Commensal crabs and shrimp should be fine; similar to a clownfish, they can reside in the nem's tentacles unharmed.
That would be the easiest solution if they'll take them. Otherwise, you could feed them a small chunk of fish, shrimp, clam, etc once per week. That...
That would be my first guess, just 2 sea creatures doing what they do best: Peppermint shrimp prey on smaller or short-tentacle nems, and the...
Look at the bright side- At least you only paid half-price for a Chinese knock-off; the original SeaClown isn't much better. :D Agreed. The pump...
I fail to understand your logic... I agree that a large skimmer will "not have enough organics to pull out so the foam head will go down", but if...
Some corals may benefit from the plankton, but you'll want to use it sparingly to prevent nutrient build-up. As for the trace and plus elements, you...
Congrats on the new additions... very nice. Yep, there's always one that will be a bit reclusive at first. lol
You're quite welcome. :) If you used live sand and/or rock, you'll see a lot of critters appear out of nowhere. lol. Most can be beneficial, but...
That's your typical hydroid jelly. Mostly harmless, fairly common in newly established tanks, but also short-lived in aquaria.
You've gotten a lot of great advice, here. Just a few points I'd like to touch on: 1) Rocks and sand; If the nitrates were coming from them, they...
Congrats on the new addition. Very beautiful. :)
Have a couple of those, myself. Can't remember the name, ATM. As with you, they came in my reef cleaner pack of blue-legs. Still a good CuC member,...
Tank looks great, Vinny. Congrats on the additions. I especially like your puppy- looks like some type of beagle. ;D
I, too, cannot tell by the flash card. However, you should've received a full instruction manual with your kit that provides such necessary details....
yes!
LMAO! Seriously though, removing her is probably your only option; IMOPE, fish cannot be "tamed". You might be fine with a different specimen,...
Although sps corals are not generally considered easy (as compared to mushrooms, leathers, etc), Pavona, Seriatopora, Stylophora, Porites, and...
Agreed, Reef Cleaners can recommend a custom CuC for your tank. BTW, the linkia starfish is not suitable for a 20g tank (or any reef IMO) as they...
Beautiful fish, and I agree that is a steal. At my LFS, regular ocellaris prices are $25 wild, $40 tank-bred. I see it, now. Blended right in with...
Congrats on the new mille. Very pretty, indeed. :)
