Hmmm, I didn't know leathers could do that! Those sweepers look just like the ones open brain corals have. Upon further review of the play I've...
I finally have the 'fuge set up the way I want it. Now I need to get some macroalgae in there! It would be great if a fellow board member was...
I don't think it's completely unheard of ... at least not when they are first introduced into the tank. How long after you put him in did he go...
You'll note that I said "from the kitchen" but nowhere did I say "return to kitchen"!
The skimmer will work better if you do, yes. I find that a rubber spatula from the kitchen works very well to squeegee the gunk out of the tube....
Jumper? Not likely. Bruce called it, he's probably hiding. They can disappear for for days ... especially when they molt.
I would guess that the cool water change did more harm than good. The sudden change in temperature was sure to be a shock to your eel's system....
I like our peppermint shrimp! The only fish I want that would jeopordize the shrimp is the Flame Hawkfish ... but he would eat all my crabs, snails,...
The damsel will be a problem only if he still wants the anemone for himself. And there are no guarantees with hosting, anyway. True Perc. or not,...
In a little 20g anything can happen with more than a couple fish. My guess is the Chromis got belligerent, and the Wrasse took him to town. Most...
Wow, I just read the instructions ... refilling the probe, replacing the probe every 18-24 months, calibration whenever your reading "looks off" ......
Joe's is essentially lime-water, or at least no better than. Lime water is just water saturated with Kalk. Since you will probably end up topping...
Heat the top-off? Heck, cool top-off water (added slowly) could go a long way to solving his heat issue! ::)
I'd be concerned about the mix of gasses extracted from the water. Even a percent or two differance in oxygen levels makes a huge difference to your...
Do you have any fans? A fan or two blowing across the water (even in the sump) will work wonders. Evaporative cooling can be very effective.
If it's new to the tank, then yes, the damsel is probably causing it additional stress. Keep them seperated if you can. Brown and stringy sounds...
GONE IN 60 SECONDS - Nickolas Cage
It looks unhappy, but not neccessarily dying. The green color is perfectly normal. What kind of "mucus" did you see?
Doesn't sound good. Can you post pictures?
His new shell may still be soft. Give it a another day or two and see if he doesn't look better.
