    question re: flukes

    Does anyone know how long a tank needs to run fishless (only sand, LR and snails) to be rid of flukes? It has been a month or so, but I would like to feel confident in their absence before putting the rock equipment to use in another tank. tia

    Hi, can someone help me ID this puffer? Looks very much like a stars and stripes, but there are NO stripes, anywhere. And there are those unusual black markings running uniformly down both sides. His belly is absolutely white w/ no markings. And to top it off, he is eating after only a short...

    no clam for you...

    Don't think I'm cruel for putting a little huma in with this fish. When I moved a couple rocks to this tank the huma was hiding in one, and I don't want to pull them all out to catch him. Besides, they have reached some kind of truce, don't ask me how, I thought he was dead meat once I saw him...

    wildest thing you've witnessed?

    Just interested in the crazy behaviors/incidents you've all seen in your tanks. I'll start - 1) Green moray 'popping' then eating a dogface puffer 2) Green moray swallowing half of a tesselatta before finally spitting it out - was that a WILD struggle, unbelieveable thrashing 2) Spotted moray...

    Baby dogface = picky eater?

    I bought a very cute all gray baby dogface puffer and he is the pickiest eater I have ever seen. Doesn't seem to want any prepared foods...?!? I've tried krill, silversides, form I, form II, spirulina, frozen mysis, cooked table shrimp, and all he does is pick at it. My next try will be fresh...

    who's keeping a Titan trigger?

    I have only had mine a short while and would like to know about things like growth rate, tankmates, etc... So far he only gets rambunctious at feeding time.

    ID on this bad boy?

    Any eel-heads out there that can ID this guy for me? LFS just called him a reef eel. Best guess I've got so far is a spotted moray. sorry the colors aren't better, but I just brought home and didn't have time to get a better photo.
