    Puffer fish not eating *video*

    My stars and stripes hasn't ate for nearly two weeks, any suggestions to help him eat would be great. I've had him for nearly six years (he was 5 when I adopted him from my local shop). The puffer was with an emperor angelfish for 3.5 years but I donated the angel to the Newport Aquarium in...

    Emperor and Wrasse have HLLE

    Quick Background. I have a 125 fish only. It's been running since August '06. The only fish I had in it was a stars and stripes puffer (over a foot) until about a year ago when I added a green bird wrasse. Then last April I added an Emperor Angel. When I first got the wrasse I noticed what...

    Quick Background- I put my Emperor I got off this site into QT, he's beginning to change into an adult. He is in a 20 gallon long. In a few days he will have hit the 4 week mark.

    Starfish Sick

    I have had a Green Brittle Starfish in my wet/dry filter that sits below my 125 for over two years. Every few days I feed him frozen krill. However lately he has began to shrink in size and his arms are getting shorter. I have tried to hold the krill under him but he doesn't want to eat it. Any...

    Nova Extreme X2 T5HO Fixtures

    I have a 125 FOWLR. It has standard Flourescent bulbs. The tanks been set-up for a couple years now and the live rock has lost the majority of its purple and better looking color. Rather than adding "Purple Up" I was just thinking about picking up a set of cheap lights. I don't plan to grow...

    Could this work?

    I'm looking to make my third and final addition to my 125 FOWLR. Currently I have a X-large Stars and Stripes Puffer and I green bird wrasse. I would love to get a larger sized angel but have decided to wait until I have a larger aquarium that would be able to house him. I was thinking of adding...

    Cut on Puffer? (pics)

    I just noticed tonight my Large Stars and Stripes Puffer has dark line about an inch in length. This really sucks because I have a feeling it has something to do with the recent addition 2 weeks ago of a green bird wrasse. I had the puffer alone in the 125 for over 2 years and finally introduced...

    Puffer Tank-mates

    Green Bird Wrasse/Tank questions

    Rather than create several threads I'm going to try to keep all my questions just in here. I recently picked up a Green Bird Wrasse (around 6 inches). I have him in a qt tank right now. He is very active and eating brine shrimp/krill. I have noticed some dark brown spots on both sides of his...
