    BioBalls

    Ok, my tank's been up for close to a year- I have heard that most people . favor ditching the bioballs. Now I have cleaned them a couple of times, and I don't have any problems with nitrates- so I guess I'm trying to ask- would I risk anything by removing them- or is it even necessary? I've...

    Yellow Tang ?

    I noticed my yellow tang has a white pinhead size spot(or ball to be more descriptive) on his fin. No where else- None of the other fish have it! I've seen this at the lfs but still do not know what it is- I just knew that I'd buy one without. I checked my water parameters today- everything...

    This was kinda hilarious

    Saw this somewhere else and thought I'd see what everyone does. The question is, What do you tell yourself to justify running to the LFS?? I've got too many to list- but the kids usually catch the blame! lol

    help with coral selection

    As some of you may remember I've been conducting an experiment with a porcupine puffer. Not to jinx anything but everything's going pretty sweet. We've trained this guy to eat on the left side of the tank off of a skewer stick- he only eats his food. His tankmates are a pygmy angel, banggai...
