That is the fish Dr. Frag was talking about. Click on his link and then click on all pictures, you will see juvy colorations (like you have).
No filter pads, no carbon, the only sponges I have in there are living pineapple sponges. I have a couple small pieces of live rock in my refugium....
Mini octopus sell for $60...
def a bristle worm, not sure if it is of the fire variety. Some people say they are beneficial others claim to have seen them snacking on corals and...
I don't have any form of mechanical filtration in my tank other than a protein skimmer. You don't really need anything else IMO.
Whenever I run carbon in the sump of my 100g reef (which isn't that often) I put carbon inside a filter sock and hook it on the pipe leading to the...
The lexan I had worked fine for a couple months. When I removed the lexan pieces I left the back one in since I never look through that side anyway....
For my mantis tank I just use a clamp on light from home depot with a 5,600K bulb.
I have had great success with peppermint shrimp. I also really like having them in my tank. cool part of the clean up crew.
Makes for kind of an odd couple. The goby doesn't stand to gain anything by pairing up with a peppermint I would think. I don't think the...
I would recommend it especially if you are going to keep a peacock. They don't do well with low oxygen and you were right about them being messy...
Fairly certain it doesn't matter. I will probably be using my c-skim 1200 on this tank since it won't fit under the stand of my other tank. The...
Don't they dig in the rocks, which can weaken them? I would just take him out now. He doesn't add anything to the clean up crew you can't get with...
I am skeptical myself. I am not saying it isn't possible for a tank to cycle that quickly it is just highly unlikely IMO that a 2-week old tank with...
Same size as the sump.
I can do that. The smaller species are just as active. They are den builders too, and are in some ways more interesting than their larger cousins....
I may end up putting my c-skim 1200 on this tank since I can't get it into my other tank, and it doesn't care what the water level was.
18 x 20 is rather small for a peacock mantis. If I were you I would try to get a smaller Odontodactylus species. They are just as...
Just as a place to keep him. That way I can move him out of his 10g (and it can become another QT). The water quality will be a lot better in a...
I go fishing in the banana river lagoon in cocoa beach fl sometimes and I catch puffers all the time. They seem to really like the taste of shrimp,...
