    I have a 90 gallon. I thought about the rockwork. How long would I need to turn out the lights? What if I took the clowns out for a while and reintroduce them a bit later? Thanks

    Placing tank on its side

    I received a used fish tank, 90gal, and need to clean it out. Would it stress the tank too much to place it on its side? It looks like the smaller end walls would support the longer front and back walls. I would like to hose it out. Thanks

    Fish won't eat

    I've thought about putting him in a HT, so he can eat without having to compete, but the food just floats by him and he doesn't even try to get it...I'm not sure what to do.

    Clown not eating

    I'm feeding New Life Spectrum Marine Formula. They have always loved it. The other one still does. Sometimes I give them mysis shrimp, but they don't like that so much. The smaller one always seems a little bullied by the bigger one.

    I've had 2 O. Clowns for about 6 weeks. The smaller one hasn't eaten for about 3 days or so. He likes to hide more than usual. He still looks okay, but I'm worried. Should I be? Thanks for any help.

    Why are the shells for sale on this site charged the live shipping fees. It seems to me that those fees would not apply. Does anyone know?
