I got a frag about 3 weeks ago with 2 heads. Everything appeared fine, good color and opening. Then a couple days ago one of the heads was cleaned out. This morning the other is gone. Who could have done such a thing?!   This is what I currently have, Flame Angel - I know these can nip but...

I got a new tank but its former owners had a couple inverts with it. I need to get an ID on these guys since I will be setting the tank up as a reef. I want to know if the pistol shrimp will accept a gobie. I would also like to know what the giant snail is, he spends most of his time buried in...

Hello. I am on the verge of a flood here. It seems that my overflow occasionally stops and the water backs up. I noticed this last night but lucky for me it started working again right after it spilled over the top.... I am thinking that it is air "blocking" the overflow where the tubes go...

I have a Sailfin Tang that I got from ***** a couple years ago before I had anything but bad advice on this hobby. He is finally starting to outgrow my 55 and I need to find him a new home. The only downside is that he has a case of HLLD. I started to soak his foods and he is improveing but I...

I have a clownfish that I have had for a couple years, got a second about 6 or 7 months ago. They seemed to get along nicely and one day the little male just dissapeared. The thing is, before the second clown, my Clown and Phudocromis were best buds. Once there was a pair of clowns the...

Can anyone ID this coral and tell me what it prefers as far as water flow and lighting. I have had it for a couple years now and other than a Flame Angel getting a hold of it the coral has done well. I recently got a new setup and want to make sure I put it in a good location because it doesn't...

I bought a nice box of LR from SWF.com about a week ago. They shipped it out on Thursday for a Sat delv. However since I am in Memphis (where FedEx originated and is based). I got it about 1230 in the afternnon on Friday while I was home on lunch. I have been doing a 7 gal water change every...

I got a cleaner shrimp at my LFS about a week ago. He seems to be afraid of my Sailfin Tang. He just sits back behind this rock where none of the fish can get to him. Is it possible he was tank raised and has never seen a fish? My old cleaner would run around all over the place. Should I try...

I have a sailfin tang, pair of false percs, and a fridmani phsudocromis. I have been feeding... Spectrum Optimum flakes daily. Frozen Brine shrimp soaked in Kent Zoecon every couple days. Seaweed Selects Green Marine Algae about a day after the clip goes empty. I just started adding some...

I finally got some of this stuff! It's the freeze dried kind. I have a brain and frogspawn I want to feed it to. How do you feed the freeze dried cyclop eeze? Should I add water then use a turkey baster to kind of spot feed? Thanks

:help: :help: :help: I can't find one of my clowns :scared: . He was about 2 to 2.5 inches and never hides from anything. I cannot find him anywhere. I have a canopy on the tank and I looked all around behind the tank. I dont see anything on the floor and I don't have any other pets to...

I have a 55g reef with about a 25g sump. I currently have a Fridmani Phudocromis, a pair of False Percs, and a Sailfin Tang. I am going to try to find the Sailfin a new home soon because I didn't know how big they got when I bought him. Would I be able to add a Flame Angel? I really want the...

I want a lion bad but I know I cant have one in my 55 reef. Do you think I could put a fuzzy Lion in a 45 tall? I ask because I already have everything for this tank other than the live rock. If I can put a Fuzzy Lion in the 45 what tank mate could I put in so he wouldn't be all alone? Any...

After I got my setup runing I realize I needed to put a fan in the stand and canopy. It seems that the heat from my pump is heating the tank from underneath and the lights are heating it from above. It never gets more than 82 degrees so is that a problem? I am going to get a fan in the...

I have a standard 55 gallon. I think thats 48" x 13". I have a coralife 48" 4x96w PC fixture. The fixture is roughtly 48x8x2.5. I got a 400x HM that I want to put into the canopy but I cannot figure out how to fit in with the coralife PCs. I am thinking of selling the coralife fixture and...

I just got my set up running. I have a Gen-X PCX40 external pump. I did the Durso standpipes in the overflow wich has eliminated the waterfall effect, they still need some fine tuning but with the pump noise I can't hear them anyway. How do I quiet down the pump!? I tried placing it on some...
