    Clownfish Hosts

    I've seen the carpets in pictures and they are gorgeous but since this is my first reef tank I won't be getting into those. Though I appreciate the suggestion! :D

    Nano Tank Questions

    If you're topping off from evaporation, the salt hasn't evaporated. Therefore your salt levels have *temporarily* raised slightly to accomodate the extra bit of salt in less water. You top off with fresh water (not necessarily tap) in order to add that extra bit of water back to compensate for...

    AARRRGGHHHH!!!!!! THEIFS

    Here's a good one for ya: I drive a '99 Dodge Neon (no great prize). I hang out with a bunch of guys that have euro-ed their whole car but they haven't convinced me yet, so factory taillights, seats, dash, everything. Last Xmas my whole family chipped in a bought me a CD player since I have an...

    Fish Help!

    Thanks for all the help! We took the sample in to the LFS and found that my tests are off by HUGE amounts. Did a big water change. Have milked the nemo through another day. But going back to the LFS tonight to see where it is and get new tests.

    Fish Help!

    His behavior has totally changed - he's usually fun loving and out in the current but now is tucked near the substrate in a corner. This is very uncommon for him even when the light is off he's out swimming and having fun. The basslet showed signs of irregular behavior too before she died so...

    Fish Help!

    I have a 30g fish only tank. It has been running for about 4 months and is stocked as much as I want. A couple weeks ago my starfish died and about a week ago my Royal Gramma Basslet died and then my Margitate (sp?) Damsel. Now my clown is showing signs of dying and I don't know what to do. I...

    Clowns and Chromis

    I just wanted to add that I have a tank-raised percula clown and a green chromis in my fish only tank, along with three other fishy mates, and they are best buddies. I only have the one chromis and he is doing great by himself (the friend we had for him died, but that is ok because he rejected...

    Handling Corals

    Oh yea - and I forgot to ask and I know this will sound stupid to all you seasoned veterans out there but just roll your eyes privately and answer me :D Do corals move on their own like anemones? Do you have to glue 'em down if you want them to stay put? Thanks all!

    How did you hear about this site?

    I actually found this site because of the popularity of the new Nano Cubes by JBJ. I saw one in the store and came home to research it only to realize I hadn't noticed who the manufacturer was or what web site they worked from. I was just trying random sayings with "nano" in them to see what...

    Handling Corals

    Ok - I am still in the researching phase but this is part of my research :book1: I know this is probably a weenie question but sometimes my girliness just shows through... :smile: I'm doing this research on corals that I want and what not - many of them talk about having stinging cells...

    Mike's new Pico....

    THAT IS ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!!!!!! I'm still doing all my pre-research into getting a 12g Cube and I'm just collecting ideas and looking at as many pictures and reading as much as I can. I don't have another tang to frag like you did but I hope to come close to that! It looks much bigger in...
