    FRIEND or FOE What is your vote???

    bristle worms....depends..... when I see big ones....I remove. But I figure the little ones (as long as I don't see them) are members of the clean up crew...they can eat garbage found in the nooks & cranies...lol

    What to do for Ich

    I have a yellow, hippo & sailfin tang....and whenever they get stressed, you can guarantee a few ick spots show up. I use Herbtana by Microbe-Lift. I'd had great success with it. They also make Artemiss for bacterial issues. I really like both products....it's a more homeopathic type of...

    Poll: How Many plugs/outlets do you use?

    Good grief I knew I had several, but even I was surprised. The big tank has this cool 4ft long Snap-On Power strip I bought at Costco last summer....it has 12, plus I have another sm. powerstrip that currently has 3 plugs full. The small tank is plugged into a couple of smaller powerstrips...

    Help ID this

    My friend has some stuff growing in her tank. It's not slime algae....she's trying to decide if it's algae or bacterial. It's growing on rocks, and on the antanae/feelers of one of her crabs. Not sure how to treat it since she doesn't know what it is.

    lighting question

    I decided to update my current lights (48in Aquatic Life HO's). I also have an older unit that is the compact florescents (came with tank & didn't like). Both units are on tank....which is why I've finally had it and upgrading. It'll be nice not to have to move a lighting fixture everytime I...

    Painting back of tank

    My friend is tired of the overflow box and is planning on drilling her tank. I've heard people talk about painting the back of their tanks so you don't see all the plumbing....what kind of paint is safe to use? Is it a standard glass paint or something else?

    Green brittle star 1 Sailfin tang 0

    I fed a fish eating crab to my sons red eared sliders (aquatic turtle). I took great joy in watching them munch him up....he ate a couple of star fish and was probably responsible for the disapearance of 2 other fish. Do you know anyone nearbye that has turtles? I figured since it ate my...
