    Halloween Hermit Crab question.

    I seen this site has some Halloween Hermit Crabs for sale, as well as my LFS. My tank is a 29G BioCube with corals and inverts only. Do these crabs tend to cause issues?

    Rock with bubble algae and mushrooms.

    I have a rock that has bubble algae on it along with mushrooms in my 14G BioCube and would like to move it to my 29G BioCube. I don't want the bubble algae going into the 29G tank. Would it work out if I pulled out the rock, plucked off the bubble algae without breaking them, pour some RO Water...

    Flame Scallop

    I had some, lived for about 6 months. (6 months seems to be about the max in an at home tank.) I put DT Live plankton in for them. Teaspoon a day. 6Gal Tank.

    would a peppermint...

    Wow, I didn't know peppermints could be such a problem. I was just thinking about getting one. What is a good shrimp to pick up? My tank is corals and inverts only.

    Question about: Emerald Crab & Sally Lightfoot

    I was looking to pick up a Sally Lightfoot. Anything I should know first? I have a tank with a lot of inverts and corals. EDIT: Took out my Emerald Crab part of question as I have found the answer. Research for the win! lol

    Large tank with Nitrate problems (dying fish)

    In that first pic, it looked like you might have bubble algae. Its best to remove it when its still little. Just use your fingers to pick off the bubbles where they are attached to the rock. Take care to not pop them while doing so.

    FO or FOWLR. How to set up?

    I'm setting up a tank, its a 35G Cube Style take for a small, (3") dog face puffer. (Might go with a porcupine puffer.) How should the setup go? With a FO or FOWLR tank, do you need live sand or can you go with gravel? In my reef I have a clean up crew of different things but don't plan on...

    Sick clowns.

    Only had the clowns for 3 days. Its white spots, so I assume its Ich? Was looking at Chem-Marin Stop Parasite 8 oz. Is that my best shot or something better? I love this site and all you folks!

    Sick clowns.

    I have two clowns in a 29G BioCube. I have live rock and corals in the tank. I have no "hospital tank." Not sure what to do. I don't know if its Brooklynella or if its Ich. I can supply more photos if needed.

    Bristle Worm, how to get rid of them?

    for the live rock, is it ok just to get 1-2 big pieces that have a lot of surface area? Sorry, I would have responded sooner but I didn't see new posts to topic, I guess my wife was on and clicked it. lol I will get to work on fixing this with your advice. Very thankful!

    Yellow Watchman Goby in 29G BioCube?

    I have a 29G BioCube that I plan to put a lot of corals and inverts in. It also has two Ocellaris Clownfish (aka False Percula Clownfish) in it. We were wondering how well a Yellow Watchman Goby would work out, or are there better options for interesting fish with great personalities? Thanks a ton!
