    plankton and rotifers

    Has anyone had any luck with breeding starfish? I was thinking of trying it because I've had an OK amount of experience with clowns and even a few tangs (mainly zebrasoma) - but starfish seem to be in a whole different category from what I have seen. Still I think it would be interesting to get...

    No Longer offering clams - captive bred is forbidden.

    I personally like the idea that captive bred clownfish, clams, pods, corals, etc. that may openly spawn, are being kept in the hobby and sold through channels other then mainstream suppliers. Not being brought in from overseas either. Saltwaterfish.com has however asked me to stop selling clams...

    Do I have the right to GLOAT!!!???

    How does this just happen - VIPER!

    You should love this. Of course I wouldn't sell it for anything less then much money, but the lines are also a lot whiter. The color got kind of masked out by the water column and clowding of the sand. I watched nearly all of these open and then this one somehow got missed. It's the only one...
