    Share your experiences with starfish?

    I've had 2 brittle stars, on a green brittle that crawled out of my tank after about 6 months. We found him on the carpet. The other was a red serpent that got a bacterial infection that ended up killing it. I have had a Echinaster echinophorus, red thorny star for about 3 1/2 months. This star...

    Some of you may remember my tank crashed pretty badly last year due to negligence. Well, thought I'd share some new pics.

    ID please

    They are finally big enough for a pic, but hard to get since they are in the 2.5 nano. At first I though keyhole limpets but maybe astreas? I do have 2 astreas in the tank.

    Hey Bang

    Remember the orang flourescing shroom you sent me? (if not you can pretend you do) It was one of the few things saved from the 135. I stuck it in my little 2.5 a few months agoand am happy to report that I now have 8 of them. They are going to make a very striking colony once back in the 135.

    shallow or bare?

    The lights are going back on in the 135. (I'm tired of only a 2.5 and a 12 g) with my beautiful 135 sitting in the dark. When we saved all we could (which wasn't much) from the algae attack in the 135 and turned out the lights we also took out the dsb. So what do ya'll think? I don't want dsb...

    135 gal tank of death

    I've been gone a while but, wanted to share my experience with my 135. My husband and I always shared tank duties. We were seperated for about 3 months and I didn't properly take care of my tank, depression, not wanting to continue to work on a joint labor of love all that yucky stuff. Anyway...

    Coral beauty acting strange!?

    All the other fish are swimming around the 135 nicely obeying traffic and staying in their lanes. My 2 year old coral beauty is swimming vertical laps up and down the back corner of the tank circling the powerhead and down again. Sometimes it swims across the tank but it keeps going back and...

    Anyone have lyretail anthias?

    I've had a male and 2 females in the tank for a week now. These are the most amazing fish. All the other fish love them and the sixline likes to swim with them. Even my tomato clown will leave the anenome and go to the other side of the tank to hang out with them. I've heard they "draw" out shy...

    Caught the nano fever!

    I started a 2.5 gal nano for at work. I used all stuff out of my 135 gallon. I've got 13 watts pc on it and a little filter that I added carbon to. Any advice would be appreciated. The inhabitants are a tank raised perc, blue leg crab, astrea snail, nassarius snail and a little scarlet cleaner...

    Got fish!

    After much thinking and researching we finished stocking the 135 today. We got 3 anthias and they are so beautiful but, hard to get a pic. I'd appreciate any advice from those who've kept the fish. I know I have to feed every day because they need to eat often. They really brighten up the tank...
