    red slime

    I need some help getting rid of what appears to be red slime. It grows on my rocks and on the sand. I have tried red slime remover and chemi pure, neither of which wipe it out. Any suggestions?

    The Basics of Aiptasia

    There is also a product on the market called.... you guessed it... STOP APTASIA. It is a green liquid that once opened must be kept refigerated. I tried everything to get rid of those pesky things, and then my LFS told me about the product. I swear by it now. It doesn't list what the...

    red slime?

    I have a 125 gallon FOLWR with a large lion, huma huma, grouper, niger and toad fish. I seem to grow a red slime on the rocks and the gravel. Every couple of weeks I clean it off the rocks and scrape up as much as I can off the sand. I have treated with red slime remover and chemi pure...

    Help finding food

    It seems as though the company who used to make the silversides I bought has gone out of business. I have been told by both of the LFS in the area that they are out of stock... and can't get anymore in. This is a big problem, as I have 4 very aggressive, very hungry fish who didn't like that...

    toadfish, any comments

    I think he would probably eat u're clean up crew as well. There aren't many big mean fish u can get that won't eat a clean up crew. My toad is awesome... he loves his caves and only comes out to fire to the surface to engulf a silverside. He will make his own caves, so be careful to make...

    my anemone

    I have a great big long tentacle anemone (curly-q I think) who has recently decided he wants to try and hide under my live rock. This wouldn't be a problem but he is HUGE. Alomst a foot across when hes wide open. I'm afraid hes going under there to die. If that happens, he would foul my...

    It's six feet long.... I can't get the whole thing in the pic without stepping out of the room... then the wall gets in the way. I'm sorry. Just had an outbreak of red slime too.. so things are not too pretty. I figured out what happened though. Damn timers weren't working... so the...

    tank pics

    From Day one the tangs have been great! (knock on wood). Everyone seems to keep to themselves... except at feeding time. I throw the lion a silverside, quickly followed up by one to the Huma, then the Niger then I can put in the frozen brine and mussel and such. I also put a rather large...

    tank pics

    Sorry bout the quality... cheap camera. These are pics of my 125 aggressive. The damsles in the pics are the ones I couldn't catch to get out. 2 out of 3 of them have changed color... they seem to think they are Niger triggers. My lion was kinda shy... and no chance of getting the toad to...

    eggs?

    I think my snails are laying eggs. I keep fining these little groups of bubbles on the side of my tank with little white things in them. After a week or so, the little white things get bigger.... then bigger, then thay disappear. Not sure what they are or where they go. Any ideas?

    aptasia to be or not to be

    I had a big problem with aptasia for the longest time. I got some "Stop Aptasia" from my LFS and it worked like a charm. Cost like 16 bucks for a bottle, but I still have it 4 months later and every once and a while a couple pop up, i squirt 'em and there go away. Best stuff on the market
