Hmm...In my experience I would whole-heartedly disagree. Chromis species are NOT schoolers they are Shoalers and there is a marked difference between the two. The primary being that they view each other as intense competitors and only come together for saftey reasons when necessary. Their...

I gave the site admin/creator his first tank... :shock:

Sounds like Cyanobacteria. Actually, it is cyanobacteria (bacteria NOT algae). Red and velvety and will cover your entire tank if nothing is done about it. It's not uncommon at all in new tanks and tanks that have some easily solved issues. First, make sure your source water for...

It looks like a small Peacock to me....it's one of the "smashers". I would be surprised (but not in disbelief) if he was able to break a glass tank. I'm thinking I like either the little JBJ 6 gallon guy, or someone mentioned a 7 gallon bow that sounds nice. I may pass on the an aquaclear...

Luckily I'm tearing down(selling) my tank(not nano) anyway since I'm moving, and he is inisiting that I take him with me along with some of his shelled "friends". I'm guessing I will just keep him on a kitchen counter top. Something around 5-10 gallons (something with a small footprint but...

Have you considered using it as a refugium for your 20G? Set up on a small stand next to your 20G? That way you could have both a fuge and that planted tank you were talking about.

I don't know if it's too late, but that many pods are a good thing. With no predators in your tank to dine on them they will breed like little roaches. I think you could certainly support a fish or two in a 20. I would just concentrate on getting a fish that tends to live in a small space in...

Rumor on the street is that you can use Arm n Hammer to raise Alk. Does anyone have any experience with this?

Flatworms My vote is leave them alone and see if they actually do any harm. Chances are they will be harmless, and I think a FW bath my do more harm than good. The only problem with a velvet damsel, is when all of the flatworms are gone....you still have the damsel in a small tank with...

Jelly That looks really nice.... impossible to keep at home.
