Hey guys,
I have recently aquired (about 3 months ago) a Blue Throat Trigger about 9 inches long in excellent health. I have noticed that his topline right above his eyes and back to the dorsal have been shrinking in size somewhat. Going from a nice full convex curvature to much less than a...
I've been dosing my 215g with kalk water for about 18 months now and have had great success at keeping the calcium and PH in optimum ranges. However, recently my PH rose to undesirable levels as I've since found out is common with limewater tanks. The PH was ranging in the 8.5x area and has...
I hit about 40 ap's with the Aptasia X formula today and if early estimates
are accurate.... I'm gonna buy stock in it! The ap's don't pull away and they take it right in.
We'll see if they come back but it doesn't look possible at this point. Some of them even released and were rolling...
Just saw a little crab on one of my acro' corals. No bigger than an eraser head on a pencil. Is this little guy ok or do I need to get him out of there?
Thanks,
Well, it took me a year and a half in this hobby but I finally screwed up big time. I have been so careful to keep ich out of my tank by hypo treatment with nearly every fish I've added since I'm keeping tangs.
I picked up a very healthy looking CBB last week and knowing how delicate they are...
One of my biggest pains since getting into this hobby is wondering what the heck my tank temperature is! I'm like the man with two watches who never knows what time it is. :D
So I never really trusted the inexpensive thermometers and when I got an ACIII awhile back I knew that finally I had...
After much trial and error with different methods of unsuccessfully trying to catch my killer crab, I went swimming today (nearly) with my fish and gave it the "hands on" approach!
I've been so frustrated with this crab who until recently was a good citizen except for moving stuff around a bit...
This just showed up today. He seems to prefer not to use the fin. There is also a small bit on the opposite fin.
Thoughts and ideas appreciated.
Thanks
Well my suspicions have been confirmed. The rogue crab that I got as a hitchhiker when I brought home some rock last year is a killer. He is extremely reclusive and I rarely see him. I've also tried to catch him numerous times.
A couple of weeks ago my Randal's Goby disappeared. My other one...
So I've added macro to my sump about three months ago (at least) and haven't really seen any growth to speak of. The cheato' is looking healthy and green all around. It's just not large enough yet to 'help' clean up the excess I suppose. I've heard that once established, a macro fuge' will...
My first SRBTA has split! I was wondering if it could get any bigger before doing so. It was regularly 12 inches or more across. Now I have two that are 8" and took no time to start growing again. Thought I would sell one but wifey says "NO" I like 'em. So I guess I'll have to wait for the...
My actinic on one side had begun strobing (flashing) so I replaced the bulb. It's been good for a couple of weeks and just started strobing again. Is this a common failure? Any thoughts here?
Thanks,
Some zoos have been closed up for a couple of weeks. Others are doing great. One of my SPS began bleaching from the bottom up so I fragged off all I could that was still colored to try and save some of it. Monti cap looks like it has a whitish film on it and is unhealthy. Leathers are...
