    2 gallon pico

    Do you think this'll work? I took a small tupperware put a bunch of holes in it, took all the shrooms (man they got beat up) placed them on their own small piece of rubble, put the tupperware over them, basically now they dont move much at all but there is some flow through the container. I just...

    2 gallon pico

    The filter is just a small one i had laying around. I just have two pieces of rock in it and a filter pad for mechanical filtration. I had it off yesterday because it created to much current in the tank and was wipping around the shrooms, well it happened again today. The tank is made out of...

    2 gallon pico

    Thanks, i'm hoping within a few months they really grow out and fill up the tank a bit more. What else would I be able to keep with the current stock and lighting? I love frogspawns but i dont think i could keep one correct?

    what is this? a worm?

    I was surprised... i paid 12$ for orange ricordia 16 for blue, and 8 for a red mushroom and 35$ for shipping... None of the coral is bigger than an inch diameter, so i'm a little dissapointed but they were fine as far as shipping and all goes.

    what is this? a worm?

    i was able to easily enough get them off the rock (they were hardly attached). I placed them where i would like them and am hoping that they will attach within a week or so. I shut off the filter for now (just provides water circulation its a 2 gallon tank).

    what is this? a worm?

    the ricordias are so small im thinking i'll just take them off the rock and put them onto the rock already in my tank. Any suggestions on how to do this, i've read just using something and carefully pry them off, can i use super glue or do i NEED superglue gell to glue them onto the rock?

It was maybe 1 1/2 -2 inches long and very very thin (maybe like 2 hairs thin), i put the light over the container and he ran into a rock, next time he pops out i'll get im into a small tupperware...

    Anyother Ranchers out there ??

    wont let me edit. appears that they are dwarfs, just so you know they will not grow to 3 inches. Dwarfs dont get much bigger than an inch at full size, also they are not easy to care for. They require live brine shrimp and special care needs to be taken with their tank to make sure they are safe.

    Anyother Ranchers out there ??

    what species of seahorses do you have there? Unless they are dwarves they need to be in a much bigger tank. And if they are dwarves then you should have a stocking ratio around 5 pairs in that size tank. Do like the macros just hope you know what your doing with those horses.

    Sump Fuge lighting

    compact fluorescents, just get the daylight rated ones (they're at 6500K) and easily found at HD or Lowes and you can get them equivalent to i think 90 watt and 75 watt.
