Ohhh i see! that's smart, yeah the rock is quite the pain to retrieve. hey nothing wrong with being lazy as long as all the work gets done, right?

My name is actually Adam. I have a cousin Alex Chilton though. Why? (He's not the musician if that's what you're thinking haha)

That's great! my clowns have been some signs too but i'm not quite sure because they've been doing it for a few months now with nothing to show for it but i'm staying optimistic!

So i've been thinking about adding a ghost eel to my tank. As of now i have 1 yellow tang, 1 naso tang (they get along fine) and 2 ocellaris clowns in my 75. The ghost eel looked like a good choice to me since they don't need a huge tank and they stay relatively small. The only thing i'm...

What was the point of the airline tubing through the bottle cap? i've heard of the whole pvc pipe. My tangs were a little shy when it came to the pipe so i rubber band it to a piece of rock in the tank instead and the devour it!

Right but how much of it once a day?

How much should i feed him per day? he absoloutely loves the stuff and i'm sure he would eat as much as i put in. What a good amount per day? He does really eat flakes or pellets. he'll take a few but he normally won't eat them so the nori is his his main meal.

Only problem with ply wood is that that'll make everything 3/4 of an inch thicker which isn't gonna looke great. ughhh

Thanks for your help. the doors i'll make on my own. i have some crappy oak in the garage that i'll use. the only reason i like the plywood idea better is because if you look back at the pictures you can see the tank is "paneled" (couldn't think of a better word to use) rather then like solid...

No no, i wasn't talking about staining the stand itself. the point of the project is i'm going to get some birch plywood, sand and stain the plywood. and cover the tank with the stained plywood. sort of like a facade of a house. like a fake front to it. so it looks like it was originally made of...

Here's what the tank looks like now.

So below are the pictures of my tank now. I absolutely HATE it (the stand and the aquascaping. but this is about the stand. i'm completely reaquascaping later and there will be another thread on that.) I find the stand so hideous that it takes away so much from the tank. the only reason i bought...

Really? how long did they do it for? i feel like 7 months is an awfully long time. what are some more signs i should watch for and how will i know when they will lay their eggs? Looks like i'm off to do some research! The only other fish i've had breed were my african cichlids when i did freshwater.

Yeah i have a 75 gallon. i know exactly what you mean. hahaha i'm scared to put my hand in to feed myt angs their nori! it doesn't hurt but just the suspense of not knowing when they're going to do it makes me crack up and then i have to take my hand out before they do it! haha. i never thought...

Not that i've noticed. but they've been cleaning the rock since i got them which was about 6 months ago. the other thing they do is like brush a little hole in the sand behind their rock. they sort of swim really fast from one side of the rock to the other (behind it) fluttering to move the sand...

so when i first got my clowns they picked this one rock in the tank to be theirs. they're always cleaning it and if my hand would go anywhere near it they would sort of swim around me. Recently they've become much more aggressive. I can't stick my hand anywhere in the tank without them INSTANTLY...

here are some pictures. the flash did some funky things to the algae so it looks gross, but trust me, it doesn't actually look like that haha.

yeah i'm at work now, i'm going to post some when i get home.

For about 6-7 months now my tank has been running and has always been very noisy but for some reason i recently snapped. I can't bare the noise another minute! it drives me crazy. Between the gurgling of the overflow, the buzzing of the protein skimmer, the trickeling of the water from the...
