I am really really considering getting a Blue Hippo Tang. I have a 120 gallon aquarium (4'). I am getting a 6' 180 gallon by the end of the year. I really love the blue tang. I know one of my local fish store sells captive bred blues and they are much more expensive but they always seem to look...

Here are some pics of my fish! It's been a while since I posted here everything is going well!

I remember the fish had really bad pop eye like that and spots just like that. I was cleaning the tank today and I noticed my bursa trigger and snowflake eel look good. How can I wipe the tank off the parasites but keep the fish in the tank?

Yes. All the signs pointed to velvet. quick death.It takes weeks for ich to kill. I can tell it wasn't ich look like sugar granules and the fish would breathe hard one night and be dead come morning.

Velvet has killed nearly everyone of my fish and now I have to restart. I lost all of my favorite fish which included a blue hippo tang, a blue throat trigger,a bursa trigger, a one spot foxface, and my gold stripe maroon and yellow belly dogfaced puffer. I have to start all over, what is some...

Ok. I think I will try him out and handfeed if I have too. That's good to know.... it's funny I am actually going to be ordering from Live Aquaria.... good to know. It was either a saddleback or a yellow longnose. I think I want the saddleback now.

How hard are these guys to keep? Will they do well in a 120 gallon with a one spot foxface, a yellow tang, a gold stripe maroon clown, a snowflake eel, and a pink spot goby?

Hello. I've been filling my 120 gallon aquarium with my water from my 29 gallon saltwater tank. The water I've been doing water changes with. Will this speed up the cycle and I do plan on adding atleast 30 percent fresh new saltwater. Will this allow me to add fish in February? I am setting it...

Could I keep a niger trigger in a 120 with a few tangs and a maroon clownfish?

My friend wants to give me a 2-3'' yellow tang because it is being bullied by his naso tang in his 75. I am in the middle of setting up my 120 but it won't be fully cycled until middle to late January. If I grab this yellow tang, will he be ok with 2 black and white clowns, a diamond goby, and a...

No corals in my future.

Thanks. I will make an island. I think if I do get a Hippo I will limit stock. But I am going to set this tank up right after the holidays.

My diamond goby is eating new era marine flakes, bloodworms, brine shrimp, and market shrimp. I must have lucked out. He is my favorite fish. I feed him 3 times a day small feedings. Yes I have a 3'' one, and he is doing rather well.

Thank you guys! I'm excited to finally have a large tank.. My friend was trying to tell me to get a snowflake eel but I am not really interested in them..... however, could I potentail do a few gobies? Like maybe my diamond, a pink spotted goby, and a yellow watchman?

I'm really thinking about turning my 120 gallon saltwater instead of selling it but the one thing stopping me is my limited budget, I have only about $500-$700 truthfully to invest. But I do want a bigger saltwater so I can keep my dream saltwater fish. I am thinking for this size tank I may...
