never thought about the fact that the water evaporation would cause the salinity to change. I guess it makes sense that the water goes away, leaving behind the salt and other addiives behind making the salinity change. I seem to...

Thanks again. For the evap... I do weekly water changes, and add aditional water to make up the extra that has evaporated.

Like I had mentioned in an earlier thread, I have heard that they can be hand fed live brine shrimp. Can anybody confirm this? Will Brine shrimp sustain a mandarin, or will they be lacking vitamins, ect. and starve? I am also interested in a mandarin for my 25 gallon tank some day.

Hello. Looking for 2 Black Onyx Percula Clowns. Must be willing to ship to Canada. Thanks for looking.

Thanks for the input. I also brought a water sample to the LFS, and their findings were basically the same as mine. My PH is alittle low, and my salinity is alittle high. They think the combination of the 2 is what is most likely the problem. They recommend a water change with a lower salt...

no.... Theyre definitely dead. :nope:

Unfortunately, I discovered that my shrimp have died. I had 1 pepermint shrimp, and 1 cleaner shrimp. Both seem to have died simulanteously, which leads me to believ that there is a problem with the water. I took samples, and conducted abunch of tests. Temp - 80 Hydrometer - 1.025 ~1.026...

I have heard that the mandarin can be "trained" to be hand fed. I believe that you can feed them live brine shrimp. Not totally positive tho. I am also interested in a mandarin for my 25 gallon tank, but I also have the same problem of not having enough live rocks and pods to sustain the...

Thanks to everyone for looking. I was able to find locally. Thanks again.
