    Orange Linkia-Free to a Good Home-IN MD

    I will be glad to have Peaches living in the proper size aquarium, this is great. My levels are all pristine but I just don't have anything close to the size tank necessary to support her. Did I mention that Peaches loves my algae scraper, she is obsessed with it and spends at least some time...

    Orange Linkia-Free to a Good Home-IN MD

    That sounds great for Peaches, I am so excited! Unless I get a better offer for a home (which seems doubtful because how many people have tanks that big and want a "used" linkia) you can have her (obviously I am not sure she is a girl but...). If you don't mind sharing your email address, pass...

    Orange Linkia-Free to a Good Home-IN MD

    Mumbulog, sorry I just saw that your name is Gordon, should have used your name. If you are interested when you are on your way back home in Feb I can meet you and bring you a cooler containing the linkia (forgot to mention that the star is named Peaches).

    Orange Linkia-Free to a Good Home-IN Metro DC area

    I have also posted this in the classfieds. We were given a orange linkia star and have had it for several months. My tank is way too small for the star and so I want to offer it up free to a good home-must be a large tank 75+ gallons, established, with live rock. We live in the Rockville area...

    Adding More live Sand

    Can I do the same process with live sand? I would never add live rock directly into my aquarium, is it the same issue with live sand?

    Adding More live Sand

    I would like to add more live sand to my tank (25 gallons) but because I have live creatures in the tank I am not sure if this is safe to do. I would like to add about 10 lbs of live sand because I had an issue with cyanobacteria and I removed the top layer or so of live sand. Now that it has...

    DIY Sump

    I am constructing my own and I have a fairly small tank 25 gallons. I definately appreciate the point of the air concern-didn't think about that- and I will do a restricting valve. I am not sure how well this whole project will turn out, but I am definately going to give it my best try. Any...

    DIY Sump

    I am tired of looking at all the equipment in my tank so I am building a sump (using a rubbermaid container) to fit in my tank stand. I have found a bunch of great information on the web but I am trying to figure out how strong my return pump needs to be (gph) in order to get the job done...

    how old is your oldest fish? poll...

    I inherited a largish freshwater catfish of some type and then I had it in a 75 gallon tank (eventually by itself because as soon as the lights went out it ate EVERYTHING) for about 12 years before it got way to big-basically it could touch the sides- and then I finally found someone with a...

    An Interesting Peice of Livestock

    This is not a personal decision to turn someone in or not, that is crazy! These people are breaking the law and injuring the wild population of an endangered species. I seriously doubt that the teenager forked over the 10K to purchase the turtle and the tank. By seeing his father do that he is...

    Snail Help-Asked in Fish Discussion

    Thank you so much for looking that up, that was really nice of you. That is all the information that I could find on these snails. They are really big and they have a really round shell (they look just like the escargot snails that I have seen people eat). Their bodies are huge and appear to...

    Snail Help-Asked in Fish Discussion

    I already asked this question in the fish discussion, but I am not sure it is the correct areas. Here is the information, and any help will be appreciated since I still have not seen the snails and my son who the tank belongs to is really mad at me for accepting these snails before I did any...

    Snail Help!

    We were given two sand sifting moon snails. I can't seem to find any information about these large snails (what they eat, what they do), and now they are gone. They have buried themselves in my deep (4"+) sand bed and cannot be seen. Now I think I may want them gone, yikes what can I do. Has...

    White on live rock

    Ok the picture was less descriptive than my description. Any ideas will be appreciated. One maybe important note is that I can't scrape off the white, even with my fingernail.

    White on live rock

    I need help with some weird white growth on my live rock. My live rock is covered with it. It is not filmy and it is hard. Some was on my live rock when I got it but it seems to be all over the place. My tank is 48 days old and my water parameters are ammonia, nitrate, nitrite-all 0. My...

    Water Fleas?

    Everyone has great information, but I still have a question. What is an asterina? I googled asterina, and it came up with nothing. They do look like little brittle stars, so cute, but I am just curious. My children really want to know what is in the tank, and I am also quite curious.
