I am in the midst of building a 125 gallon reef and plan to keep a mix of anthias, gobies, and chromis together in there. I am interested in hearing peoples experiences with different species of anthias. Which ones to get and which to avoid in terms of the easiest to keep, temperment, easiest...

I just wanted to get some feedback before I get started here. My goal for the tank is to be an SPS only reef tank with about 10-15 fish (Anthias, Chromis, Gobies) and some basic inverts like shrimp and snails. Here is what I have in play so far: 125 gallon acrylic tank with 2 overflows and 4...

I'm pretty clueless on how to work one of these things. I owned one in the past, was never able to figure out how to use it, so I ended up selling it and buying my RO water from a local water company. After being out of the hobby for a few years, I am getting back in now, and want to have a...

Looking for some feedback here. My main goal is to have a lot of smaller things in the tank to look at, and to keep a very peaceful mix. That said, with a 125 gallon tank, I feel like I need some quantity of fish so it doesn't look empty. Here is the stocking list I have in mind right now in...

I got up this morning and found my 10" Golden Puffer lying on the floor. I cleaned the tank yesterday and apparently forgot to put half of the lid back on. Anyway he looked dried up and dead, but then I saw him move his eye to look at me and a fin moved. He was pretty dry and I had to scrape...

I just purchased 10 ricordias and I want to attach them to rocks before I add them to my tank. Any advise on how to best attach them? Mesh, fishing string, rubber bands, other? The more details the better. Thanks in advance!!!

I'm lost on this one. I have had the same 7 fish in my aquarium for 6 months, all doing fine. (3 chromis, 2 clownfish, 2 firefish). The problem is any time I add a new fish, it disappears within a week. I added 2 yellow anthias and they both disappeared a day apart in the first week. They...

I found a tiny little nudibranch this morning on my glass. It is only about 2 milimeters long (about as long as the top of a pen cap) and it is primarly pink. It looks to have 2 small orange bands on it. Anyone have an ID? Just wandering if it is harmful and if I should remove it.
