    pregnant coral banded shrimp

    OK, so a few weeks ago I added a second coral banded shrimp to my tank and waited for the battle - the second was part of a tank buy-out I did and wasn't sure they would get along.

    Tube anemone food

    Hello. I have 2 tube anemones in my 120 and they have been doing well - I've had one for over a year, and the other was added a few months ago.

    Small tanks harder?

    Hey everyone. I see some of you have some small tanks. Are they harder to maintain than the large ones? Do you have to carefully monitor salinity and other levels?
