I realize they are closely related, but my problem is getting the little sucker out. I have built four of my own traps and left them in there for weeks, he just wont be caught!

So...Basically I had a mantis shrimp that had every one of my fish on death row, and a homicidal Six Line Wrasse who did the same until he met his own demise. I am generally an Invert lover, the fish dont do it so much for me so I threw in a ThreeStripe Damsel and a Blue Devil, since they tend...

Thanks so much! I love them!

So, during todays weekly waterchange I noticed that my main central rock had been shifting precariously over my two sand dwelling clams. Therefore I decided to move it and make the tank look a bit deeper. I also have a bit of a hair algae thing goin' on because of the newish halides so I blew...

I would cut your light cycle before you get any animals to freak out and kill off that algae!

PS the white stuff at the top left is just a patch of filter floss I clipped over the outlet for the pump, when my water gets lower at night since I topoff in the morning, it gets a bit noisy and I'm a light sleeper.

I have a 24ap and love it, however I removed all of the blue sponge on the right, its a nitrate fest. As well as the bioballs and ceramic medium (slowly over two or three weeks) and added LR rubble instead. I opened up ALL of the vents on the right hand side and inserted loosely rolled filter...

I unblocked all of mine and replaced the sponges with filter floss, far superior results IMO. This is in an AP

Depends on how long your tank has been cycling, what have you done so far?

First off, I would get a book on Marine Aquariums, this site offers many good ones! Also, just linger or look up threads about starting tanks, it would be hard to tell you what to do. Quite honestly bigger is easier, I successfully keep two nanos, one a 6g biocube one a 24 aquapod. I have done...

Thanks so much! I love them!

At the college I took classes at for Aquaculture we had cold water systems (being on the california coast we liked to honor our locals!) anyway, we had strawberry anemones. They are VERY pretty, but OMG they spread EVERYWHERE, I mean we had them in the sumps, in the hornshark tanks, in the...

The thing that it completely depends on is the lighting you have in your tank, if you have a reef supporting SPS corals then many clams are available. Maximas are the MOST sensative and fragile, but have intense colouring. Croceas- Grow to about six inches, but always look best from the top, and...

Thank you so much! But be warned, they ALWAYS look amazing from top down shots, from the side they arent such hot potatoes, be sure if you buy them online to get a through the glass shot as well as a top down!

Thats a good idea, you can also add a little garlic juice to the mysis and let them soak in it for a minute or two, the garlic riles up the fish into eating.

Personally, if you have an LFS closeby? It is worth it to just purchase saltwater, mixing can be hard to do right. Usually its a dollar a gallon, and for all the trouble I've gone through trying to keep mixed salt aerated? Its worth it just to buy it. Of course my LFS is about 6 feet from the...

Currently there are three, a crocea, a squamosa, and a gigas.

Thank yoU! Thats what I said! My wholesaler gives me GREAT prices, I got him for $32~

Again I stress that the 70w are plenty. As for the aquapod, my temp dropped DRAMATICALLY after removing the hood to add the sunpod, it was awesome!

It's not good for your clowns either! Try mysis as well as chopped frozen marine diets.
