She is in a 25 gallon tank with a 6,000K actinic and a 10,000K actinic. My water parameters are good except that my nitrates are around 20. My LFS said that she should be able to tolerate that, but definitely can't go any higher. How do I bring those down? I did two 10-gallon water changes over...

I've had a Bubble Tip Anemone for about three months. It seemed to be doing fine until about three weeks ago. It stays very small. It used to move its tentacles around alot, but doesn't seem to do that as much. I have a sebae clown that lives in it, but the clown won't feed it. I try to feed...

My clown fish has an ulcer-looking sore on its mouth. It's been there for about three weeks. I was told to remove the carbon from my filter and treat my tank every day with Melafix. Today is the seventh day of that treatment and the ulcer is still there. I don't know what to do to help it. Any...

I have had a red hermit crab (saltwater aquarium) for about two months. It had a successful molt last month. Two days ago, he came out of his shell. We assumed that he was looking for a larger shell. We had a hard time finding one that we thought would be big enough. We put two new shells in the...
