I just wanted to share my clown and damsel. I've heard they are both very territorial fish however mine have become best friends. They're always hangin out together and they take turns surfing in the currents. It's like they're showing off for each other and they're like hey watch me do this.

Anyone know anything special about these guys. I've been told they are hard to keep and I've been told they're easy to keep. Also that they eat phytoplankton. He's been here with me for about a week now and he seems pretty happy got himself stuck to a rock so I couldn't move him if I wanted.

I've heard of people making little traps out of water bottles. Cut the top off and flip it around put it back into the other end and put food inside. It'll be hard with your limited space but it might work. Good luck. :-)

that is a very good point. we're trying to recreate something created by something much bigger then we're able to comprehend. That's why the idea of Miracle mud is so significant. it's as close to nature as currently possible (from my understanding) and we know that because it's succesful...

Sorry but I don't know much about quartz crystals or anything about chemistry really so I don't quite understand what you posted Jesse. I apologize for my ignorance. here is a side by side comparison that you asked about. http://www.ecosystemaquarium.com/html/g ... s_pg6.html yes it's...

I've been a little curious about Fiji Mud and Miracle Mud lately so I've decided to research it a little bit. really, so far it's only been a "little" bit. I read an article about total natural filtration and wanted to share it and get some feed back from the people I trust so much with my...

Thanks Jesse. I haven't ever considered running a phosban reactor for two reasons. 1. I don't really know what they do. :neutral: 2. My wife is starting to harrass me for how much money I've been putting into this thing. I've seen a link on a DIY phosban reactor made out of a Gatorade...

I'm considering using my eheim filter to run carbon and I was wondering if anyone had reccomendations of what I might want to consider putting in it in addition to carbon. It has three chambers and I'm only going to put carbon in one. Also Jesse mentioned in a thread not to use active...

you can also hit them with boiling water in a turkey baster a few times. I did this about 2 months ago and haven't seen them since. Just make sure you use water from your tank and keep clear of all other livestock. Good luck.

I'm planning on hooking up my eheim to run carbon. it seems like a waist though just for one type of media considering it has 3 chambers. Any thoughts on what type of media I should run besides carbon? Thanks.

I love the gold striped maroon. It definitely is one of my favorite. I might put one in my new tank.

So I took him back and talked with a different guy there. He said he always tells people that they can't feed them and they will die and doesn't know why the owner keeps them stocked. too bad.

Yeah I was afraid of that. It's too bad that people are so hard up to earn a buck that they'll sell creatures like this knowing that the people can't take care of them and they will die. He was fun to have for a day. Thanks.

Does anyone know what this is exactly. I know it's a color slug from the phillipines. What I'm not sure of is what it eats. My LFS just said algae but that is definitely wrong. I did a little research online and it looks like most of these type of slugs eat sponges. Anyone have some input...

does anyone use or recomend either of these two products? I'm strongly considering adding them to my fuge. One of my LFS's (Window to the Sea) swears by them.

you should be fine to get a fish. what kind are you looking at getting? from my understanding you are safe to start putting fish in as soon as your cycle completes. you've done well at introducing things slowly though. better then I did. although I didn't kill anything which I'm proud of...

Thanks Aaron. Will do. probably wont be able to get my water tested until Saturday. Anyideas on why I don't have any algae growth? I find it strange because I had and still have a healthy dose in my 12. I did start that tank with tap water though and this one I used the same water Jesse...

I asked her about the chocolate Anemone on Monday when I was there and she said that she's never seen one before and neither has anyone that has ever come in. The price is high becuase of how rare it is. i searched online for it and there was nothing. interesting. moonlights are awesome and...

I just noticed none of my pics are showing up as well. what up with that? I've turned my computer off at home. Are the pics not actually uploaded just linked to my computer? I guess I'll get it back on when I go home and see if that fixes it. :?: Thanks for the advice. I wouldn't normally...
