    Sooo my female clown is getting very wiggle-y

    so normally my female clown just beats up my male night and day, 24/7. The first month or 2 of being beat up, he would lay on his side and vibrate, thus submitting. Fast forward until now, he’s been getting beat up the past year and a half, and he fights back a bit now, rarely submits. Just now...

    [Grow-out Contest]: Greyhound Zoa

    So I bought this colony from diablo corals ~ a couple of months ago, I’m pretty sure it is a no-name zoa so I named it Greyhound so it can have a common name. If someone knows the common name, we can change it. This coral might be a paly, when fragging it I noticed it had a small shell piece...

    Equipment for a 55g long

    Anyone want to do a grow out contest?

    So I was just about to frag my zoas, and then I thought, “ hey, I have about 30 heads, and the stalks are about an inch long, so it would be easy to frag single heads!” If you guys want to do a grow out contest, just let me. I was thinking if no one know the name to these, we should give them a...

    What are your experiences with fire fish

    So I've been doing some research on these guys, and Ive read a lot of conflicting information on these guys. I've read that their sex is determined at hatch, but I've also read they are sequential hermaphrodites. I've heard they do great in groups forever, but then I've also heard they do great...

    Questions about/piecing together my 160g

    So I've been cleaning the glass on my 160g, getting it ready for when I set it up. Seeing as I only have the tank, there's still a ton I need. @Flagg37 I was wondering if you could help me design a stand, I have a ton of 2x4s. Also, if someone has a return pump, sump, or skimmer that they would...

    Breeding marine fish questions

    So I've been researching breeding fish for a while. @Kim Pattison threads have been very helpful. It sounds like it can be a full time job lol. This is definitely something I would like to get into in the future. I was thinking I could build my own tanks if I can find glass/acrylic for cheap...

    I finally get to join the big tank club!

    So I just pulled the trigger on buying a used oceanson 160g flat back hex. Dimensions are roughly 60"x21.5"x31.5". It's going to be a b**** to reach the bottom of the tank, but overall I am very happy with. So stoked to get it up and running. Looks like this

    Need some help with a 10g AIO

    Hey guys, so I am thinking about modifying my standard 10g tank into an AIO tank that will be used for dwarf seahorses. The direction I want to take this tank is higher water volume for stability, but a smaller display in order to concentrate live food for feedings. I'm thinking roughly 6...

    so I bought some pukani off of BRS a while ago, I soaked it in 1 part bleach 15 parts water for 3 weeks, left them in the sun for a few days, and now they've been dry for 3 or so months. Now my question is, how long do they have to soak in water and prime to dechlorinate

    Jawbreakers grow soooooo slow

    I originally bought my jawbreaker shroom from neptunes around ~9 or so months ago, slightly bigger than half dime size. Now it's about 3/4 nickel size, maybe slightly bigger, and I see 2 red specks. Yay! Side note, anyone know the best way to get bleached shrooms to color back up? Bought some...

    Feeding brittle stars to LPS

    Is there anything wrong with this nutritionally wise? These guys are literally every where, so I am trying to find new uses for them. My fish won't eat them, but my LPS love them, always elicits a great feeding response. It was pretty cool noting the stinging power of the corals. Duncan's have...
