    Allquatics...what happened?

    Last time I was in Allquatics was months ago. Maybe 6 of them. The store was really nice. Tons of coral, tons of inverts, tons of fish. I went into the store about 2 days ago, needing some snails and crabs, looked around for about 5 minutes and walked out. The store looks like it's on its...

    Man. I was looking at my tank after work yesterday, and everything looked great. I come back in the room about 20 minutes later and everything looks great, but somethings missing. Finally I realize my flame back is nowhere to be seen...and he's not bashful. So, I keep looking, and I think my...

    How do these look?

    Outside of some orange digi and a hydnophora, these are my first real frags of SPS. I don't really know what to look for for good health, so i figured I'd post a picture and see what people said.

I've also been keeping...
