The 55 was setup as a holding/cycling tank for the live rock. It was actually split between a 55 and a 20L, with a total of about 250lbs of rock. The 55 held a little over 200 lbs, but it was basically packed to the brim. there was very little swimming room left and even less substrate surface...

I agree that in most cases, morays (even without aggression) can be very dangerous. The temperament of a Zebra eel does allow a careful person to feed it without an accidental bite. The real issue however, is the inability of a Zebra to do any damage, even if a bite occurs. Its teeth are totally...

I'll look into getting a T-5 setup. My daughter is 8, and just as enthused about animals as I am. She has a pair or leopard geckos and a breeding pair of Veiled chameleons, I do very little of the work to take care of either, it's really cool to watch. She insists on naming every living thing...

I have a 4 bulb T-8 fluorescent system that was carried over from the FOWLER setup as Bifferwine suggested may be the case. How long will an anemone last under insufficient light? MH lighting is out of the question. If I need to, I will put direct LED light on it. Yes AltoHombre, Zebra...

I guess I forgot to mention that my 'pod pop. dropped off almost as dramatically in the sump as well.

My first thought was that it had something to do with the fish eating them, but the only fish that eats them is the hawkfish, the clownfish are large and ignore anything smaller than full grown brine shrimp. Could the 2-1/2"hawkfish really have had that much impact on the pop. this quickly? I...

I have found a lot of conflicting information about how much light anemones actually need. Some people say they need TONS of light, others say then need to be fed often and fed a varied diet. My system has medium light(fluorescent), and the clown fish take good care of it, making sure to feed it...

So here's my situation... I got about 200 lbs of live rock from someone breaking down a tank that had been set up for about 2 years. He had moved it to his garage and the temp was about 89 degrees for 2-3 weeks. some soft corals lived through it along with a shrimpgoby. I set up a 55gl tank for...

Hi! I just got out of the military and I'm getting back into some of my old interests. I'm currently restocking my house with reptiles and amphibians, and starting to get interested in marine life. I set up a 55 gallon FOWLR with 200+ lbs of rock, a few damsels and a Shrimpgoby that came with...
