    New fish (3 weeks ago) still not eating/hiding

    I would wrap nori to a piece of live rock using a rubber band. Place the rock close to an area that allows good access to food but also cover. This will give the fish a sense of safety. As the fish learns that the rock = food. You will be able to move the rock anywhere in the tank and the fish...

    I read that the chocolate tang can grow to be 9-10inchs in length. I would like to stay under the 6inch range.

    I moved out of that tank a lionfish, foxface and a tang. They have all out grown the small tank. I will be adding small fish only to the 150.

    I wont get any more tangs. My foxface is very aggressive and is very picky about her tank mates. I know if I get a tang when it get bigger it will have to be moved. So, it would be best not to add any fish that cannot live in a smaller tank.

    The eel wont be any problems. His main diet is suppose to be sea urchins, shrimps and crabs. He has never touched any of my sea urchins and I add cleaner shrimp after removing the lionfish. I do feed my lionfish live food twice a year and the eel had no interest. It was only the lionfish that...

    The only fish I am keeping in this tank is my zebra eel. I also have a few soft corals; two mushrooms, long polyp, xenia, hammer and a doughnut coral. Of course the CUC. The tank they are being added to is 3 years old. I cant believe it has already been 3 years...time sure does fly when your...

    Newish Tank

    I added the eel last. He never attacked any of my fish. He won't even attack live shrimps I put in the tank.

    Newish Tank

    I just reread my post and I now understand the confusion. It would appear I have made a spelling error. I meant to write zebra eel and not zebra Lionfish. I am sorry for this mistake ^^. All the fish are being moved but the zebra eel and corals.

    Newish Tank

    It is for this reason he is being moved to the new tank. I don't trust him with anything that he can eat.

    Newish Tank

    The only small fish that go into the tank are brackish raised big fat black mollies. That are raised by a good friend of mine for the soul purpose as feeder fish. Unlike the feeder fish at a store these guys are feed with rich foods and vitamins. He gets a couple on special holidays. He waste no...

    Newish Tank

    I am currently upgrading to a larger tank since my tangs and foxface have outgrown the 150. I am planning on setting up my 150 for reef/small fish. The only current resident that will remain is my zebra lionfish, but he is fish friendly. He wont even eat the peppermint shrimps. I have never...

    Food for Lionfish?

    I feed my lionfish and zebra eel; scallops, tiger shrimp, silver siders, mysis shrimp and squid. I use an IM needle to inject vitamins into the foods. I find the more verity of food the healthier the fish, because they won't just eat one type of food in the wild. Since, you have an eel I would...

    lionfish

    I totally agree with getting a subtank. It is great being able to hid all the equipment in a closet. It is perfect place to put moss.

    lionfish

    Personally I love lionfish. I own a Russell Lionfish and he is very active and eats anything I feed him. However, he was a tank raised lionfish and did not need to be weaned unto frozen food. If you do get a wild lionfish it does take PATIENTS to get them to eat frozen foods. There are lots of...
