    WARNING!!!

    If you are thinking about buying some corals or fish from Salty Underground, DON'T!! I ordered 3 sps corals and they were all dead in the morning. I have sps corals in my tank, so it wasn't my tank. I did everything I always do with new coral, sps or not. I emailed them about the corals...

    What is this coral?

    It's a Duncan and likes slow moving water.

    Peppermint shrimp dying

    I bought 2 also, they ate all of the Aptasia in my 125 gal tank. After they consumed all of them 3 days later they were no where to be found. I have some big Hermit crabs and a Emerald crab, maybe the shrimp were lunch.

    Scopas Tang

    I've tried a turkey baster, feeding just Miss Piggy thinking it will get a full belly of brine and Mysis. No chance, beside all of the other fish are 1/8th the size of the Scopas. They don't have a chance with her in the tank. I'm going to buy a 125 soon and she will go in there and I will buy...

    Need help with my anemone

    Hey Is it a Condy? If so it is looking for a place to make it's home. They like to back into a place to live so that can protect themselves from the rear. How long did you acclimate it before you put it in your tank? I was told by several people that you should acclimate them for up to 2 hours...

    Socks

    Hello all!! I have a 80 gal Nuvo reef tank. I have been changing the socks weekly. It popped into my head that maybe I should change them more often. Any ideas??

    Scopas Tang

    I've tried the sheets. I have so many corals in my tank she has to maneuver around them Miss Piggy thinks the sheet moving with the water returns and power heads, I think she thinks it's a anemone. I think if my Coral Beauty would partake miss Piggy would maybe go for it. Thanks Melosu58

    Beware of IM

    Howdy to all I bought a 80 gal Nuvo from Inovative Marine in 2014. Approx. four months later I noticed my sump falling away from the main tank. About two days later I was watching TV and I heard a loud popping noise coming from my tank. Looked all over and couldn't find anything. The next...

    Scopas Tang

    Thanks AL Reefer. Only have a 80 gal tank with rocks piled high. No way could I drain my tank just to catch MS Piggy. Every rock has coral (s) on every rock, and I don't want to risk loosing any of them. Thanks for the advice, if it were a FOWL no problem.

    Scopas Tang

    Thanks Waddi. That's what I figured. I have sooo many rocks with almost no room for any more corals. The only way I would tear down this tank just to get Miss Piggy, is when I get a bigger tank (that she won't go into) would be the only way for me. Thanx again man.....Mark

    Copperband Butterfly

    My CCB is 4 months old and waits at the end of my tank to eat. I swear she wags her tail when she sees me picking up my rock filled with minced clam in the holes. Once in a while I will open a muscle clam And lay it on the bottom and she goes to town. The only down fall of feeding her that way...

    Scopas Tang

    How do you catch a Scopas Tang? I call her Miss Piggy. I have to keep her at bay when I feed the tank. She's like a vacuum cleaner. When the food hits the tank she has vacuumed it all up before the other fish even get a morsel. She needs to go back to the fish store, my other fish are...
