DO NOT : show off your $100+ dollar fish to the wife...WHEN she notices it, just tell her that those other 2 fish must have mated.... yea.....mine didn't believe me either!

Are they really that aggressive. SWF does recommend only one per tank, but after having mine for over a year now, I'm getting the urge to buy more clowns since they are so much fun. I have a 240gal reef setup and the tank is 8'-0 long and my maroon stays to one side. Is there a chance at...

now the you mention that, it does hang aroung the right hand 1/3 of the tank. he's pretty rambunkshious when the food hits the water, but they all are. perhaps if the new clowns were the same size or bigger, and on the opposite side, maybe it'd be ok.

i noticed back before i bought my gold stripe that it suggest keeping only one per tank. i've had it for 5 months now and everything is going good. it's in a 240gal with plenty of live rock and swimming space. does the suggestion of one per tank mean gold striped maroons, or clowns in...

DO NOT let your 3 year old put the family dog in your 240 gal., just because "he looked hot daddy".... DO NOT take your skimmer scum and tell your wife you're going to make "an awesome chowder with this internet recipe i found"...... DO NOT use any other online store.....SWF.com is all any of us...

Yea.....it Came From Tampa Bay. Him And His Bigger Brother Really Messed Things Up, But It Was Several Months After Everything Was Up And Running That I Noticed Some Empty/smashed Shells. Then Another Few Weeks Before I Noticed I Had Lost Control Of The Balance In The Reef.

Although I see your point 1journeyman, it really wasn’t necessary to delete those negative posts. I read them and their opinions are just as valid as the rest. If they had done some research into my experience, they would have seen that I’m a long time aquarist but short time reef keeper...

I had 2 big nasty crabs that killed off nearly all of my 240gal cleaner crew. over 100 blue legs, 3 serpent stars and over 100 snails. i have gotten rid of the crabs, but now i have this stuff all over. did a 50% water change, and all the stats of the tank check out at normal. i understand...

yep....i got it. not sure what type it is, for sure, but it seems like the same stuff that forms on the glass, but it's all over one rock, and 30% of the sand. the blue legs and cuckes snack on it, but i'm afraid that it's growning faster than they eat at it. also, my hoses have gotten a...

i'll tell you something else.....it is super frustrating, to glance in at night and see a little gorilla crab, using and abusing one of my blue legs. i wish there was something that could be put in the tank that would elimiate those things.....chemical or otherwise. sometimes, they turn to...

any ideas? i've looked online, but i can't seem to find one tha closely looks like this one. also....does anybody know the sturdiness of it. i have awesome lighting, but i only just started the whole coral/invert era.

yea....i'm cycling a 240 gal and realized i had mantis problems. found 2 shrimp on different rocks....fw dipped them and out popped a pistol in one, and a mantis in the other. put the pistol back, and let the mantis duke it out with some gorilla crabs i had in a bucket. now....i see i have...

id this bad boy, if you can. and....for a tank with crabs, shrimp, clowns, tangs, gobies, coral and other community fish......what foods are we talking about. i turned to the food page in a magazine andgot lost in the types and brands. surely somebody had already walked this road and id...

ahem......*cough*....

also......did the freshwater dip, my 2 worries from the snapping noise turned out to be one mantis shrimp, and one pistol shrimp. p.s., mantis just climbed into the net. hehehehehe

ophiura, here is a better shot of my unknown animal. it appears to crawl around in the sand, then climb onto the rock and stays in one place for a day or 2. then it will move to another spot on the rock. also, i did see a teeny-tiny star on the rock. are there any bad stars i should look out...

i'm looking at the jagers too. have we heard anything good or bad about them?

anybody had problems with these things giving the water a charge? i have 2 300w in a 240 gal. little by little over the past few days, there has been current running through the water. by process of elimination, i found out last night, that when the heaters are in, they provide quite an...

also, when i plug my heaters in, and touch the water.....lets just say it's an electrifying experience. an ideas as to how this could be happening. on another note, there's the old *snap*, *popping* noise coming from 2 different areas. i know it's 50/50 either a pistol shrimp or a...
