    Heater for 2.5 gallon reef?

    I'm in need of a submersible <25 watt heater with a thermostat for a cpr2.5 gallon reef that's high up on a book shelf(i.e. meaning there's nothing going to be attached to this). All the little ones I've seen don't have thermostats. Anyone got suggestions on keeping a 2.5 gallon tank at a...

    most benifical fish

    my sand sifting starfish always keel over in a few months. i'd go with those sand-sifting snails...while they do deplete pods, they turn over sand all day and after 2 years or so, they're all still alive and eat everything ... these ones here...

    Sand Recommendation

    Southdown is supposedly only found on the east coast. if you're looking to save money use 80% dolemite(abuot .50-1.00 a pound) it's a natural buffer and is pure white. throw a fijipink aragalive bag or 2 on top of that and ur good.

    Algae Eaters

    first just about everything, crabs, snails, shrimp, fish may eat/destroy those eggs. the only fish i ever had that actually ate cyano was a Ebili Angel (ive never heard of another dwarf angel that ever did). i work at a fish store too, and you're just not gonna find a fish that will go after...

    weird ? need info fast though

    I remember those in that bubble tank. I know it's pretty expensive to be a reseller of wild animals (some license that needs to be renewed each year), not many pet stores have them (unless they sold sugar gliders, monkeys or hawks, they probably wouldn't), I only knew one in this area by...

    Garlic with Fish Food Question?

    Garlic is just to help a not-eating fish eat(the flavor), and it's supposed to boost immune system. It may help keep up resistance to ick, but as a cure for a current infection, probably not. I've started off a few hard-to-eat butterflies & tangs by crushing a small clove and then I rubbed a...

    weird ? need info fast though

    Technically piranha's aren't totally illegal in washington. They are just illegal to move over our state line, they are illegal to sell and illegal to transfer ownership to someone (although maybe with a wild animal handlers license), but they're not illegal to be here. My store can get them...

    What am I (picture included)

    I got the same stuff, I can see noticable growth every 4-5 days, I now have a few 1"x2" patches growing from almost nothing, it builds little shelves and they each get about the size of dimes. Looks cool to me, doesn't seem to be hurting anything. I have noticed the last few days my 2" emerald...

    Rainsford goby in pairs?

    pairs or groups... I've never seen any problem with them in small unmated groups as well. I think they tend to do better in groups too, like firefish, I had a loner vanish after a week or 2. one of my favorite little fish. check out hector's goby too if you like the rainsford/court jester gobies

    Looking for freshwater online stores

    I'm looking for a couple of Triturus cristatus, the great crested newt. I can't seem to even get them ordered from a LFS(they're not on any order lists). On one hand I hear they're hard or illegal to get, but I also have read how people get them randomly from LFS's across the US for like <$10 a...

    How do you make a pair of maroon clowns?

    get them small, as small as you can once they're about 2+" they may beat each other up too much to pair up

    what's wrong with my baby

    if had the clown 1< month and your temp isnt raising up in the middle of the day. I'd suggest testing your ph at night(like 3 hours after the lights go out), then the next day after 5+ hours of it being on, if your ph isn't fluctuating to lower than 8.2 at night, and it isn't getting higher than...

    Adding Additives while cycling

    I'd use that new Purple Up product, while it's kinda hard to prove if it helps to build coraline algae much over other supplements, purple-up has all supplements for corals (minus just "trace elements" which at cycling isnt need anyway). Having at least some kind of calicum additive will...
