Long ago I remember talk about people making 'live rock' , seems like it was plaster of [hr] based. Is this so? I'd like something to bulk up the bottom of the tank w/o costing the small fortune the LSF charges for live rock. The tank is established so I don't really need the bio side of...

The 24" is a Aqua Coral c120wrs and the compact flour. are Eclipse brand 10w. I can upgrade the compacts to an Eclipse 20w that is one blue and one white bulb if that will help my ability to keep other corals and/or help the slime. Denise

I have two s/w tanks and a f/w at home. 2 f/w and a s/w at work. My bosses tank in the s/w. He is not a 'fisher' so it's mine to take care of. He has lots of wants and many of them aren't particularly easy... His tank is why I am writing.. it is a 29 gal w/ mech filter that runs w/ floss...

I should have read before I posted.. I see one down a bit that sounds just like mine. Not really an answer on it yet but I'll keep an eye on it. Can someone delete this post for me?

For quite some time on my seahorse tank there has been cream/whitish colored small growths on the glass. They are a long thin thing cured in almost a complete circle. There is probably a hundred in my 20gal tank. I have cleaned them off and they just come back. My snail doesn't seem interested...

I got my two tank raised yesterday, so far so good with them. They weren't eating last night but I don't think that is abnormal when you have just spent 2 days in a bag (fastest service from HI to NC) They are not breathing heavy and they swim and cling like normal. I'm at work now, so I'll...

I don't know much about them, I am just getting going good with them myself. The way I understand it is they just need simple low water movement with good stable readings. I have one live caught (make sure eating before buying - lots of them won't eat) that I am caring for now and he is doing...

Will seahorses eat thier young if left only with thier parents and one other seahorse, 1 crab and 1 snail?

That peaks my interst..what else do you have with these guys. I am interested in adding a few more, mine are in a 55 gal.

Do ya'll think the wrasse will try to pick on him? I'd think he can't with all those pokies

I was wondering how a pencil urchin (or other urchins) would do with a lunar wrasse and a tomato clown and a condy anemone. I know my wrasse likes snails and crabs so I'm the only clean up crew I have right now. Would an urchin be able to survive and would he hurt my other guys?

I just bought a cleaner wrasse and added him to my tank that just has a yellow tang in it. Right away he started pecking at him. The tang seems to hold still for him to do it. I assume this is normal.. please confirm..

I don't have a technical answer for you. But in my years (more fresh than salt) I've never used gloves but I wash my hands each and every time I so much as stick a finger in the tank. So far no problems.

try your lfs.. mine has a bullitien board that people post stuff for sell on it..

Thanks for the responses. I quess as long as he moves and responds to food I'll keep trying. I have a small light on this 10 gal he is in. Just a single short 15 wat bulb, plus there is the overhead flour. in the office. Should I leave the tank light off and let it be kinda dim in there? Or...

I added a lunar wrasse to my tank 2 1/2 weeks ago. Well the first two days the wrasse laid behind a rock at one of the tank, tight up against it scared (tomato clown, scooter blennie and purple lobster as tank mates) Well, the past two weeks he has been living with the purple lobster in a nice...

Man I hate this cause it was rather a long message. I have a brittle starfish that had a white looking fungus on his body and now the top layer of this body is gone. What is showing is like red seeds and when he opens his mouth to feed you can see righ through him. He has now been moved to...
