Does anyone know if I can upgrade my lighting on a 12 gallon eclipse tank? I didnt do enough research before I bought it and didnt realize the 14watt bulbs arent really enough to support any corals. Everything is in the hood. Any ideas or suggestions?

no, i have vermitid nails in my tank, there are little tiny things... not sure.

I have been told that I may be able to have mushrooms and polpys... possibly zoanthids, I think? So I just found out that I have a 14 watt bulbs. I already have 3 mushrooms that I got on some LR that I bought from the fish store. They seem to be doing fine, although one of them closes up...

There are a few little things in my tank that im thinking could either be baby feather dusters or aptasia. Little white stems with white things that look like a dandelion thats dead and you can blow all of the little white things off. (sorry I dont have a better explanation) And then I have...

I agree! Tim gives excellent advice! :-D

So I ended up taking back my yellowtail damsel and traded him in to get a hi fin goby! He is the coolest thing. He stays in his little hole and I dont really see him during the day. Last night I saw him coming out and eating things in the water so I fed him some shrimp. He comes out... eats a...

I got aptasia x... it says to get the aptasia to curl around the needle and cover the oral disc or something? I thought you just stick it and inject it?

okay, should I get rid of the rocks since i noticed them so early? One of them has feather dusters on it! I've read about joe's juice. Think that will work?

There is a lady at my LFS that I really trust. I havent asked her about that yet though, but i will stick to two fish. I'm moving in october and I plan on getting a 55 gallon :-D. I am hooked already.

really only one or two more fish? I like that goby too. I was reading that they can form relationships with pistol shrimp... the lady at my local aquarium store had a red and white goby that she said is a "mated pair" with a pistol shrimp. It's the coolest thing, she fed them and they both...

As you may already know, in my tank now I have one BCS and one yellow-tailed damsel. I would like to also have two black and white ocellaris clownfish. I really like all of the different colored firefish. And I know that there are a lot of goby's that are good in nano, but my understanding is...

beautiful photos

so i tried anyway, its dead center in the pic

so I was just looking and it turns out all of them have the little feelers coming out of the top. also, i noticed a clear bodied one with feelers. its completely transparent and tiny so I dont think ill be able to get a pic of it. How can I tell if its aptasia?

Hey, i got this rock at the beach and I noticed that it had these little tubes on it. I noticed tonight when I got home from work that two of them had little aptasia-esque feeler things coming out of the top. SHould I take it out?? Sorry the pic is kind of bad, but my camera would focus up too...

that was my first thought. that they're dying and getting pushed into the same spot, but I didnt see either of them.

I have about 4 rocks that I have gotten from the ocean and they have more life on them than any of the ones I have bought. Algae... and thats how I got my Vermitid snails. :-) Who knows what else?!

yeah - i have a really good store right by my house where the lady is very knowledgable and honest with me. she doesnt just try to sell me anything, shell tell me if she thinks it is going to die.

thanks guys! Its a lettue sea slug. It is non-toxic. I think I am going to take him back though because the lady at the pet store told me he would be fine, and then i found out that your not supposed to introduce them to new tanks. It eats algae and ive got some, but not a whole lot. Ive got...

Hey guys! So my tank has cycled, ive had some life in it for a little while and I just added 9 lbs of rock! Id like to know what you think about my set up? Any suggestions? Ive got a blue damsel, a BCS, a sea slug, some feather dusters, have seen pods and a few mushrooms on a frag that I got...
