could just be the new surroundings. and she is a little stressed. and the clown isn't helping matters. lots of sea veggies with garlic, you can never have enough cleaner shrimp. i would keep a half dozen in that big tank. then they would have a couple cleaning stations. she may be to nervous to...

most city water is loaded with phosphates and that really makes the algae grow like crazy. so if your constantly doing water changes you are feeding it. try doing water changes with r.o , di, or distilled water. also get the mexican turbos, you only need a few. they are amazing cleaners

yes , about 10.00-20.00 more but they are alot better lookin. i have a black one and he eats pellet food and krill. once in awhile i will go to the sea food store and get some scallops.

flounders should be left in the ocean. and that's experience talking. i would get a couple here and there for customers that wanted them ,, and not show up to buy them, so i got stuck with them. i would take damsels and thumb them in the head then feed to the flounders with tongs. and they would...

i have had a few of them. they where kinda hard to keep. some what like a powder brown tang. your yellow tang may stress him out. sea veggies woild be his main diet. oceon nutrtion with garlic is the best bet.

i would take a garbage bag and lay it on the sand bed then pour the water in, keeps the sand bed from blowing all over. and i would lay cardboard on carpet with throw rugs on it. i have set big tanks up in million dollar homes where i could not make a mess. this worked out pretty good. and when...

big fish lotsa waste. i used to have to catch mine with a pond net it was so big. unusual the bigger he got the nicer and darker his color got ,, they usually get lighter and uglier. i would feed him a dozen damsels every two weeks

i had mentioned in another post that i tested salferet and api. i would open several new boxes and test the same tank with all different readings. i don't see any test kits being any kind of crystal ball. and these where nitrate test i was doing. i think ph and ammonia are pretty accurate. you...

your eel is going to eat the pajama cardinal,damsel, and Bahama star. i couldn't figure out what was happening to my star, it looked like it was rotting away till i looked in there late at night and the snowflake was having a snack. and he will get the shrimp. your hardiest puffer will be a dog...
