    Lion Fish Gone Nuts

    Noticed he was slashing around in the tank and a few of his spikes broke. I do not see any rhyme or reason why this happened. Is he shedding?

    Clown Tang with black spots - blotches

    Hi Beth, Thank you for all your help. The one issue with the algae sheets is my puffer literally will eat up an entire sheet so I always had to add extra. I was thinking about going reef but the issue is my tank is not deep enough. Live rock is a good idea? Only been in the hobby for about a...

    Clown Tang with black spots - blotches

    I have a hippo in there which is smaller then the clown but from what I see they do not really go at it too much.. Clown is the aggressor but I would not say its regular. My tank is 200 gallons. He literally just started eating good and swimming well after 6 days of not being too active (new...

    Clown Tang wont eat

    Bringing this old thread back life. I just got one yesterday in a 200 marine gallon tank. He is biting at my coral which is dead. Been leaving algae sheets in the tank at all times for when he starts to graze.

    Clown Tang and Puffer

    He never bothered the blue hippo tang, I honestly think he saw that long tail and said that looks like something I would eat. He eats pretty good and this has happened before at night with a previous tang I had. I am gonna feed that puffer a little more and see what how it goes. If I see that...

    Clown Tang and Puffer

    Just got a clown tang which is a large size. Noticed this morning that a small piece of his tail was missing. The piece is laying on the bottom so I am guessing it did not taste good. It was definitely my puffer, when that clown came into the tank puffer was giving him the "can I eat this dude"...

    Did not have a female bird wrasse at LFS. Said that no one buys them cause they are brown/grey. May get one later, did not have a fox face either. I ended up going with a large clown tang. He is patrolling as we speak. =)

    Thank you for all the recommendations, I have been looking at the fox face and actually considered a female bird wrasse. I think i am going to with the wrasse and see how that goes. I should get one around the same size? Mine is about 5-6 inches long.
