See if your LFS will trade it for another one. Try putting a mirror on the side of the tank. Maybe he'll be too busy fighting the reflection to bother the others. Just a thought. :D

I would go with the P.Blue. I had a hippo once and it was nerve racking to watch. It would hide or lay on its side at a drop of a hat.Any sudden movement near the tank (even feeding) would scare him. I really like him but he was like the "odd man out" in the tank. Just my experience. Im sure...

I had the same problem when I had CC. The brown stuff would make my tank look dirty.Try cutting down on how long the lights are on. I like to keep the lights on all day so I switched to GE aquarays blue bulbs.I dont have the CC anymore because of nitrate and ammonia problems. :D

I changed from CC to Southdown sand last week.I love the way it looks.It doesnt much to stir it up into the water though.Is this normal? Will it always be like this or will it eventually stay down? Does anyone else have this problem? <img src="graemlins//confused2.gif" border="0"...

Im not 100% sure. I think the modifications are for the old version of the seaclone. The new improved model comes in a green box.Im sure someone will correct me if Im wrong. <img src="graemlins//angel.gif" border="0" alt="[angel]" />

Accimate them slowly and try using Stress Zyme.I used it and I didnt lose any damsels while cycling.

I mentioned to my LFS guy that I switched to sand and he looked at me like I was crazy.He wanted to know why. He has 1 display tank with sand. I also noticed several hidden tanks with dsb. All of these tanks have that colored sand look. They keep them covered with brown paper bags taped to the...

When you say local you mean you caught them yourself. Now that I like. I live in NJ. If I could catch stuff around here I would love to put in my tank. Then again this is NJ. <img src="graemlins//urrr.gif" border="0" alt="[urrr]" />

I was thinking about putting it in my cichlid tank but then I would have left over gravel from that tank.If I ever decide to change that tank I would have to take it out again. <img src="graemlins//urrr.gif" border="0" alt="[urrr]" />

For all those who switched from CC to sand. What do you do with the crushed coral? Anyone in the Atlantic City area interested in buying it leave a message. Enough for a 55 gal.

Im going to buy some LR Sunday. The LFS is about 5 minutes away. Can I just put the rock right in? My tank has been set up with fish since Jan. <img src="graemlins//confused.gif" border="0" alt="[confused]" />

I cycled my 55gal with 2 damsels and some snails and dwarf hermits.It took exactly 29 days and the only thing I added was Stress Zyme.It can be done without losing any live stock.Im by all means no expert. This is my first experience with SW. Just my 2 cents. <img src="graemlins//angel.gif"...

You shouldve gotten a couple of net breeders. Theyre only cost about 4 bucks each. You couldve kept them there until they were big enough.Just a thought.

Yeah just letting it run. Im sorry but its the only skimmer I ever had. Im sill new to this SW stuff.Ive read that alot of people also use the bak pak and the prizm.

The newer one comes in a green box.I have one on my 55gal and it works for me.Make sure you allow enough time for it to break in.It will send bubbles in the tank until it does.Dont use additives that say the provide a slime coat or it will produce bubbles like crazy.It will produce a very wet...

Ive read that disrupting a deep sand bed can release needed traped gases. Maybe thats whats giving off that smell. <img src="graemlins//angel.gif" border="0" alt="[angel]" />

I agree with you broomer. This is their first experience with well water and they think its better than municipal water. They dont drink that either.I keep asking them where do they think well water comes from? <img src="graemlins//confused2.gif" border="0" alt="[confused2]" />

For the fish- food,vitachem,garlic elixir,and sometimes buffer. For me- Some ice cold Bud. <img src="graemlins//confused2.gif" border="0" alt="[confused2]" />

I dont know if this is the best way but it worked for me.I filled a bucket with water and a LITTLE, PLAIN regular bleach.Set the pieces in their over night. Then you can empty it out and rinse real well with water .Fill the bucket with plain water and add some declorinator. The same kind people...
