    Got a New Gold Flake Angel.

    I got a new Gold Flake Angel. I was concerned my emperor was going to give it a hard time but it didn't even look at it twice. The PBT on the other hand didn't like the new angel so much and gave him a hard time for about an hour. The new angel ate immediatly after being added to the tank and...

    My Rhinopias Hunting down a damsel and the Aftermath

    He's not into the ghost shrimp either, though I've only tried a couple of times. I'll be collecting live food from the local bays once the weather turns a bit nicer. I've starved him for almost ten days straight and tried to feed him silversides to no avail. I feed him about 2 times a week...

    My Rhinopias Hunting down a damsel and the Aftermath

    I have asked that question myself many times. Though I have no proof, I think they are similar in body chemistry as other freshwater fish. I only feed the Rhino about twice a week. Thankfully I live right on the bay and ocean. So when spring comes I will collect feeders without having to pay...

    My Rhinopias Hunting down a damsel and the Aftermath

    Goldfish and other freshwater fish contain fats that saltwater fish cannot digest. You should never feed saltwater fish freshwater fish, unless your initiating a new fish to eat. The fats build up in the liver and will cause their untimely demise. After seeing necropsies of lionfish kept in...

    My Rhinopias Hunting down a damsel and the Aftermath

    Hello all, thought I'd share some new pics. I feed my Rhinopias live damsels. Generally I keep them in a net and then the rino takes the damsel out of the net. The damsel got away from me, those damsels are quick. So as the Rhino hopped towards him I grabbed my camera to get some pics. I...

    Beautiful fish, but I wouldn't call a blue face. I was torn between a emperor or blue face and went with the emperor. Now if I had a Conspic. or Clarion, that would be rare. Anyone else got some rare stuff. Regards, Tim

    Just as the title states. Let me see what rare fish you currently have in your tanks. Also how long have you had them? What is the common name and scientific name? What type of tank is the fish in? Thanks, Tim

    Anthias Borbonius experiences

    As most anthias are schooling fish I have been told that for the most par they are solitary. Even if they are a schooling fish my wallet has taken a big enough hit with one. Well worth it though. He's the one of the smallest in this tank and he holds his own amongst some pretty tough fish...

    Anthias Borbonius experiences

    The fish has acclimated great and has become quite bold while feeding. He even has began to defend his cave, which is a great sign. Here's some pics. Tough to get good ones. Regards, Tim

    Anthias Borbonius experiences

    Thanks Les for the info. I believe in feeding fish very heavily. I feed my tanks all day long. Maybe 15-20 times. I think this is the biggest problem with most fishkeepers is that underfeed their fish. Unfotunately my feeding schedule requires me to do frequent water changes, but it's well...

    Anthias Borbonius experiences

    I went against golden rule number one and got a fish I no little about except general care of the family. I went to a lfs and there were two Odontanthias borbonius. Looking like they never even came from the deep and smimming around as if they were damsels. I asked one of the workers to feed...
