Really quick what might be causing some of the hermit crabs to stay in there shell almost as if they are hiding.

I purchased eight.four and my pH has risen drastically and is now at what seems to be a steady level of 8.4 : ). Been this way for the past few hours going to check up on it before lights out.

Everything is stable this morning except the pH which is even lower at the start of today which is 7.4 I'm gonna test it again in about an hour before I head to the store to pick up some products.

and also the ammonia has risen to about .40 which has me really nervous

This was before I added all the shells and snails and hermits

those are the two clown fish and the aquarium is about to be posted sorry about the size : (

So this might be paranoia but one of the hermit crabs from the old aquarium is out of its shell and I have a ton of shells that I have basically thrown in its face but it does not seem to want them. Should I be worried about more deaths. Nitrate= 0 pH= around 8.0-8.2 Nitrite=0 and same with...

So I looked at all those fish and I'm very excited I really like the colors on the the royal gramma and really quick I was about to post pictures in the gallery but it says invalid file type is there a certain type of format the pictures have to be in and there high quality so like 5.6 mb pictures

Well, I'm nervous because they acted the same way in there old aquarium which was beat to s*** so I am worried that they are almost terrified of people and just in case I forgot to mention thank you all very much for helping me out, and my last request is if you guys could tell me some other...

Quick update fish are in aquarium along with all live rock and snails and crabs. Last test pH was up to 8 nitrates still at 0 and ammonia is 0 as well and same with nitrites. Pictures will be up as soon as water clears up a little and is it common for the clown fish to not come out and I am a...

Good news just purchased about 12 turbo snails and 12 hermit crabs all are doing well and water test are doing good as well. Planning on adding the last pieces of live rock and then the two fish! Will keep you update and expect pictures soons

well right now its just live rock so i don't really have a set light schedule because I'm trying to kill off the little bit of algae I missed. I do have the Current T5 lighting as well as a fixture that has a daylight 12,000 and a true actinic i would assume they are both decent fixtures and...

Ok so I placed the live rock in only to see the ph decrease, but a few hermits transferred over and seem to be doing just fine waters still stirred from when I added the live rock and moved it around to my likings. I wanna say the pH is at 7.8 and I'm going to the store to invest in pH increase...
