    Butterfly Question

    Thanks Reedman and herefishyfishy for your replies. I did a little research and decided to go with the double saddleback. And I don't really think my motive for buying a fish will really matter to the fish as long as I provide it with the proper surrounding, care, food, husbandry etc.;)

    Butterfly Question

    Well My tank seems to have become a mojano and aipasia farm and I'm getting REALLY sick of it so I'm thinking of going the butterfly route. Is there any particular species of butterflies that will be likely to eat both and once it has (hopefully) eaten all the nuisance anemones will it eat...

    ClownFish Developement step by step

    Don't get discouraged. Remember that in nature only the tiniest fraction of eggs actually have a life as a clownfish. Eventually you'll figure out how to improve your yield but until then keep up the good work

    New 45 gallon rimless

    Congrats on the tank. It looks like you're doing a fine job. I'm envious of your ATO though. That's the one I've been wanting

    Lighting question

    I have beem using a 48" system very similar to that on my 72g for about 6 months. So far the only problem has been one of the four ballasts for the actinics burnt out. cost me 16.95 and 10 mins to replace. other than that the only complaint that I have is that the light from the halides seems to...

    Newbie intro / anybody here use natural seawater

    I think you're spot on increasing the salinity like that. I'd really recommend getting a refractometer for salinity readings though. swing needle hydrometers are IME very inacurate.

    Newbie intro / anybody here use natural seawater

    Honest opinion on this light fixture...

    I have a similar fixture I got off ebay.I am happy with it so far. The only issue I've had was a faulty ballast for the PC actinics. I'd definately go for one that has PC or t5 actinics as well as the mh.

    Aqua Bella?

    Since you mention seahorses, This would actually seem like a cool species specific tank for say seahorses and pipefish. Am I totally off on this? I'm sure it woud need to be modded a little but seems like ti would work

    Aqua Bella?

    Wow, alot of promises. I call BS on the patented enzyme for above stated reason. I think the Aquariums look cool though and I'm sure certain fish (that don't need alot of swiming room) would be ok in there. Not exactly the place to keep a collection of tangs :lol
