My first thought when reading your problem is that perhaps the biological filtration may not be adequate. Do you have any live rock/live sand in...
Yeah, a large Hawaiian one I am planning on buying. I don't have any as hitchhikers on my rocks, and I like the look of them.
What is the best location for a feather duster in terms of lighting and flow? Should it be near the bottom or top of the tank, or where the debris...
If the parameters are normal, my next question is whether they had enough in the tank to eat? Was there enough algae/leftover food/detritus for a...
I'm curious to see the responses to your post...I have the same problem with my 90g - detritus on the sand that my hermits and snails aren't touching...
Is your tank cycled? How long did you have it before you added the royal gramma, and how did you cycle it? What is your biological filtration?
I noticed this morning that my mushroom leather coral did not extend its tentacles (not sure if tentacles is the right term) when I turned on the...
Not sure about the skimmers you posted. A while back I posted the same question on this forum for the same sized tank. Based on many...
The simple answer, IMO, to when to change the media....either when you start to measure phosphates in your tank, or when you start to see algae...
I am tending to agree with you guys. But tell me, those of you who do not quarantine before you put the fish in the DT - do you to a brief...
For example, I'd imagine you wouldn't quarantine a mandarin, since it would starve due to lack of pods in the QT? Sorry to rant like this...
Thanks for your reply, Da Gopherboy, but I have to disagree with you about this. Of course, I understand the importance of QT both from my many...
Are there any types of fish that should not be quarantined when first purchased? Either fish that react negatively to conditions in a QT, or fish...
Thanks guys - that makes me feel a little better. Will keep you posted on his progress.
Thanks Steve. My main concern is less about the food and more about how he just lies on his side at the bottom of the tank. Hopefully that will...
My only comment is that for a 150 gallon tank, you will need at least 2 phosban reactors. A single one is not quite sufficient for my 90g. But you...
I picked up a small hippo tang yesterday and put him in my quarantine tank after acclimating him for 30 minutes. Since then, he won't eat the purple...
My chaeto has definitely been growing since I got it a month ago. It is in my fuge with a reverse cycle 6500K 60W bulb. But my question is how is...
Update - used the Joe's juice today - worked like a charm! The aiptasie shrivelled up and died basically as I watched over 5 minutes. I am now less...
Got some Joe's juice today from my LFS. Funny thing - as I was passing through their coral section, I saw some corals (weird zoas?) that looked just...
