Has anyones ORA mandarin accepted pellets? I've had mine for a week and it could care less about NLS small fish pellets as they float by. It is eating pods but they are in limited supply in this tank. I was relying on it to accept pellets and/or frozen.

I picked up two maximas(2 inches) a few weeks back and placed both of them higher up in the rock work near each other. One stayed put, the other slowly makes his way down the rock work to the sand and wedges under a shaded ledge. i moved it back up once and he went right back to the same spot...

I've kept btas in the past under T-5s and their tentacles have always been long and straight. Are they more likely to have the bubble tips under halides? I have a 2x2 cube with a 150 watt 14k bulb that I am thinking about placing a bta in once i sell the rest of my sps. Is the light...

http://www.dogfoodanalysis.com/dog_f...uct=2292&cat=8 Do any of ya'll use this? I switched my dogs to it about a week ago after reading their previous brand was essentially garbage. They like the food but they now have the most potent gas. i never knew an odor of this magnitude existed that...

A friends tank cracked and he needed me to house his yellow tang until the LFS opened. The eel is about 2 ft and the tang was around 3-4 in. We put him in the fimbriateds 90 figuring it had a better shot in there than with the dragon. We were wrong.

was feeding the damsels some mysid when the dragon picked off a couple while they were distracted. He's eating frozen but still takes a damsel when he gets the chance

Are copperbands hit or miss when it comes to aiptasia? Joes juice and similar products seem to be more of a temporary fix. I've tried peppermint shrimp, no success. I was going to try berghia nudibranches but the LFS said a copperband would be a better option. Going on a week and the...

i would like to get a jap dragon for my 150 but from what I have read online a 180 is the minimum. Standard 72x18x28. Would this tank work for the life of the eel? Only fish in the tank.

Picked up my first mantis, the gonodactylus chiragra from the den. It has been in the tank for about two hours and has eaten 3 ceriths and 2 nass. What is a ballpark figure of how many snails these guys can take down before they are "full". Can't believe I waited this long to get one these...

Pretty sure my radiatta or volitan just stung my lunar wrasse. The wrasse has a white hole between its eye and mouth with a bit of tissue exposed and the whole left side of the face is incredibly swollen. It was swimming in circles before it vanished into the rock. It's in a 150 with about...

One of my friends last week had a little too much to drink and allegedly keyed a police car. He was charged with a HATE CRIME because "he chose the police car over other cars in the lot". Granted it was a dumb thing to do but a hate crime is a felony and this charge will royally f his life...

What chiller would y'all recommend for a 30 tall. This is my first chiller and I really have no idea about the 1/15, 1/10.... All info appreciated. The tank gets up to 83, dang ole south Louisiana.

Hoping to add a splash of color, I added 5 blue devils to my 150 aggressive. Using the logic that they were small, fast and somewhat intelligent they could survive in the rockwork. Well I was quite wrong. They lasted maybe five minutes. My tusk and bluejaw trigger seemed to work together to...

Well. after three years my gbta finally made its way into a powerhead. I removed, as best I could, the nem from the powerhead and I'd say about half of the nem was destroyed. I changed the carbon and did a 10% water change. The nem is pretty mangled but still attached to the glass. What is...

I added an Australin tusk to my 150 a couple of days ago and it is doing fine. I took a few aggressive hermits(they were large and decimating my snails) out of my 55 for him to chomp on. I have been patiently waiting for him enjoy his live snacks but to my dismay he is ignoring them. The tusk...

If I had a wad of extra cash laying around I'd be all over this http://www.marineconservation.org.au...ve_page_id=592

I am getting a 150 delivered this Saturday. It is going to be a reef with softies and sps. I could use ya'lls help on which pumps to use. I am either going with hydors or an ecotech but i am unsure on the amount to buy. I am happy with the hydors on my 55 and 75 but have been considering...

i was wondering if any of yall had tried one of these. they claim to remove all nitrates and convert it into nitrogen gas which would apparently remove the need for constant water changes. i saw one on an auction site but it is pretty expensive and i was wondering if they work enough to cover...
