    Help new fish

    First off welcome. Secondly, very good advice to meet a fellow reefer. If that is not possible, IMO the best thing to do is visualize what you want your tank to look like in the future (full reef, fish only, what kind of corals, what kind of fish, etc.) and build it out from there. For...

    Shrimp & Goby pair question

    I meant I use a glass to scoop them out of the container and put that down low and let them swim out. I have lost a pistol to an overzealous fish, so make sure you release them low.

    Shrimp & Goby pair question

    You can try and use a cup or something to put them together but it may or may not work. Our have become seperated in the past and you just hope they find each other. Even in our 205g they seem to find each other.
