I've had 2 Naso's before and one has done very well, the other was fine for about 4 months then went downhill. I would first test your water to make sure you haven't had any fluctuations in water quality. If your naso's your most delicate fish (considering your other fish, it appears that it...

Can you mix in pre-cooked shrimp with a veggie mix or should you always use uncooked. I know, I know, fish never get cooked shrimp in their nat. habitats, but I was wondering is there some reason why you wouldn't want to use cooked shrimp (unhealthy, adverse impacts, introduction of...

I bought some new LR about a year ago and now have thousands of small white (looks like feather dusters) in my sump. Most that set up shop in the tank have been consumed by the fish. I am curious as to what these "things" are. They currently avg. about 1.2cm's. Should they be cleared out of...

Kickster, I am using a rio, I think it's a 2100, but the valves on the turboflotor are completely out so that there is no restriction on the water escaping the tower. The pump is primarily needle driven in order to induct the air through the tube so I'm not sure how much impact that's having on...

Wow! Those are some beautiful fish. How long did you have the pair before they bred? Also, have you had any luck with hatching? If so, were you able to fully rear them and what did you feed, liquid rotifers?

I have recently started making my own homemade food that includes the following; fresh (from frozen) thawed peas fresh (from frozen) thawed broccoli fresh (from frozen) thawed carrots Angel Formula (sponge) freeze dried Krill Run in food processor, add zoecon (Thanks Beth!), then either add to a...

I'm glad someone started this thread. I have heard good things about ETSS and Aqua C, although if my understanding of current skimmers on the market is that the Prizm is for smaller setups (could be wrong). I have an AquaMedic Turboflotor that's rated for 150 gallons. It's been running on my...

Thanks for the replies. I'll give them a try. I have used Zoecon before, but the thought hadn't occurred to me that it could be used as a binder. Thanks again!

Does anyone have any suggestions for use as a gel binder for a veg. mix of peas/broccoli/sea sponge? :confused:

Thanks for the reply. Any long term luck with them? I am curious to know if you had success, how you were able to pull it off. To be honest, I think long term luck in my tank would be slim to none as is a fish only tank, save for the cleaner shrimp. I am looking to set up a 60gal reef tank...

Does anyone have any luck or information on the successful rearing of the offspring of cleaner shrimp. I've had two separate occasions where my cleaner shrimp have hatched, but on the first observed hatching in the tank, the fish ate up the offspring before they could seek refuge among the...

You may find this a little unusual but my brother lost a 3 inch powder blue tang ( that was definitely under the weather) in a 60 gallon tank. After digging through his rocks he found it was in a carpet anemone (about 6 inches). Good luck with your fish.
