Ok, so it's been about a week since I last posted about my 2 urchin's just sitting at the bottom of the tank deflated & lifeless. I thought they could make it back, but now they're most definitely dead. At the same time my Mushroom polyp's became deflated & haven't opened up ever since. Now I...

With a hydrometer...the Urchin's are not right next to each other- they're across the tank.. what do you mean by stray voltage?? and how does that work

They are just laying at the bottom..their spines aren't falling off but they're just looking flat & not expanded. I don't know what it could be...now my 2 mushroom polyps are not opening up like they normally do. My water parameters still appear normal, temperature is 76, salinity is...

Not really losing spines...but both of them are just laying lifeless at the bottom of the tank in the sand....They did this a couple weeks ago, i don't know if it's an unhealthy cycle or what, I was hoping someone had more insight into how Urchin's behave. It's just weird that both Urchin's are...

I have 2 urchin's in my 55 gal, they've been living healthy for about 8 months & two weeks ago I noticed both of them were deflated at the bottom of the sand. I thought they were dead/dying, but next thing I knew they popped right back up and were looking better than ever for the next couple...

Does anybody know where I could buy the replacements? They are compact fluorescents..4 prongs at end. and each bulb(s) extends half the length of the Hood.

So I just bought a 48" JEBO (I know not the best) lighting setup for my 55 gal. It's 220W so it should support coral. But I have a question about the Lights that are in it. I purchased it used..The guy I bought it from replaced only 1 white bulb and 1 night bulb-need advice on which to buy...

I have 2 urchins in my 55 gal they are both hovering on the sand at the bottom of my tank. they usually like to sit in between rocks but one of my URCHIN's is more compressed than usual, meaning it looks flatter and a few spines are falling out. Do they go through a molting type process or is...

Hello, Recently (3-4 weeks ago) I had a tank disaster brought on by a new purchase at a Local Fish Store, specifically a Red Algae Blenny (brought disease). After all my fish died in nearly a week, I began to freak out and start the water changes and remove all dead livestock. My hermits...

Thanks for the responses. I think it was a LFS disease brought in. Go figure!

For 4-5 months my 55 gal. has run flawlessly. Slowly increasing livestock and watching my tank evolve the water conditions were Great. But 2 weeks ago I added a Redfin algae blenny to my tank from the LFS and here I am today, with all my fish dead including the redfin, but for some reason my...

I have a small horseshoe crab and 2 pencil Urchin's in my 55 gal. For the past few days I've notice my horseshoe crab laying upside down in the sand. I thought it had died for some unexplained reason but I went and budged it with my net and it moved out of the way. Is it possible it's molting...

The 2 clowns were the first fish in the tank....Lemonpeel angel was added Last. I'll try re-arranging some rocks and see if that helps at all, but the angel usually swims around the entire tank while the two clowns hangout in the same spot.

I have a Lemonpeel angelfish with 2 clowns and I was told they can co-habitate....However, it seems as if every time i'm around my tank the Angel keeps nipping at one of the clowns...Is this friendly or is the Lemonpeel able to hurt them? 55 gal.

I have a 55 gal. with plenty of Live fiji rock. I recently put 2 Arrow crabs in there assuming they would have enough room to safely coexist. I went to feed the tank today and noticed one crab had just stolen the other arrow crabs leg. Both arrows have their pinchers..one has 6 legs and the...

OK, what does RODI stand for...Reverse Osmosis DI? Is there anything specific I should ask when looking for the RODI water? But my guess is that the average employee won't be too knowledgeable about their different types of water.

I havent heard any clicking..what would it suggest? One is a True Percula Clownfish and the other is an Ocellaris Clownfish.

I will go buy Reverse Osmosis water from local store or Wal-mart. Once I purchase the RO water how do I go about prepping it for my tank. Do I still need to use Prime? I obviously will add the approrpriate amount of Salt but do I still add the Prime.

I added a relatively Large Damsel about 3 weeks ago to my tank which already had 2 smaller damsels and 2 Clownfish... and all of a sudden the Large damsel went missing. There's no way it could have jumped out or gotten sucked up my filter, it's just way to large, and I checked all around the...

I have a 55 gal with relatively new setup about 8-10 weeks now. But all of a sudden there is a lot of Brown algae all over the glass, thermometer, filter, Sand, etc. I have already taken the lights back a few hours a day but am looking to fix this problem which is making my tank just ugly. I...
