I notice some bird lovers here also :) I have 3 dogs (2 mixed breeds and 1 Boxer puppy 6 months old), 2 cats, 16 cockatiels, and 1 yellow naped Amazon Parrot. Kathy

When I got my feather dusters, they wouldn't stay put either. I went to my lfs and bought very small pieces of live rock to place on the bottoms to hold them down. Make sure the pieces of rock are not heavy enough to crush them! You need something small and lightweight. I haven't had any...

I feed my corals silversides a couple of times a week. I also dose with Kent Phytoplex as directed. I have some smart ones that have their tentacles out on occasion when I'm feeding my fish brine shrimp. I have to stand guard at the tank to make sure the corals are getting their food, though...

Something is going right if you have tons of copepods :) Also, instead of using live fish to help cycle your tank, it's been suggested to use a raw shrimp. I used a damsel when I started my tank, but I didn't know then what I know now. Kathy

Actually, I've asked questions on chevron's "club" several times when she has posted, only to get NO replies from HER. Pardon me if I sound like the a$$, but how can you possibly get a group of interested people in a matter of what, 3 weeks at most? Seems no one knows where this is going, or...

I read someplace the name of this anemone. It is called anemonia majano. I have one in my tank that was in a raspberry leather rock. He was very tiny and I got him out. He has taken up on a mushroom rock, and I feed him just as I do my other anemonies. I've had him for several months, and...

chevron tang...I asked you when you posted the first time about this club if it was going to be just a social type club, or if it was going to be like George's at Coral Connection in Kenner (propagating and selling of corals, etc)? You didn't specify what type club it's going to be...

My cleaner shrimp comes out to eat when I feed my fish brine shrimp. He loves it. I will also give him a piece of silverside when I'm feeding my corals and anemones. Kathy

There is no way I would add household anything to my tank! I wish you the best! Kathy

Yes mlm, I drive to Coral Connection :) It's really not that far. Fish Tank, in my opinion you are shopping at the best place in Mobile! I've bought the majority of my stuff from Ocean Treasures. Chuck has good quality things, and won't sell you something bad just to make a buck. I bought...

What would be the purpose of this "Aquarium Club"? Would it be used as a social gathering of Saltwater Enthusiasts? Or would it be for buying and selling of corals, etc? Something like what George has in New Orleans...propagating frags and selling them to the public? Kathy

Thanks ak_reefer! Guess I'll leave him in the glass with tank water until I get up in the morning. If he's ok to have, and he's still alive, I'll put him back in the tank. Better to be safe than sorry :) Kathy

I was just shining a flashlight in my tank to see what kind of creatures I had running about. I happened to see a small crab that was funny looking. He is white with little spots on him even on his front legs. His actual pinchers are brown, and he's dark in the center of his shell. I got him...

Be careful shopping from Rich. He has some nice things, but you'll also get things you DON'T want...like aiptasia :) Kathy

Hi Drew, There is a place in Saraland (North Mobile) that has fighting conchs. The name of the store is Ocean Treasures. They are located at 37B Shelton Beach Road...phone number is 251-675-2080. Hope this helps. Kathy

Thanks for your replies! I should have known it would be a touchy subject lol. Right now my tank is doing very well. I have a good many corals, and they seem to like what they have. I have no probs with them opening or eating. I think I'll go by the old saying "if it's not broke, don't fix...

I bought a used tank setup several months ago from a person that referred me to this forum. The person also insisted I install a UV Sterilizer to my reef tank (which I have done). Since I've been here, I've read where UV is not recommended for a reef tank. Can someone please explain to me why...

My maroons love the Bubble :) The female is forever in it. She doesn't stray too far away lol

I had 2 peppermint shrimp in my tank along with blue legged and scarlet hermit crabs. I actually caught one of the shrimp chasing a few of my scarlets. Needless to say, I went on a shrimp hunt. I caught them both and flushed them down the toilet. I had dead hermits all in my tank. So I...

Do you have the right size Prizm? I know mine is for up to 75 gals
