    what are these?

    Of course my next question is, what do I do about it? I've written to wetwebmedia, they usually respond quickly but haven't answered my question (it's been over a week). I've checked their site and it seems like there are different answers depending on who is on duty for the day. I've been...

    what are these?

    Hi again, I wish I had something to offer besides questions! Anyway, now that my tank is starting to produce strange creatures, it has me nervous, I never know what is good or bad. I keep seeing long, hair-like "feelers" that are definitely alive. They wave around, but retract into the LR...

    Two new guys...make that three thousand

    Well, since I've only seen one flatworm so far and I don't have much in my tank yet (as far as fish and inverts go), I think I'll wait a bit and see what happens. Apparently I've had a huge increase in the copepod population, which I think the flat worms like. I read wetwebmedia a lot and they...

    Two new guys...make that three thousand

    This morning I found two new creatures in my tank. The first was moving around on the glass (like a snail without a shell) and was about the size of a grain of rice. The second is a small almost feather-duster looking thing that is growing up next to my button polyps. It retreats very...

    Electric Orange?

    Steven, It's especially cool since I was only charged for a scarlet reef hermit. :twisted: Man, I spend sooo much money there! Why did I pick such an expensive hobby? Also, this crab has pretty light purple fuzzy hairs on its legs. See? Sorry the photo's so large. ~Krystin

    Damn Damsel!

    I bought some of the frozen cubed food (mysis shrimp and some other mix) I fed the sun polyps tonight, they are eating and looking real fat. My question is: How do I know when they've had enough? One of the guys at the links you sent me to said he gave them two full cubes. I've only...

    What are the reasons for needing to get rid of some of your fish? ~Krystin

    Search function

    When I run a search, after I view the first posting that I'm interested in, I can't go "back" I get a "This page cannot be displayed" message. Then, I have to re-type my search words and start over. Is there a way to go back without using the main toolbar or is there a problem that could be...

    Damn Damsel!

    Actually, I had a very easy time! I was at my night class and my husband did it all! He said it was a b*tch, and he said he had to move the LR, but he didn't say how long it took or what method he used. I'll ask him when I see him. Does it work to put some shrimp or something in a net...

    Damn Damsel!

    Incysor-That's so funny, I was just about to post the same quote from bishopmuseum before I read your reply. Glad I didn't, I'd feel pretty stupid! :oops: So, everyone, my Damsel went back to the store last night. I kind of feel sad, but I know it will be worth it. Maybe I could've spent...

    Damn Damsel!

    Incysor, Thanks, the links were helpful. Yours look very nice! Last night, more of mine opened (I think all of them) and I was able to feed at least some of them. However, the Damsel still bothered us a lot even though I had fed it plenty. It would come over and take their food and then go...

    Damn Damsel!

    Incysor, I have only had my sun polyps for a couple of days, I am including a photo, not all of the polyps have opened. From the picture, can you tell, are they fully extended? You mentioned feeding Cyclopeeze, can I feed Marine Snow? What do people think of Marine Snow? Several questions...

    Damn Damsel!

    I agree, I am not willing to let a fish control the tank. I will try what you've suggested and let you know how it goes. Could you look at the P.S. on my original post and reply to that, plz? Thanks, Krystin

    Damn Damsel!

    I have been feeding the Damsel first, but it sounds like you're saying I could just feed it MORE until it stops going after food? I was afraid of overfeeding. I'll tell you what I've been feeding it.... Usually about 3 of those little balls of New Life Spectrum all-purpose (3 x per day), and I...

    Damn Damsel!

    Hi everyone... I am having trouble feeding my new orange tube coral "it must be fed vitamin-enriched brine shrimp or micro-plankton from an eye dropper directly to each one of its polyps." The problem is that my Damsel won't leave us alone and keeps stealing the food out of their little mouths...

    Electric Orange?

    Skip, Hi! Yes, the link you sent me looks much like our crab, but then, as you said it is difficult with the common names as I did a search on Halloween Hermit and went to this link: http://www.justphish.com/saltwater/inve ... hermit.htm and this Halloween Hermit looks nothing like ours...

    Electric Orange?

    My son really wanted a crab when we went to the LFS last night. We were told it was a scarlet reef crab. But, I've looked at pictures online and it doesn't seem to fit. This crab features dark reddish black and bright orange striped legs. It also has blue eye stems and yellowish-orange...

    Pic of the week --- Top down view.

    Incysor- Thank you for the Nikon info. I was able to download the manual easily and have browsed it. Now I just have to finish writing all my papers for school so that I have time to play!
