Sorry we haven't posted pictures yet. My camera cord is at my parents house. =P We're wanting to get a new coral today. We have red mushroom coral and a cup coral. It has the red sea max t5 lights and we have a coral banded shrimp. What type of coral are easy, hardy, look nice and will work...

i really like that tank

That's okay, we just wanna get rid of the aiptasia. We bought some joe's juice but we can't reach all of the spots where the aiptasia is growing. UPDATE! We got our gorilla crab out! And wow is the 10 year old boy who got him ever excited. =)

Can we put a peppermint shrimp in our tank with our coral banded shrimp?

lol yeah it kinda is. We've decided to give it to my boyfriend's 10 year old brother. We'll just put him in a 5 gallon tank. What do those guys eat (aside from our shrimp) to stay alive? He's gonna be a cool pet for a 10 year old boy. Once a day!!!! The guy said he fed it once a week. oh man...

How often should we feed our 3 striped damsel? The guy we bought everything from said he never fed his corals because they got all their food from the light. Is this true? okay we're getting rid of the crab. He tried to eat our shrimp last night. My boyfriend chased it back with a tooth brush.

Also, one more question, sorry, how often can we do water changes? Is it bad to do it too much? Our sand has a bunch of crap on top and we missed a lot when we did our water change this morning. Can we do another water change to try and get rid of the rest of the brown stuff?

So we have the red sea max 130 and the guy we bought it from had a lot of tiny pieces of live rock that we don't really want to display. Can we put it in the back of the system?

our gorilla crab just hides all day in a cave. My boyfriend said he's seen him out once at night. He hasn't bothered the coral or anything.

We have the lights on and although the tank needs some work still, I think it looks great! We have a 9 inch black urchin (who hurts!), a big fuzzy gorilla crab (he's so cool!), a 3 striped damsel (who is apparently really old - he's been through 5 different tanks already apparently), a shrimp, a...

thanks and we will! we're a little concerned. Right now it's all murky cuz of the sand so it's hard to see but we noticed our 3 striped damsel shudder. It's happened three times so far :(

ah sorry. we bought an already established tank with live rock, a damsel, an urchin and a coral. we've just put everything thing but aren't sure if we can turn the lights on now

We just brought home a new fish tank and are wondering if we can turn the lights on. Do we have to wait a certain period of time first?

i think we'll keep him for a few weeks and then sell him to the fish store (do most fish stores buy fish from you?) in order to get two clown fish.

lol did not get your joke well he's coming free with our tank so i guess we'll probably try to sell him to a fish store or something.
