That was the point I was going for, I love them in my 12g but I could never imagine them in a very large tank. I have also heard they like to go after clams (ancedotal have not heard it anywhere else). Mine are fun to watch in the 12g and are very active come feeding time.

Zoos are very finicky, much tougher than most people think. There could be numerous issues, I will list a few that I have run into. 1. As mentioned above asterinas. If you have them in your tank they are probably going after your zoas. They can attack one or two polyps which can get infected...

Pom Poms can be very cryptic, especially in the day light. We saw ours the most when we had our moonlights running. What tank are you putting the bumblebee shrimp in?

Copper and prazi are fine, not sure with the melafix. http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1627147

OK time for some more updates. Some good news in here and some bad news in here: Let's start with the good: Corals look very very good. The bi weekly water changes have really helped stabilize the tank and the corals are loving it. Everything is happy and the corals that were burned in the...

Also want to give a big thumbs up to both Nate and Sunny here. To nate for knowing he can't keep the corals right now and passing on them at the moment. To Sunny for honoring the deal with Nate at a later date and offering up a new winner. Also since nate selected the powder blue we can...

Hopefully not a late april fools joke. Don't sell it, we have all seen what your next move is the second it is out the door.

+1 White stringy poop is usually and internal parasite and prazi is the best method.

First off go out and buy a refractometer, if you are going to be mixing your own saltwater it is essential. As I personally found out if your salinity is off then you are just working uphill (especially when you think it is fine). There is a little something screwy with your alk and ph...

It will be a mystery as the site of all three is very elusive. Usually happens when large amounts of hard liquor are consumed (generally by all) then no one can remember if it actually happened and all the photos are just a bit too out of focus.

I will take full credit here because as first you were not even going to put the screen top on the tank when you were doing the canopy rebuild. Once I saw you took the screen top off and were not paying attention I snuck and took my shirt off which just scared the fish right out of the tank...

Test Alk first, different salts can have different levels of alk and softies can be very sensitive to a big swing in alk. For the future, when switching salts do it gradually. I assume you meant 90 gallon tank and 15g (when adjusting for water volume lost to sand and rock) could be over 20%...

Sorry we missed it guys, Nikki came down with the flu monday and I came down with it on Thursday. Needless to say you did not want the two of us around you yesterday. Glad it went well for everyone involved.

Even though the captive bred ones are more expensive initially, they wind up being cheaper because they don't die like that and you have to replace them. I know Trop gets in captive bred (which is still a ride for you) and they are generally 25-30 bucks a piece (and with the discount they are...

Happy birthday

Greg at reef to reptiles has had a bunch. Last time I was there he had a golden dwarf, snowflakes, and several others.

This has happened to me all too often.

A dip in revive will knock all the crab off and it safe for the coral. The problem is it will kill the good acro crabs so if you want to save them you have to pull them off before the dip.

The candy pistols are good diggers but nowhere near the tigers. We have one with our yasha pair right now in our 12g and he has burrowed out a good bit but now he seems pretty satisfied with it. They stay much smaller than the tigers but are good shrimp.
