    Tangs & Seaweed

    Hi, I have a yellow and Regal tang, and I'm not sure if i need to feed them the seaweed strips that I got from my LFS. They haven't really touched them (that i can tell), and the yellow tang seems to be quite content to eat the algae on the rock - would this suffice for the seaweed that they...

    Made the leap!

    I've finally made the leap to corals in my tank, i'm fairly inexperienced so i'm looking for some tips (i know it's a vague question), but just something that would help along the way. I'm also wanting to know what to buy, what to avoid, and the best ways that you have all found in making them...

    Breeding Mandarin Food

    Didn't know where to post this, this seemed like the best shot :) Basically, I have been bought a mandarin as gift, i've heard the horror stories, but i've done the research and i've been ok feeding it live brine shrimp (for now) and i have shedloads of algae on the live rock, so i'm hoping...

    Protein Skimmer

    I thought i'd share my experience with a protein skimmer just in case it helps anyone, i have fish only with live rock setup. I posted a couple of weeks ago about wether or not it was necessary to have a protein skimmer, and got some mixed replies, i already had one but it's ridiculously noisy...

    Regal Tangs

    I'm thinking of adding a regal tang to my tank, 180L - thing is I think it's too small. I was wondering how quickly they grow, as I was planning on getting a small one, and will be upgrading in a couple of years anyway. Obviously I won't be getting one if they grow really fast, as I don't want...

    Aquaroche

    I did a quick search but couldn't find anything on the forum, so I'm opening a new thread. Basically i'm after an easy to build rock formation for my aquarium, which doesn't seem to be possible without stacking rocks precariously or glueing them together. My lfs sells aquaroche rocks (Website...

    Blue Streak Wrasse

    I read the other day (http://animal-world.com/encyclo/marine/wrasses/CleanerWrasse.php) that these wrasse's are apparently really difficult to keep, and require almost expert care. I've only had my tank running for a couple of months, and introduced this fish to the tank within the first few...

    App for keeping track?

    I found this on the mac app store today https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/maquarium/id457799996?mt=12 it looks good, but it only has one review, and it's not very specific - and i'm thinking is it worth £14.99? Is there anybody out there that's used it that can review it? Or that can offer...

    Filtration Options

    I've had my tank set up for about 2 months now (180L, Juwel bio filter and protein skimmer), and everything seems to be doing well, but I absolutely hate the protein skimmer, it's ugly, takes up loads of room and it's ridiculously loud! I'm planning on getting a EHEIM external filter (probably...
