So I feel like I am failing as a fish keeper... we only have a 57% success rate so far with our saltwater fish. ( I wish I could keep them the way I keep guppies... I actually have too many of the darn things!) anyway, I just wanted to see how everyone else is doing. We have been patient with...

Well we just haven't had much luck so far with our fish. Tonight I get home and our foxface was stuck on the Koralia... I was pretty sure he was dead so I shut off the flow to get him off of it and HOLY CRAP he is alive... he swam away like it was no big deal... but basically his left fin is...

well, in blatant disregard to everyone else's experiences with incredible jumping diamond gobies... we just had to get one. of course... he jumped out. I went in to check on him (in our qt tank) and our cat just started looking at me and making these crazy sounds... she was standing right...

So we got this mushroom at our lfs, (only $5) it was attached to a tiny piece of rock which we superglued onto our own rocks. The next morning it was gone, so I counted it as a loss. Well last night while exploring the tank, I found it! It had attached itself to the backside of a rock and we...

What kind of experience have you had with foxfaces eating hair algae? Many sites proclaim that they will eat it happily but I wanted to hear some real life opinions. Thanks!!

does anyone in Ohio have any chaeto they want to get rid of? We just need a little for our sump. I know we can get it on ebay but I just wanted to see if anyone had some extra. Thanks! April

I am setting up a 55 gallon freshwater that is only going to hold guppies. I will only be using a few hardy plants, so quality of light is not a major issue. I was wondering what are my options for cheap lights for a standard rectangular 55 gallon. Cheap strip lights are fine. But even the...

while we wait for our tank to cycle, we are making our long term plans for livestock. I am really intrigued by urchins and would love to have one. At what point in the timeline would you add one? I am guessing after you have a good cleanup crew established, but would you add it before or...

We have a sump/refugium setup for our 75 gal and we haven't decided on the specifics yet. I'm curious, what do you have in your refugium, as far as amount of sand/mud, LR, type of macro, or critters? Thanks for sharing!

I'm sorry if a similar thread exists elsewhere already... the search function isn't working right now. we have an uninhabited tank set up that has sand and water in it now, and we are looking at our options for live rock. We will probably be purchasing it locally and picking it up ourselves...

Hi everyone. I finally decided to stop lurking and make an account. My husband is Pheeshes, and we're setting up a 75 gal FOWLR for now, with hopes of switching over to reef in the future. He has a nice thread going already with pics in the tank showcase. Thanks for all of the great info...
