I'd like to trade Emperor angel. Raised him from baby, he's 6"now and started to eat bubble tip anemones and zoas.
I'm in Staten Island, Bayonne and Jersey City.
I really like this fish, and information on the web heated my interest. "Interesting colors, not shy, inquisitive."
I finally found one and put it into my semi-quarantine (separate area with shared water supply).
It started to eat frozen brine shrimp on 1st day, and in several days it ate...
'Funny' sale - before sale price of the fish (mystery wrasse) is $93, during the sale - about $125, and with %20 discount - same $93.
So, during the sale they just mark-up pre-discount price to make you think you are saving something. But in fact, prices do remain the same. Who would like to be...
I've ordered from them once about 3 years ago. Beginner's corals , xenia. they've also sent a bag of 'grunge' - some mud with allegedly all kinds of germs and micro fauna it in. At that time it worked great. Coralline growth was great. Plenty of small starfishes (not asterina).
Couple months...
Anyone tried to keep the purple tile fish?
I got one, beautiful fish, peaceful, did not see it eat, but when it adopted and started to come out in about 4 days, it had full belly. So it found some food.
I read that these like to jump. Well, apparently it jumped and hit its head on the LED...
Kelp wrasse was an active fish, curious, fearless (or dumb). During the day bright yellow, with bright red stripe. Liked to hide in sand, sometimes just head sticking out. Very cute. Had it for couple months. No problems.
Then went on vacation and tank&pet sitter apparently did not feed the...
Had to remove mine because it was too much mixed in with HA.
I drive daily NJ Turnpike from Goethals bridge to Ridgefield Park.
If you in a vicinity, please let me know.
I can either pay or trade for a frag.
Some say test for phosfates, some - for nitrates.
I have one Derasa, 2 starfish (sand sifting, and green brittle ), they survive for over two years.
Yet when I add sea hares or sea urchins (to deal w HA), they die on the 1-2 day (while eating vigorously on first), as if they are being poisoned...
Do we have a club-tested-approved strategy to rid of HA ?
I have brown hair algae, about 1" long, very thin strands, like cotton.
Hard to pull with thweezers, does not easily separate when siphoning.
Running GFO (could be expired?), have cheato insump, have 3 turbos( other died) which are also...
Yesterday I got power (in Staten Island). After running recirculating pump from time to time from my car most fish and corals are ok. Even regal angel had survived (though was belly up couple times).
If you need temp holding for fish/corals in Staten Island, I can hold it.
I have 120g with some...
Got it in the group of Luretail anthias. It looks like one, though no blue under eyes , color is lighter and it is more nocturnal, during the day hides in cave, at night - on the sand. See picture.
After change to bigger skimmer my RBTA went in hiding for a week, now I see it is very small (almost like a carpet anemone) and peeking from under the rock. At the same time GBTA is striving opening up more and my clown pair that used to be always in RBTA are now hanging in GBTA. What's wrong...
