    Anemone won't let go from the plastic bag

    Right now he is attached to the plastic bag but not the entire bag because I cut most of the bag so he is just in a certain section. Should I wait a few days for him to let go or should I take the entire plastic sheet he is attached to and put him on the bottom.

    I know I should set one up but I've had very good success with the last 3 fish that I have added in the past 1 1/2 years. I acclimate each fish for 45 minutes and then drop them into the display tank. They get ick and then it goes away. My Niger didn't get any. I'm sure they still have it in...

    My chocolate chip star ate my mexican snail

    Is this common? The star was on top of the snail and sucked the snail into his mouth. I used to have a common hermit crab that did the same thing so I got rid of it and gave it to a lfs for credit.
