    Curious...Poll Question. How Many of Your Fish Die Within 6 Mos of Purchase?

    How many of your fish die within 6 months of purchase? I'm just curious on this...feel free to elaborate if you'd like. I've left the poll anonymous so no one sees who votes what. So, please be honest.

    Mantis Hitchhiker!

    We just got our latest shipment of stuff and seem to have a mantis shrimp in a hole in one of the rocks the coral is on. We're getting ready to break the rock to get him out! So, if anyone lives in the Charlotte, NC area wants him, please let us know!!!

    Stumped, Need Help: Fish Not Acting Normal

    The fish has died :( But all others seem just fine. We used a volt meter to test for voltage and it was reading some. But we were getting different readings with different combinations of things plugged in. So, obviously there's some, but I'm thinking that is not the cause, as it's probably been...

    Stumped, Need Help: Fish Not Acting Normal

    Thanks! I just can't understand why one fish would be so drastically affected and not the others if that's what it is....

    Stumped, Need Help: Fish Not Acting Normal

    We have 4 big powerheads and 4 small ones, as well as the return pump. I don't see oxygen being the problem nor how to add much more. The fish's breathing is normal though. He looks completely normal, no bulges, not sunken in. The only thing we saw him eat was some flake food that floated to...

    Stumped, Need Help: Fish Not Acting Normal

    Today we noticed that our Blonde Naso is not acting normal. He is sitting on the bottom of the tank and only kinda swimming around occasionally, mostly when seemingly urged to by our Sailfin. The other fish are mostly normal, other than they do seem stressed (fins up, sometimes darting around)...

    Pics From Georgia Aquarium Visit

    I enjoyed it a lot. I must say I was a little disappointed with the reef. Don't get me wrong, it was beautiful but I just expected a little more. It was definitely hard to see a lot of the areas because there were SO many people. We went during spring break so it was pretty crazy. The beluga...

    Pics From Georgia Aquarium Visit

    We visited the Georgia Aquarium this past week and thought we'd share a few of the photos we took. Enjoy!(Keep in mind, I'm not the greatest photographer like some on the site )

    We're Still Here!! And Anemone Question/Opinion

    We do spot feed, but maybe we should try some of the better foods as mentioned. Thanks.

    We're Still Here!! And Anemone Question/Opinion

    Well, we've been remodeling our bathrooms, I mean completely gutted them! So, we've actually not been home and we don't get to see our fishies for hours a day...but it's coming along. So, that's pretty much been our lives these days. But our tank is doing very well. We're actually ordering a new...

    flying home with corals?

    If I were you, I would NOT ((((NOT NOT NOT) check a FISH, ever!! Trust me! However, a coral...if you are going to risk it, make sure you do a SUPER SUPER SUPER job of packing it to ensure your bag won't bust (you'll need something hard around it). Just know that it's a big risk to do it! Those...

    Mixing Tangs (Yellow & Sailfin)

    So, we got our sailfin :) Everything is going great! The yellow tang was only mad for the first couple of hours and then he realized he was the smaller fish I suppose (this worked out well). They've been getting along ever since except for the occasional swat from the yellow. He ate the first...

    First Saltwater Tank - 55 Gallon Diary

    I really like the aquascape as well! Your tank looks very nice! But my question is, when you say it's been set up for two weeks, you mean after the completion of the cycle right?
