    Reef Packages vs Buying Individuals

    The thing I don't like about the packages are that they give you animals together that would never see each other in the wild. It's cool to get 3 different types of snails but if I was to get them I would want them to be somewhat related. Why would I was Atlantic snails, Indo-Pacific hermits...

    I don't have pictures but was curious to what all of you guys were using for the sand bottom. I want to do about 2-3" of sand but I don't want Florida or Atlantic sand. I really want Indo-Pacific if possible. Also is/was you sand live sand or dry sand? Thanks and I'll post some pics when I...

    Help ID these claws

    SOB I was looking over some other hitchhiker ID's and I think that this is the crab. Little POS. How can I get him out? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Now I think I might know why my Fire Fish dissapeared about 6 months ago and why my bristle star is missing an arm.
