    quarantine suggestions

    So I am trying to decide on my quarantine set up. My problem is space. I only have a small dimension to fit a tank in (12wx10dx18h). I have been considering the ecoxotic eco pico 5 gal as it would fit nicely, and has led lights from a company I trust. I do, however, find it a little...

    Bengaii Cardinal Activity...mating?

    So I've had a pair of BC's for about two months now. They generally hang out in opposing corners of the tank, but don't act aggressively. Two days ago I saw one of the fish chasing the other one, but it seemed to stop after about 30 seconds. Now one of the fish stays in its "normal spot," but...

    What's wrong with this fish?

    So I cleaned my tank today, and noticed a few hours later that one of my fish has a pinkish red bump/scrape on her right next to her fin.

    Cycling and Cyano

    I have many years under my belt for fresh water, but this is my first try at my dream of a reef aquarium. I have a new 36 gal tank that I have been cycling for 4 weeks now. I used distilled water to fill the tank, so I know my problem is not from bad water. I am at 1.023 SG, 0 Amonia, 0...
