Will do, thanks again for your reply.

Thanks for your replys. They were together for just a few weeks. This Niger was a little bitch (and I thought they were nice), though. As soon as I put him in the tank, he picked a fight with my ET puffer, but got his butt handed to him on that one. So, I thought that may have put him in his...

My Lionfish pictured below was the victim of a Niger Trigger. Do you guys think the damage to his fins will heal? The Niger is gone, and he is not getting picked on anymore (at least from what I can see). Should I be concerned, or just give them time to heal? Thanks

Lengthy, but I found this online about their reproduction cycle The larval biology of Bursatella leachii had previously been poorly studied, largely due to lack of success at rearing specimens in the laboratory (Henry 1952, Bebbington 1969). More recently, research findings by Paige (1988) have...

It looks just like a mini version of it self though...

Here are some new pics I just took... Do you think it has concentrated acid for blood??

This is a dup. thread. Sorry, but I need to get an answer asap! I just got this slug over the weekend from the LFS, and when I got home from work I saw this! I removed him from the DT and stuck in isolation in a 3 gallon pico because if he is dying I don't want him to nuke my tank. The weird...

I just got this slug over the weekend from the LFS, and when I got home from work I saw this! I removed him from the DT and stuck in isolation in a 3 gallon pico because if he is dying I don't want him to nuke my tank. The weird thing is that the thing coming out his back is moving!! Any idea...

So if I re-shim the tank, I should use wood shims, correct? Where exactly should I place them (e.g., left corner, middle, and right of corner) ? Also, is it possible to shim the tank, or is it the stand that needs to be done?

ya, it wasnt off that badly. That was what the guy at the LFS told me to use. The answer I am looking for here is wheter or not you guys think the stand will collapse or not.

I know this post showed up in another forum, but I'm trying to get as many opinions as possible. A few months ago I set up a 72G FOWLR, on the third floor of my newly built house. I contacted the builder about it before I did it and was told the weight would not be problem (I have it running...

I may just break the tank down completly. There is no where else in my house i can put it, and if the floor isn't level in the first place, wouldnt the same thing just happen again?

Now I'm not really new to the hobby, but I have a question. A few months ago I set up a 72G FOWLR, on the third floor of my newly built house. I contacted the builder about it before I did it and was told the weight would not be problem (I have it running perpendicular to the floor support...

If you tested the water that came out of the bag that the fish was in, isn't it possible that the fish being in there could have fouled the water up a little bit? He may have secreted some waste in there.
