This is normal, Puffers have so much personality. Mine chases his reflection in the glass, bites the rocks and swims around the powerhead all the time for hours. I think your fine.

So i finished my move, took alittle over 8 hours, We merged a 55 and 46 into a 75 and took down the other 2. I bought a dust pan "plastic" and used that to scope the sand perfectly flat so i didn't disturb it. We completed the move two days ago and everything is going good. One issue we ran into...

How can i move the sand from my 46 to my new 75 without causing spikes? What would be the steps?

Yea they are more like discolored portions of his skin. But he has been perfectly find for 3 months until last week. I did a partial water change just now. I can't medicate this tank as my Choco Star is in this one. :(

That is his color since i got him. I have a QT but there is a hermit crab in there atm about the size of a baseball and if he swims to close to the bottom he is a goner.

Hello, I purchased a Marroon Clown about 3 Months ago. We'll now for the last week or so he won't eat. I can't figure this out because if he didn't eat for a week he would be dead, But now he is starting to sit on the bottom and do nothing. Para: A = 0 PH = 8.3 Nitrate = 20 Nitrite = 0 SL = .25...

Hello, I finally got my Choco Star i always wanted and today when i went to my tank to see the little guy i find a hermit crab latched on trying to bite him. After i moved him off i notice 2 scratches of sorts on him and one of his little tentacles broken off and stuck on the glass. I'm not...

Hello, Great idea for a Saltwater Tank. The 55 Sounds good for a starter, to be honest you can get a whole setup on C-List for half your budget with stand,tank,hood and filter. I would most likely start there. If you need a protein skimmer i have an extra i can mail you. One thing i can say is...

SW version of Mortal Kombat :) His finisher is stealing the shell

Nice T :) Me was bored also! This is my new clown, Do you think he is healthy?Never had one before so not sure but he is eating :) My Hermit Crab - Itchy His Sidekick - Slowpoke My New Snowflake Eel - Never had one of these either but he is eating to :) Enjoy

I just gave back a domino and 3 striped to my lfs as i had them for about 4 months and they doubled in size. The reason for me giving these two back because both of the meanies bite me and i started to bleed. But i have 2 other 3 striped that get along fine. and a velvet damsel which is nice to...

Flame Angel in a 55 would be good ?

Since we are on the subject of filtration, Im running a wet/dry and a protien skimmer and also a fuval 305. Im highly considering removing the fuval. Two reasons Maintenance is a pain in the butt and its always collecting so much crap. Will my wet/dry and skimmer with my 60lbs of live rock be...
