Thanks so much for the advice and sorry it took so long for me to say so... it's the end of the semester so I have almost 0 time. I got some zip ties and am just waiting for a day my stepdad can help me out with the drilling. I should definitely not be trusted with any form of power tools. I...

Hi everyone! So I've had a saltwater tank for about a year now and a couple of months ago I got a 10g half moon tank. Right now it has about 6-7lbs of live rock and I plan to get more as well. The fish I have is a chocolate clown I named Gatsby and I'm looking to get him a Daisy soon! Here is a...

So I'll give one final update on this. Today was the day I brought my trigger and eel in. I was sad to have to give them up but it really was for the best and I didn't leave completly empty handed. The guy gave me one of the chocolate clowns I had been looking at so now my little tank isn't...

Thanks. I was just at my lfs on Friday and the guy said they would be happy to take them if I couldn't find anyone myself. They're a really good place in the area with a lot of crazy rare fish and advanced hobbyists as customers so I trust that if my little guys go there they will go to a good home.

I'm pretty new to the forums and most of you don't know me so I'll start off by introducing myself. My name is Darienn and I'm a college student. Long story short I have to break down my tank because I got the opprotunity to intern/study in Washington DC for a semester which as a pre-law major I...

Thanks for all the input. I do agree I think a chorded one would be better but I will look into both options. After work today I broke down the 10g I had going; took all the water, sand and live rock out and then put water from my DT in. Here's a pic: my fish loves that stupid tiki and blue...

Thank you. I'll definitely put some filter material in right away and get an air line going asap when I get paid. Things seem to be escalating pretty quickly. Earlier today he was swimming around fine and now he is mostly sticking to the bottom of the tank and not really moving around. I'm...

So I went to feed my fish today which is normally one of my favorite things to do but I was a little troubled by what I saw. My undulated trigger seems to have some light colored, not quite white, spots between his eyes and all around that area. He's the only fish in my tank besides my about 8...

I totally meant rabbit fish... just jumbled it up a little :P

Thanks so much for all the advice! Today was a pretty good tank day. I followed your suggestion and turned the lights completly off. I'll leave them off for a few days and then turn them back on at a reduced rate. Also I went to my local fish store and I got a few turbo snails at their...

Alright I'm going to try and give you the best answers I can but I don't know all of the exact tech specs. 1. I have a few red legged hermit crabs but I know I need more so I guess I would say sort of. Do you have any recomendations for how many I should have for a 37 gallon tank? 2. No it isn't...

Hi I'm pretty new to the whole saltwater thing and I'm beginning to get really discouraged. I've had my tank running for about 10 months now and just in the last couple of months I've been having a really bad alge problem. I clean the glass all the time and literally a day or two later it's...
