    Stocking 150G Reef

    Hey, thanks for responding. Yes, this is a 6 feet long tank. I didn't have success with a trio of lyretail anthias, all died within a few weeks :/. So I'm kind of stuck. A wrasse is a good idea, forgot about them and I'll probably try one of those. Sixline? Any suggestion is good at this point...

    clownfish odd behavior?

    yeah, i think the clown was just too stressed out when the big hippo came in...he was pretty small (1 inch) and hippo was 3 inches. Hippo could easily out compete him for food, clown was somewhat slow due to his size/swimming motion.

    clownfish odd behavior?

    This is a 150G tank. My occelaris clownfish was my second fish added right after my chromis. I then added a sixline wrasse a couple weeks later. During these times with these three fish the clownfish, although smaller than the wrasse, seemed to be the boss of the tank. It would swim around the...

    Koralia powerhead...controllable?

    So....i was wondering if i could hook these Controllable Koralias up to any wavemaker and the Controllable Koralias would work just as well and better than the old clattering noises the old Koralias make. I don't really want to get the Koralia Wavemaker. I am considering the "Wavemaster Pro" to...
