Mark, feeding a varied diet is not always the answer. Different fish ned different food. A copperband butterfly does not need vegetable matter nor does a mandarin. They get the vitamins they need from the meaty foods they eat. Most tangs need greens and seahorses need live food. All of their...

I forgot. My substrait is dolomite and it has been in there long before garf was in business. It is over a RUGF

I don't even know what the topic is but the thing is made out of a PVC skeleton with cement over it. Some of it is real rocks. Here is a 3' piece that has beeen in my tank for many years. I like this stuff because it is hollow and offers a great place for bacteria. It is also practically free to...

I got the gonopora up on it's new pedistal Here is the thing in the building process And here it is on the sand.

Yes but not those gobies. I have only raised seahorses, blue devils, clownfish and bangai cardinals. The rest I just let do what they do in my tank. The bluestripped pipefish fry can't even been seen and these gobies spawn all the time, someday if I have time I will collect the eggs and raise them.

OK, I think it cycled about 10 minutes ago

Let me see, I think I have everything. I wonder if I can carry one more coral

Yes, I know, stupid title. I don't know about you guys but I like to try to keep things natural. A perfectly clean sterile envirnment is neither natural or healthy. We all have a little detritus hiding somewhere, some of us have mountains of it. This material is mostly beingn but it is composed...

Beautiful, isn't it?

Nikki those collected fish are in a 10 gallon tank with a small HOB filter and a small powerhead. No frills and just a few local rocks.

Actually, he is trying to swim through the glass like most puffers try to do

I would like to update this little sping burfish that I collected this last summer. He has grown about double in size and is about an inch and a half, up from the 3/4" he was when collected. He eats worms, clams and plankton. The butterfliesand wrasses we collected that same trip are also...

I have to look for my old Army guys. Just look at him, he is all over her like a cheap suit. Thats because she walks around with that short shell on. You can see too much leg, she is just too much for that guy little tease that she is.

Today of course is the most important day we here in America have. It is the reason we have an America. Happy Veteran's Day And I pray all of our service people come home safe soon.

One of them chased me once but his antenna would not fit through the door.

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.

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...

Here he is in his fighting posture And here he is with his little tramp girlfriend in the back. They spawn a lot right in the open with the lights on.

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...

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...
