    Auto feeders

    I've heard good things about the current aquachef, but have never used it. I don't trust any of them. I personally just don't feed anything if I'm gone for a week or less.

    Nitrate nightmare!!!

    How old is your test? They can go bad and give false high readings, especially for nitrates. How much/how often are you feeding? What kind of filtration do you have?

    Global Warming. We've heated the earth so much with our carbon dioxide that the magma has become super heated and extra active.

    coral banded shrimp lost his claws.....

    Yes, they will grow back, assuming whatever ripped them off doesn't finish him off first. He has smaller sets of claws that he feeds himself with, so he will be fine in that regard.
