Reminds me of a lizardfish, might be one. As Vinny said, more pix would help. Also, if that fish is swimming, it's not comfortable, or is lacking a...
Another consideration is that hermit crabs are opportunistic omnivores, and they LOVE snail meat. Most of the time, this is why hermits attack...
You might want to consider using a second PH and switching them using an electronic "wavemaker/alternator". This will eliminate any constant laminar...
As mentioned, a 10 min hypo bath is a good start, SG for this hypo should be 1.041. Sit the LR in a bucket with the hypo water, wait 10 mins, remove...
Yes, OFK, we use it as a supplement for fish health.
The chances of lionfishes being aquacultured are pretty darned small, as first, the eggs need to hatch, and secondly, the fish need to be gotten out...

Unfortunately, you've found that CBS don't tolerate other shrimp or fishes in their territory in captivity...they also almost always lose their...
Looks like the corner was the drain, and the other two holes were returns. Are you planning on adding an overflow box in the corner, or running bare...
Have you tried venting your standpipe? Dursos often need to be "tuned" for max quiet by venting the top of the cap, altho sometimes a slight flow...
I agree with Coralline...I prefer something with a larger grain size, such as #3 or #1 grade aragonite. Both of these options "lay down" better than...
That macro is Neomeris annulata, AKA "caterpillar algae". I've always loved the stuff, altho in a very clean reef tank, it tends not to do well due...
