I dip everything, no matter what it is or where it comes from. It's not worth taking the chance because once it is in your tank, it is very hard to...
+1 start cheap (relatively speaking). I love saltcritters.com and you can always find people on Craigslist with hammers for sale. Torch and brains...
It's hard to see exactly what it is from the picture. It may be cyano (bad) or it could be red coraline (good). if you can get a closer picture it...
Yay I have a friend! Thats exactly what I thought it was too.
I just found this on the back of a piece of LR when I went to frag my daisy polyps. I have my thoughts on what it is, but would like someone to...
OMG! That is a White-Tipped Clamfish! They are unbelievably rare- I can't believe you got one. They are actually similar to anemone fish (aka...
Most people will always recommend to QT new fish, as you are trying to keep the fish from introducing parasites to your DT. Even if it has been there...

...further proof that you don't need to know a single thing about fish/coral to run a LFS.
Sorry for your losses. Quick question- what size tank do you have? Also, do you have a QT?
Don't worry, I will get them up. My lights were off before I got home last night, so I will get some tonight.
Do you regularly measure your water params? It may be that when you do water changes, it puts the vital mag/cal back into the water, so they take...
I've kept both hammer and frogspawn and IMO they are both very hearty. Supplimenting will definitely help growth and color, but I've had my cal/ mag...
