Ive had my emerald crab for a while and after he cleaned up all the LR he looked hungry all the time so I started adding algae sheets to the tank couple times a week. He loves them and tears out a big chunk everytime I put it in.

From what I read in the Disease forum, heres my 2 cents. The QT shouldnt have any substrates (no lr/ls). You can use some of the water from your main tank to fill your QT but it will cycle as well. Not sure how to keep it from cycling. Your salinity should be as close as your main tank as...

Hi, I just got thru leavin my tank fallow for a month because of an ich outbreak. I left all my inverts in there during the time. I want to add some fish now. I put the only survivor of the outbreak back in the tank (striped damsel) and hes doing fine and not showing any signs of infection. Is...

My 2 cents from my experience. I added 20lbs of LR to my already cycled 29 gal tank that had about 10 lbs of LR. I bought the LR online. I put it all in a tub for a couple of days with an airstone in it. I then added all of it in and checked my levels every day for awhile. Never saw a spike in...

Thanks for the help. I will try it that way.

I have had this one damsel from the very beginning and he has been a bit of a pain. I even caught him once and was about to take him back but I put him back in (lol). I moved stuff around a bit after I added new fish and he hasnt been too much of a problem after that. Just added a tomato clown...

I'm pretty new to the saltwater tanks but I'm hopelessly addicted. And to think it all started when when grandma won a goldfish in a carnival. Oh well. Anyways, my question is, I have a 29 gallon tank with about 8 lbs of LR in it. I've had it running already for a few months. It has a damsel...
