    Black spots on clown

    Which vitamin soak would you recommend, I've tried to find one but haven't been able to as of yet. I've been reading the packages, and tried to find foods that have some ocean plant material in them and proper oceanic type foods with little to no land stuff. I read your tutorials about...

I soak their food in garlic and selcon on alternating days, I alternate between 4 frozen foods(loaded brine,mysis,formula1,and another one), formula 2 flakes and garlic soaked nori & red seaweed, NewSpectrum pellets. ( I need to try and find some other types...

    Can a Tridacna crocea be too high?

    I had to replace my bulb. the clam is still sitting at the same top position roughly 8 inches from my light. new bulb is a pheonix 14k, changed it 5 days ago, since then the clam has not extended it's mantle as much as previously, should I be conserned? or is it just acclimating to the new...

    I just tried using the UNDERWATER setting on my camera, never occured to me to use it before, but the colours are much more realistic. will post them later ( uploading them right now)

    Black spots on clown

    I was wondering if anyone could comment: The clown that originally had the black spots still has the same 2, they havn't changed in shape/size. But my second clown also has 2 spots ( one on either side) I've never seen them hanging around/in any of my corals and I don't have an anenome. They...

    My first and Only tank ( 30g)..so far ;)

    I have a Canon Powershot A710, So far what I've leared is to stay far back and zoom in, Auto, no flash. but sit as far back from the tank as you can and zoom in otherwise the camera focuses on the glass and not the object your trying to get ( atleast that's my theory)

    My first and Only tank ( 30g)..so far ;)

    THEY LOVE ME AGAIN... or atleast they have for the last 4 days :eek2: The clam is the only one that's still adjusting ( mantle is not extended all the way) but I notices alot of new growth on his shell, very exciting. These are the pictures that made it, I deleted about 30 other ones just to...

    My first and Only tank ( 30g)..so far ;)

    some new pics I put in a pheonix 14k and the difference is amazing. It seemed really blue at first but I've gotten use to it and really like it, the blue is useful for me since I don't run actinics. My previous bulb was more burnt out then I thought, super yellow. Hopefully the corals will like...

    Sexy shrimp VS Randals shrimp

    I like your answering style! alright so more shrimpies it is. YAY My skunk goes on my hand already so i'll just feed him first in a different area. I'll need to do more research before getting an anenome, I'll have to get one that likes sitting on the rocks for it to be within 12" of my...

    Sexy shrimp VS Randals shrimp

    I figured the randals would eat some, but most of mine live in my cheato's. Would they put a dent in the pod population or just snack on them? ( I think my high fins are the only other fish I have that snack on them) I'm worried about the skunk, I've read a few threads, alot of people that...

    Sexy shrimp VS Randals shrimp

    Wondering if I should 1. Get a pair of randals shrimp for my fuge, it's so empty!!! Decidedly watching the cheato's grow is not interesting :cry: . I assume that they will not disturb the pods that are thriving in there. The fuge's is equivalent to a 10g tank ( maybe a bit more) because of the...

    sand bed

    The definition of a DSB seems to change, I've read that it's anywhere between 3-6 inches. I think it has to be over 4 or 5inchs, don't quote me though I"m still really new at this. Mine is roughly 3-4 inches and my pistol shrimp stirs it up completly ( down to the last .5 inch) ever 3-5 days...
