Only if you do one of 2 things. 1) Have a separate pod farm, in which you grow your own abundant store of pods. 2) Buy live pods constantly from...
These are all good suggestions, which I appreciate. But my question remains whether anyone has tried the frozen pods (cyclop-eeze) on a vertical...
I might try the fish roe. So far he has turned down live brine, frozen mysis, and frozen rotifers. I may try the roe, but it just seems to me that...
I hatched a bunch of live brine shrimp to feed my new mandarin fish who is in a bare tank right now (I want to teach him to eat prepared foods). I...
I would personally lump it all together. The helpful bacteria that are multiplying in your old rock will spread to the new rock and help it cure a...
One small piece of advice, if you don't mind, is to wait a month or two before getting the mandarin. Right now you don't necessarily know if your...
Check out the following link www.karensroseanemones.com Lots of good info on that site on care of rose anemones.
HUFA? The only kind of HUFA I have sitting around is a bottle of Selcon that I use to soak my foods. Will this work? Or will it just float to the...
+1. No carbon for now. Let the tank get nice and soupy. Once the cycle is done, then do water changes, run the skimmer (I wouldn't bother with it...
If you are willing to drive into Toronto, you have a few options. You can call North American Fish Breeders (416 267-7252) and ask them to put a...

I want to try hatching baby brine shrimp to see if my mandarin will eat those while I try to up my pod population. But I hear that if these are not...
Interesting....Any idea of how I can change that balance? I have a mandarin to support. Would you recommend I simply add more live phyto, or start...
I have an absolute infestation of stomatella snails that come out at night. They are literally everywhere in my tank. And I have also recently...
Very cool. To be honest, I never knew what they were referring to when they called a fish "flashing". I love the color changing!
Thanks for the comments! I'm pretty happy with the tank. I think it's maxed out on fish (2 clowns, YTB damsel, hippo tang, yellow tang, flame...
No worries - discussion is what this board is all about. But what I actually said was to change the filter pads one at a time (as opposed to both at...
Yes...the marineland 280 is a bit better than what you have now, but not a whole lot better. To be honest, the emperor filters are great for...
Honestly, palys don't need tons of light. I would suggest you leave it where it is for a while and let it get accustomed to your tank and to its new...
A couple of things: 1) When you broke your rock, you made a mistake. The inner portions of live rock are anaerobic. This is where bacteria live...
