    Domino Damsel - love em or hate em?

    I have 5 Damsel's one of them being a Domino. He is KING of the tank. He allows the cleaner Wrasse to clean him but he will also chase him, then go right back to wanting to be groomed. He also likes to play with the Lion fish. He will literally sit on top of the lion. It looks as though he likes...

    I don't think the ick is gone completely. My Domino Damsel seems to be scraping himself on the rocks but I don't see any spots on him. My 3 striped Damsel had some spots but the went away a couple of weeks ago and haven't returned. I just keep watching them. I'm going to do a water change...

    Adding water to the tank

    I'm glad I found this forum. I'd like to ask... do you need to add a buffer to the water you're adding? I was adding water last night and didn't really know how to go about it.

    Browngreen algae take over

    Thanks for the reply SWDave. I thought about the lights being a problem. I leave them on from about 6:30 am to 8:30 pm. They are not very good quality. My husband bought them @ Homedepo (I think). By the time we got the tank and everything else he decided to go cheap on the lights. I also think...

    Browngreen algae take over

    I sure appreciate your info Na H20 and Ruaround. I spoke to one of my LFS and he told me that the tank was not fully cycled yet. What kind of snails do you recommend? Since it has taken over the tank is there any thing I can put in the tank to get it under control quickly?

    Goffy Behavior

    I am new at this hobby so this may be a normal behavior for fish. I have a Domino Damsel that seems to have an attraction to my Dwarf Lion. The Domino sits on top of the Lion. He seems to like the Lions fins to rub on him. The Lion doesn't seem to mind. I've been getting a big laugh out of...

    What to feed my lion fish?

    I just purchased a lion fish last night. The fish care taker at the store said the lion fish would eat brine, but to occasionally feed it live goldfish. I have found out that the lion will not eat brine. I don't have a problem with getting the gold fish except the town is 26 miles from me. Can...
