True, their reluctance to eat in captivity is documented. OTOH, I've had four and have never had any problems. If you get a juvie, make sure it's a...
They may be black or have a foggy appearance if they're bad. Otherwise, they should appear as clean colored glass.
With the lights off, take a close look at the diodes. With some cheaper/older LED units, especially those with 1w LEDs, the diodes become discolored...
What type of lighting do you have? If not LED, when did you last change the bulbs? PC, MH and T5 lamps lose their color spectrum and PAR long before...
You can use the wheels if you want; however, if you have sufficient live rock, they're basically redundant and something more to maintain. Also, the...
You can't really have too many corals; however, you do need to research each species. Many require a lot of space around them as they spread long...
Only had one- the Okeetee. Kept him in a 20L.
My first guess is that she was leaving rats unattended with the snake when it was refusing food. Something certainly wasn't right. Snakes are very...
Same here. I received two when I ordered my corals. I still only have two.
Would like a little clarity, myself. If you're asking about adding buffers to the top-off to maintain tank parameters where compounds are being...
Most snakes are relatively easy, but the Native American species don't require quite as much heat and humidity as those imported from tropical...
I had an Okeetee Corn Snake once. He never really liked being handled, though. Not sure if a King would be any better. Boas and Pythons seem more...
FWIW, a lot of CuC members will munch on Coralline if their diet is lacking. However, it sounds more like yours is dying and falling off; the...
FTR, the old watts per gallon rule applied to T12VHO; I only have 1.65 wpg with my T5, and I have a variety of leathers, mushrooms and polyps that...
FWIW, I have Domino, Three-Stripe, and Yellow-Tail Damsels, and after 2.5 years, they still dart into the rockwork when they see me- unless I'm...
Did you buy the tank used like that? If so, make sure it's clean under the plenum. Gunk will build up there if the tank was overstocked, overfed,...
FWIW, many wild-caught fish carry dormant ich parasites in their gills which are only "awakened" when the fish become stressed. A QT doesn't help...
Agreed. Probably not what you want to hear due to appearance, but the best solution is don't do anything. As already mentioned, it will disappear on...
It wouldn't. Barnacles are filter-feeding detritivores. In the wild, they fare best in murky water or in areas where the mud/sand gets stirred almost...
I've had food thaw on the way home from the LFS plenty of times. Never seemed to hurt anything.
