My mom is acclimating this guy as we speak. Or girl I should say. He's an Ora special. I'm hoping he's gold stripe. But we'll see. The list price was $120 at the store but I paid $40 for him. Can't wait until I get home. Pics soon.

So, long story short, I have had a link spot watchman goby tha I've had for sometime now. He's lived pretty much alone in the tank forever. Outside of a short stint with an algae blenny, which I think he killed, and a 3 month stint with a clown fish before he got sucked in to a water pump. There...

Is this a common thing for LFS to have aiptasia in their tanks? And do people keep Aiptasia? I've seen what it can do to a person and I would never want anything like that near me or my fish. But anyways, I walked into a local LFS today and saw this: Needless to say, I walked out...

I had a small HOB refugium that I want to use to house Pods. I know Pods need really dirty water, but what else do I put in the water? some small rocks? I've been putting old Nitrated water in this for a little while now and I think I can sustain a pod population now. But any help would be...

Quick timeline. 3 days ago I fed my anemone 1/4 cube of mysis. 2 days ago he disappeared to the back of the rock somewhere that I couldn't see anything. Yesterday he was really spread out on 2 rocks. By really spread out I mean like really stretching his foot. About half on each...

I ordered a single mushroom coral. It came in today, and looked kind of like a capsule or something. I wasn't sure how to get it, so I put it in a hole in a very pourous rock. Will it take in that situation? I'm new to corals and heard that zoas, mushrooms and star polyps were the easiest to...

Got this guy from SWF today. It came with a CUC, a mushroom coral, and a six line wrasse (He didn't make it :( ) But anyways, I'm new to anemones, and want to make sure everything is ok. I honestly thought it was dead when I looked in the bag. It was pretty much flat, and looked like it had...

I currently have an ocellaris clown and a pink spotted watchman goby. I ordered a small bubble tip anemone, a six line wrasse, a mushroom coral, and a small CUC with some snails, hermits, an emerald crab and a peppermint shrimp. Would this be too much to add to the bioload at once? This should...

So, I got an ocellaris clown about a week and a half ago. I was originally going to get a BTA, but the store didn't have any. Then I saw this little beat up Sebae. I felt bad, because it had obviously been mistreated at the store. At the price, I figured I would take the shot and see if I could...

I think my algae blenny got pinched between 2 rocks and ripped part of his gill off last night. He was fine last night when I went to sleep and then came home for lunch today. He was pinched pretty firmly between 2 rocks and part of his gill was destroyed. Could he have gotten stuck between the...

I recently started a 55 Gallon Corner Build. I will be updating as time goes on. Anyways, 55 Gallon Corner Tank, 90lb Live Rock. Got it local, the rock was already cured, so all I had to do was get it in to my water as soon as possible. The plan from here is to get a fox face rabbit fish, a...

As some of you know, I inherited these 2 fish. My tank is too small for the angel. It is about 3 inches long now but will be about a foot when full grown. He's eating algae flakes and nipping algae off of rocks right now. - $30 The goby is supposedly full grown. About 4 inches. I think it's a...

I am inheriting 80-90lbs of live rock with this 55 gallon tank that I am picking up tomorrow. Should I keep it and reuse it, or sell it? The thing that might worry me is that I don't know where it came from, and would rather sell it and start from scratch with some dry rock that I know where it...

Ive been lurking around debating of I should get a tank or not for a few years now. A good deal popped on Craigslist and I jumped on it. So now I the owner of a 54 gallon corner tank. I want to start as a fowlr tank and then move to corals and what not later on. I am planning on having a zebra...
