    KILLER HERMIT CRABS ON BOTTOM FEEDERS!?!?!

    I'm really starting to get frustrated. I was having some minor brown algae issues so I wanted to get something to keep my tank nice and clean.

    Adding New Fish To Tank Upgrade And Other Questions

    I'm SOOOO happy with my tank upgrade. After two months of searching, I found the perfect 75g tank on Craigslist. I went to the store and tallied it up, I walked away with more than $800 of stuff for only $175. Everything was less than a year old, too. I also purchased a HOB protein skimmer...

    OH CRAP! New anemone stuck in filter.

    I've had a very sturdy tank for the past eight months so I purchased my first anemone yesterday for my pair of clown fish. I drip acclimated him on top of a rock in the bucket and then placed him into the tank and went to bed. This morning when I work up, he's STUCK TO THE FILTER! I immediately...

    Two Spot Goby Won't Eat

    I bought at two spot goby from the LFS last week and this guy isn't eating, at least from what I can see. The tank is very peaceful so I don't think it's stress related. I've tried flake food, pellet food, frozen cubes and even live brine shrimp the past two days and I don't see him eating...

    Chad OchoCinco's INSANE Aquarium

    Chad Ochocinco posted a video on his Instagram today talking about his lazy lion fish. Then... he showed the rest of his aquarium. I instantly started drooling at this thing. You could swim in it! Whenever I get to the point of a custom tank build, I'm putting a TV in it! Check it out...

    Hello everyone, I hope you're all doing well. I just returned home from my sisters wedding in Jamaica and thankfully my tank was still in tact. While I was there, I went snorkeling a few times and wish I could have brought some of these fish home with me, even though it's practically...

    Bristleworm or fireworm?

    My wife sent me these pictures of a "centipede" she thought I added to my tank. My wife also hates centipedes with a passion. :ROFLMAO: Anyways, I read that bristle worms are beneficial to the tank, whereas fireworms aren't. I didn't see it with my own eyes, I just have to go off of these...

    Huge Tank Breaks At Disney

    Check out this video! I was showing my grandmother my tank and she mentioned she saw this on the news. Apparently a restaurant in Disney called T-Rex had a problem with a gorgeous tank. Luckily, all the fish were saved, but this is cringeworthy for any aquarium hobbyist. Click here to...

    Purchasing RO/DI water from the LFS and salinity

    I just got my refractometer in the mail today ($28 on eBay) and measured my salinity after doing my 15% weekly water change. I only have a 20G (long) tank and only put in water I buy from the store. Typically I keep 10G of RO/DI fresh water and 10G of RO/DI salt on hand for my changes. The water...

    Horseshoe crab competing with Goby for food?

    I just purchased a Diamond Watchman Goby because I wanted to keep my tank as clean as possible. The first invert I purchases was a small horseshoe crab and I love him. He's certainly let my favorite creature in the tank. My question is, in a smaller tank (20G long) will these guys compete over...

    Diamond Watchman Goby: Did I make a mistake?

    I just finished my cycle in a 20G long a few weeks ago and have a clown and coral beauty. Everything is going great in the tank but my sand was a little dirty and I loved watching the Diamond Watchman Goby in the store. My levels were fine before I left, so I went ahead and purchased it. Now...
