    Peppermint shrimp molesting corals

    Thanks again. Yeah probably bristle and they seem to be under control so far. Stupid clowns still aren't hosting the bubble tip nem....I added two damsels (blue and black one) and everyone seems to be getting along just fine. Got my skimmer up and running and it looks like a happy, healthy...

    Peppermint shrimp molesting corals

    Thank you guys, I had a suspicion. Also....I noticed a worm with many feet that was flat....and had a grey stripe down the middle of its back. The rest of it was white. I couldn't get a picture....but it was out in the daytime. From my description.....any guesses if good worm?

    Peppermint shrimp molesting corals

    It's looking like my peppermint shrimp is an asshole. I bought a brand new dendrophyllia last week. Put it in the upstairs tank....3gal pico. Not the best idea because nitrates up to 80ppm. So today I moved him down to the main tank which is mature and established. I feed the dendro via...

    What's this red stuff and why is it getting dangerously close to my Zoas?

    I'm good. Everything pulled through and we successfully completed the final solution for the red slime in my tank. Green hair algae still there....but whatever.

    I should also mention that I'm using it on a JBJ 24ga nano tank....and prior to dosing I turned the power head way up, toward the top of the tank (surface disturbance) so it's really creating some oxygen bubbles in the tank.

    so apparently you need to use an airstone when using chemi-clean. I did not. I added it at 6pm on Sunday. Did I screw up or should I do an immediate water change Monday morning?

    New coral (dendrophyllia) care and selling corals?

    Thanks....yeah I'm going to move the dendro to an overhang so he's partially in the shade. I fed him/her/it today.....it was kinda cool. Put some frozen mysis in a turkey baster and squirted him 2 of them. He closed up and ate it.

    New coral (dendrophyllia) care and selling corals?

    But seriously.....is a 16watt light too much for the dencrophyllia? Or any care tips? A few thousand bucks to me is chump change and about what I spent on my tank last year.

    New coral (dendrophyllia) care and selling corals?

    Yeah alcohol isn't my drug of choice. I honestly can't stand the ****. So instead of a saloon, I will open up an opium den (smoking only). Much better to get high than drunk. And I could probably run whores like there's no tomorrow.....but who wants to be around a bunch of women on their...

    What's this red stuff and why is it getting dangerously close to my Zoas?

    So I was at my local fish store....it's the one off of Fairview and.....Warner? in Orange County Ca. They are some cool people there and they got a $10 back everytime you spend $100. Anyways so I stopped by and in passing conversation I complained about the red slime. The 16 year old kid...

    New coral (dendrophyllia) care and selling corals?

    I just picked up a dendrophyllia today. Then I had a bright idea: Instead of putting it in my display tank....how about I put it in the 3 gallon pico tank that I got. This is going to be a "coral only" tank. So I took some water (~2gallons) from my display tank, 2 piece of live rock and some...

    What's this red stuff and why is it getting dangerously close to my Zoas?

    I just put on some gloves and pulled out as much as I could by hand. The red stuff is inter-twined with the green hair algae. I never realized how much work a 24ga nano is.....and how expensive.

    What's this red stuff and why is it getting dangerously close to my Zoas?

    I had to don some gloves to take a zoa that the stupid blenny knocked off a rock.....and I just pulled out a **** ton of the slime with my hands. That and the hair algae.
