    What type of clownfiish do I have? PICS included

    This clownfish, I am assuming it is a she, since she is just a little bigger than her late tank mate. Also I noticed the late clownfish doing the "clown waggle" infront of this one. The clown in the pic (assuming female) beat the hell out of the other and he eventually died. I am looking to...

    My friend gave me 20 lbs of rock after all of his fish died. How to make it safe to put in my tank?

    So the bleach treatment that Flower suggested will eliminate any chance of carring the bad bacteria, aptasia and cyan algy from coming into my tank? Will it ruin the color of the rocks?

    My friend gave me 20 lbs of rock after all of his fish died. How to make it safe to put in my tank?

    I dont mind boiling it but the last time I boiled some rock it turned green then white and doesn't look good. Plus it made it really brittle. Any way to boil it without those negative side effects?

I finally got my tank clean to where I want it, and I have great pink and purple algy on my rocks. I dont want anything to mess it...
