Cycling without damsels OR live rock? by
Tom E.
Is this possible? It would seem all I would need is
something biological to drop in the tank. Some people
here have managed to turn me off of using damsels to
cycle, and live rock for a 29 gallon tank would cost
150 dollars. Too damn much for a couple of small
boulders. By the way, I found what...

My Tang Choked! by
Paule
I think... After feeding him thawed out frozen food (like we do every
other day), he fell to the bottom of the tank an laid on his side. I
lifted him with the net and he spit out a bunch of food and fell back
to the bottom of the tank. I lifted him again and he started swimming
normally.
He...

newbie - Is RO water really necessary? by
Veggie
I'm a newbie setting up a 55 gal fish only aquarium. I have been
planning to do a freshwater setup, but realized lately that the most
colorful and interesting fish IMO are sal****er. So, I've been looking
at sal****er instead. Still fish only, and flake eating fish only if
possible. Everything...

Feeding Mural Goby by
Maddie
I recently bought a mural goby and I'm concerned because I don't see him
eating.
He did sift a lot of sand when I first got him but now (after about 4 weeks)
he's not sifting much.
Is it possible that he's eaten everything out of the sandbed? I have a
30-gallon tank. Also, he seems to get...

Removing/cleaning glass haze near water line? by
[email protected]
I picked up a tank previously used for sal****er. What i have noticed
in the top 1" below the top frame, is that the glass is hazy. It's
really smooth inside, so it doesn't appear to have hard water crusting.
Does anyone know how to remove this?? I would like to get back into
new shape. I'm...

Downgrade to FO Tank by
Maddie
Hi,
I'm in the process of downgrading to a fish only tank from a reef tank for
various reasons. My questions:
1 - Can I keep a cleaner shrimp in a FO tank given that I won't be using RO
water and my water quality may not be quite as high as it was in my reef
tank?
2 - What are suitable...

Foxface Rabbitfish is unhappy! by
Shassmom3
I purchased a Foxface Rabbitfish a few months ago...He was very bright yellow and black. Now his color is very dull and he will even change to brown at times. I make sure that he has plenty of supplemental seaweed between feedings. Does anyone know what I can do to make him happy?

agressive damsels by

I added a couple of clown fish to my 55 gal tank. The tank only had three
damsels and a clean up crew. The damsels were so aggressive with my new
clowns that I took them out and put them in the 10 gal quarantine tank. I
figure that after some time the clowns will get territorial and fight...
