    Sailfin vs. Powder blue

    +1 Erin, I have a Flame Fin Tomini and it is a great fish, very hardy.

    Sailfin vs. Powder blue

    YES, you can. Did that make you feel better? The Sailfin will probably be easier as they are fairly hardy, I have heard the powder blue are less hardy but I totally understand wanting one, I think they are gorgeous. Now just between you and me, here's my take on the tang thing and the size of...

    Good luck Alex I can't imagine that not giving enough distraction to shake up their world! Neat video and cool sound effects. Oh no, I just realized I may have too many tangs, I love'm.

    Which Goby?

    I thank everyone for contributing to this post and I hope others will give up some comments about their gobies :) I am still not for sure which one or pair I'll be getting but I enjoy hearing about your experiences and I'm sure others do as well. Again thanks for posting.

    Which Goby?

    Thanks Badfish I'm glad you are having success with the yellow head sleeper. Question about him, does he sift and stay low or rise up in the water column to drop the sand? That is something else I am trying to find out about the different sifters, thanks.

    Which Goby?

    I understand and agree to what you're saying about being knowledgeable about your fish, that's why I'm doing this research. I have read in various posts and on some online fish sites about certain species may starve in tanks even while taking prepared food. That's all, just asking who has had...

    Thanks to all for sharing about your experiences this is the kind of feedback that all who are interested can benifit from. I would like for others who keep Gobies to share their successes and failures. I had a orange spot one time but unfortunately he went carpet surfing, now I have a screen...

    Which Goby?

    Come on there's lots of gobies other than diamonds and yellow heads, I have been told that some just pick up sand sift it and drop it without swimming up and dropping out to drift back down all over. Does anyone have experience with that kind, I'd had to think I have to rely on the LFS for the...

    Which Goby?

    I had a Yellow Headed Goby once that I did not like because he would take the sand up and release in the water column resulting in everything in the tank getting covered with sand. I like the little creatures and would like to have one, is there one of the many type who will clean the sand and...

    Peppermint shrimp babies?

    Yeah babies not very likley from my experience they will be fish food. I had one one time very heavy with eggs that I guess hatched and were still clinging underneath the tail of mom. One day she jets to the surface like a rocket releasing the little ones, she did that 2-3 times but I never saw...

    They're here, take two.

    I love the Lemon Peel, beautiful fish! I'm sure the Flame is too he should be coming out by now, I hope you have good luck with these two and they don't get hungry as they will find coral good I think the thinh with these is just don't let them get that hungry. Oh and you're doing it right with...

    My Tampa Bay Saltwater Package

    I'm glad for your success. Now I'm jealous, seriously it must have something to do with a. water parameters b. useable food. It always does :D. No doubt good husbandry on your part and bad on mine.
