    My crabs hate me

    I have a large TV and lately I have to tune in to the "Living Seas" specials to keep them occupied. It's now just a problem during the commercials.

    My crabs hate me

    it is annoying and these crabs are over 10 years old so this has been going on since they were babies. I guess I didn't bring them up correctly. This urchin is the same problem. This is an old picture and he not only steals food from the corals, he steals the entire coral and brings them to the...

    My crabs hate me

    I have a love/hate relationship with hermit crabs. I wish they could not detect food so well. There are maybe 6 or 8 of them in my tank but two of them are over 10 years old and they are big and tough. When I feed the corals (which I do while I am waiting for a phone call) the crabs of course...

    Algae trough

    The thick slimy stuff in your fuge is probably cyano but I can't see it from here. That stuff is hard to eliminate and can stick around for months. Sounds like you have a severe problem and needs severe control methods. Your tank obviousely has too much organic matter in it either from too many...

    Question for Paul B-Anyone ??

    I am not sure but I would imagine fish eggs would be better only because they would eventually become fish and have exactly what a fish needs. I am sure crustacean eggs are fine also.

    Question for Paul B-Anyone ??

    I tried a new experiment today which did not come out exactly as planned. I am looking for a sticky food that I can feed torch corals with. I can feed the horizontal heads but the verticle ones are impossable to feed. They eat blackworms and look much better afterwards but I can only feed a few...

    Algae trough

    Ok but they are not nudibranchs. Nudibranchs are carniverous and slugs are herbifores. Nudibranches have external gills that look like feathers and slugs absorb oxygen through their skin. Two different animals. Elisia Crispata are slugs. Wierd animals also

    Algae trough

    1201139, That thing worked great but it was for feeding live brine to seahorses. Eventually we all started feeding mysis to seahorses and the demand for the feeders fell. When I get bored I write something. Here is another one...

    Algae trough

    Thats interesting as I am the inventer of an aquarium device which I patented 10 or 15 years ago. I sold over 6,000 of them before I stopped building them. I will not me making algae troughs, they are far to easy to make and anyone can make one in ten minutes...

    Mating Behavior

    I have always said that if your fish are exhibiting mating behavior they are in the best of health. There are as many varied mating behaviors as there are fish. My fireclowns just get next to each other and shake while smacking each other with their tails, my bluestripped pipefish kind of swim...

    If you want your tank to look like everyone elses, then don't do anything different.
