    Thanks Mr. LLimpid... I've only had him a few days and have not seen him come out to eat... I have the foods you mentioned, maybe I'll throw some in the tank before going to sleep...

    Hi, can anyone give me some insight on the behavior of the Indigo Hamlet... I have read some stuff about it, like what it likes to eat and stuff but I just purchased one and have not seen him swimming around, he just mostly hides behind rocks and in caves... And I think he ate two of my...

    Yellow Tang

    Sorry can't make the picture bigger... The rocks were full of algae a couple of weeks ago but that's what it looks like after I got the Mexican turbo snails... Those things are amazing. There is room in front and behind the rocks, but I think I will have to sort them again cause the tang has...

    Yellow Tang

    Hi Flower! The tank is a 72 gallon bow front. Right now it's the tang and 4 small green chromis in there with about 30lbs of rock and coral in the middle... And of course my CUC. Not great aquascaping, but I can't figure out what to do with it...

    Yellow Tang

    So I purchased a yellow tang last week and its been doing fine, but I've spent the day watching the tank on and off all day. This tang seems to be nipping on the side of the tank where the adhesive is... I've been shooing it away all day but now I'm wondering if its normal... It nips on the...

    RO Water...

    Thanks Bang Guy... Flower - I purchased a 3 stage space saver unit (no holding tank) because I don't have a lot of room... Says it makes 75 gallons per day. I have a 32 gallon plastic garbage can (fish only) and I have a power head mixing the salt... I'm planning on doing a water change...

    Tank Cycling

    Thanks Sweatervest, plan on staying with it because I love to come home and be mesmerized by the individual styles of these fish… I will look at purchasing water at Walmart and some jugs… Pegasus, I guess when I do get the first aggressive fish, they will indeed have an expensive meal… Oh...
