looking for help picking a fish. Need reef safe that can stand up to a grown royal gramma. 36 g ....will be the third resident along with s firefish.

For keeping Hammer, zoas, palys, plate and trumpet corals, what parameter should be regularly monitored?

Any thoughts?

Thank you all for the continued help getting the hang of this! After thanksgiving I will be adding two fish to my community. In place are a royal gramma and a firefish, hammer coral and a few small zoas. Can I get some Sugestions on fish that would do ok here? It's a 36g....the only fish I just...

Well it seems that this hobby is more challenging than I ever expected. I posted a few days or a couple of weeks ago that my Lyre Tail Anthias was sick. He died yesterday while I was at work. My wife performed the services. Feeling frustrated. Here is a recap on my setup, 36 Bowfront, HOB...

My anthias, which I have been concerned about...( I texted my wife this morning from the station asking how he was! Lol ) seems to be eating. His color is good, fins look good and I watched him eat several mysis shrimp at dinner time tonight. I have seen him peeking around rock, watching us. I...

After losing my foxface about a week ago, my Lyretail Anthias is being weird. He is very lethargic, not swimming and is not eating. All water parameters are good. Firefish and gramma seem fine. Feeing cyclopeze and mysis with no interest. He can swim, and I deal looks fine. But is lethargic.

I could use some help with an ID... This guy was much more open and alive looking. I think he got nipped at by my fox face, but he is gone now. The top polyp does not want to open up much now... Anyways, what kind of coral is this?

Thoughts on this set of tests? Do the parameters look ok to y'all?

I Have been struggling with lights. I put into use an older LED setup. Looks great but as was suggested, red slime algae thrives with it... Currently on a 72 hour dark cycle as per hours of Internet research has indicated. Also limiting free nutrients.... I have only one option at the point...

I was able to set up an older LED light. It has white and blue with a combo option for both at the same time. Three fans keep it cool.... I will try to post a pic or two. The question is, would this be suitable to keep what some would consider "beginner" coral or an anemone?

Well, this is almost too much... After re-homing a bully Lemonpeel a week or so ago, my Foxface has what is pretty clearly, Popeye. Any hope of making him better without a QT tank? It's affecting one eye. He has been hanging low and chilling for a day or so, I just saw his right eye today.

Any input on a watchman? Seems like a community friendly addition by the web research. He would probably be the last to join my tank.... Currently residing: Clown Foxface Anthias Royal gramma Small CUC

Firstly, thanks to everyone for tolerating my many questions. The help and advice that I have recieved here has been invaluable. Ok, will a T5 single bulb approximately 24" long, be suitable, I know not ideal, but suitable to keep " beginner" corals? Water depth would be between 8 and 12...

So, with my Lemonpeel pretty much being a jerk, and trying to run the tank, I have isolated him. He is going to be re homed tomorrow. I have two clowns, a foxface and a lyre tail anthias. It's a 36b. Water params are good and stable. Temp is ideal and all hardware is good to go. Tank has...

I have noticed that my Foxface just does not look as bright yellow as ones I see on TV. Of course he has his normal mottled brown camo for sleeping, but generally, he seems dull. He is eating well, cyclopeez and purple algae. Just wondering if I am over thinking this.

How much powerhead should I be using for a 36 Bowfront FOWLR?

Lately, my two clowns have been acting weird. They hide all of the time. It started with just the smaller if the two. He would just hang out at the surface in a corner, on his side. Then he just hangs out there pointing down. Now, they both stay behind the live rock on the bottom. They are...

I gave a 36g Bowfront, I keep up with my water changes well. My question is, can a water change be Too Big? I normally do a 15g change once every four to five weeks... I don't seems to have any ill effects, but I am wondering.... It a fowler with small CUC and five small fish.
