As Paul B said, breeding fish are a sign your tank is doing great. Sorry to hear about the cardinal fish, seems like there is a rash of bad luck going around right now (I don't even want to talk about mine). I am hoping that my black percs begin to breed soon. We have no space to raise them, but...

Happy Birthday Phyl, if I remember correctly this makes you 29 right?

I do love those fish, if we could only breed them we could sell them and make up the cost just like that. I think we have a new club goal. ;)

My HOB skimmer started to do the same thing (Remora C) so i took it out and cleaned the whole thing. Pull the pump apart and clean it up, some will do a vinegar bath. Calcium and build in the pump and slow it down. Also make sure the pump is connected really well to the skimmer, seems to help.

Nanos are tough to feed due to the low water volume and increase in nitrates if you overfeed. We feed daily, rotate between Rods reef and PE mysis. We do weekly water changes of 10% to keep the water quality good. Fish feed everyday all day in the wild, so I have no problem feeding them every...

I just had a fish disapear on me too, not a fun experience. No spike in nitrates/nitrities or ammonia. Pulled out all the LR (30g tank much easier) and found no trace of said fish. Silver lining: new aquascape that will make the tank easier to clean. Black could: Lost a yellow assesor basslet...

I am glad to hear you are ok, and I don't think that is going to be a new ride at Six Flags. :)

Those are amazing triggers, love those colors on the tails.

Ours took a little while to start cleaning, but when they do it is hysterical to watch. The other fish can have great reactions to the little guy jumping all over them. You can also pair them up (hermaphodites) which always adds a bit of action before they pair up. They chase each other all over...

Did you see him coming or was it more like: Why is everything on its side?

A boxfish will crash a tank if they get stressed. They have a toxin in their skin that they will relase. According to the research on them, something as small as turning on the lights or walking up to the tank can stesss them. Most people who do keep them, keep them in a seperate tank so if they...

Re: Looking to give away 1 green paly frag w/15 polyps, 2 watermelon mushrooms 0 Green palys are gone still have plenty of watermelon mushrooms left.

Actually the opposite, she has been doing it for 15 years. I just started last year.

Greg, This is my fiancee, so you are literally right around the corner (Charlie Browns).

Just remember every coral you are putting in your tank, is like putting every tank it has ever been in into your tank. http://www.the-scientist.com/2009/08/1/50/1/

We had this happen to us with an acro falling onto a sunset monti. The acro won the battle and left a big white spot on the monti with no polyps extenstion in that area. We just left it alone and made sure the water quality was very good. After a week or so it started to color up and the polyps...

If we had known that you were a deacon Bill, we would have asked. You could have married us at AO and the fish would be the witnesses. We only have a pre-nup for the corals and fish, we don't care enough about anything else. :D

After sitting through pre caena from 8 am to 5 pm today I am ready for anything at all.
