billrwilson: I try to keep my salinity at 1.023 specific gravity. I didn't notice any differences, though, when my it rose to 1.025.
Sorry to disagree with Jason , but I think the little air bubbles may simply be oxygen from the algae. Even if the algae on the glass is so sparce...
I have to agree with Matt and Jason. If the five fish were all you had, I'd say yes. But, you also have a lot of invert biomass to consider. I...
My Clarkii clown ignored my anemone until I introduced two Dominos to the tank. Now the clown calls the anemone home and chases the Dominos away if...
nfarocks, I looked at your other posts. You've had a string of things going on...green hair algae...nitrates.....and now dead fish. Something basic...
I'm in! This is great!

I have only one lemonpeel angel in a 45 gal tank, but after watching her for a couple of weeks, I wouldn't put another Centropyge in the tank --...
I've been testing salinity every couple of days, since I found that my hydrometer was consistantly reading high (says 1.027 when two other...
Bird lady said it first and Covey expanded: The algae is there because something is feeding it. With all of the creatures in your tank, a lot of...
I had the same issue as Fastlife. I wanted the Flame Angel, but chose the Lemonpeel mainly since it was $25 vs. $50 for the flame. The Lemonpeel...
Dwarf angels as algae eaters I got a Lemonpeel Angel four days ago, and she has been an amazing algae eater. She's cleaned off every shell, plastic...
