Thanks Navarre. :D

Will the fish eat them all? Or will they keep safe in the rock and keep reproducing?Should I do anything to help them?

I was looking really close with a flashlight at the dugouts under & between the live rock when I noticed these little things... white & the size of sand jumping, swimming, scurrying across the sand! There was a small piece of shrimp that had drifted down there (that's what I was originally...

No his tail isnt always curled up. We've only had him for a day now. I haven't noticed if there is a certain time or a pattern for when he curls up. He stays near the filter tube quite a bit. The place he stays the most after that is in the big gap b/w the rocks with the tang. We only have...

It's soooo frustrating! My husband is hard headed! He says he's done with me chatting in these forums, or at least me telling him what advice I've found! He takes what Carlos and the other fish guy say for truth and gets ill when I tell him otherwise! He asks me for information on a certain...

he has a white belly, bright green on top, brownish-grey on the sides. The spots on the side are more circular. The ones on top are circular to box-like circles. They are not long, wavy spots. With his tail uncurled he is probably 1 1/2" - 2". I have a couple pics but they arent that clear, and...

Thanks for the info Navarre. I will definitely urge Jon to take it back (his tank, I just do the research!) Do you know if the anemone could be the reason the hifin cardinal up and died during the night? We just got two new fish yesterday, a naso tang and a 1" brackish water puffer....I'm...

We got a Naso Tang yesterday and Carlos the pet store guy sold us a $6 brackish water puffer that was, I guess you could say converted to saltwater. It's 1" and Carlos said it will get up to 3". From the pictures I've seen online, I think it must be a Green Spotted Puffer. Carlos told us it...

We were told by the pet shop guy (Carlos) that this anemone would be good for us since we are salt beginners. It was labeled "Sebae Anemone" but he said it wasn't really, it just looked like one and was an African something rather. We've had damsels & hermits in the tank for about 7weeks and...

Thanks so much for the advice! That's exactly what I needed to know. And the cerith snail (alternative to the blenny) is great info! He was happy to hear it.

Are my two tiny hermits and snail enough of a "clean up crew"?? I thought one of those sand sifter blennies might help, but I hear they make big holes everywhere. I dont think my husband would like it making sand dunes! It's his tank so he gets the final say so on what goes in it.

thanks for that pic.....definitely not that! Wish I had a digital camera so I could show ya'll!

I'm in Columbus,Ga Well its a little darker than the sand. Maybe a brownish color with just a hint of green. :P I guess its not really "hairy". Just lil things sticking up here and there so I thought of lil hairs.....but no its not furry or anything! I swear it all just popped up over...

So we've had our 55 gal tank running for about 6 weeks. There are 3 damsels, 2 lil' hermits, a tiny star, 1 snail, and a banded coral shrimp. Oh and there's a few live rock...well 2 "base rock" and 1 live rock if that matters. After having the shrimp for a week & a half it molted and yesterday...

Thanks ya'll :D Our tank is a 55 gal & we're gunna keep fish and a few crustaceans (my favorite part of the tank!) for now. We've only had the tank up as saltwater for 3-4 weeks, and so far all is well (minus 3 of the damsels killing one of its own!). I'm sure Jon will want to make it a...

oh okay thanks, i'm new to this forum thing! sorry! :P

Thanks a bunch. It makes since whatcha said, so I'll look into it! :D

We are beginners and just got some live rock today and found a teeny-tiny pinkish-red starfish on it. It's probably smaller than a pencil eraser head. We have 4 damsels and 2 hermit crabs in the tank. From what I've read I don't think the star will be botherd by anyone...Right? And does the star...

We're starting a saltwater tank and have 4 bright blue damsels & 1 purplish damsel w/ a yellow tail. 2-3 of the blue ones are chasing & picking at a smaller blue one. 2 or 3 times tonight we have found that one being picked on at the top of the water in the corners of the tank (mostly hiding...
