Is there any white, cottony looking stuff coming from the split? If so, it could be a cut. And if it is I'm not sure what to do but that happened to mine (and i didnt know what to do) and it died. One thing about starfish is you have to acclimate them veeeeery slowly. Also, what kind of star...

I've read in a few different fish species that their diet includes Spirulina. I don't know what this is. I tried to look it up online and all these vitamin and diet sites came up and it seemed like it was a product for metabolism. Is is something fish eat too? Can someone please provide me with...

ahhh this is great!! Especially because it says the aptasia WONT retreat back inside the rock when you put this on him. He does that if i get anywhere near him. Wait till he has a taste of this JOE'S JUICE.. :devil: MWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Thanks so much for the link and the tip!! :thumbs:

What is Joe's Juice, and where can I find it?? :)

Well I suppose I'll try to get a peppermint shrimp then. I wanted to get some type of shrimp anyway. I have a yellow watchman goby and I wanted to see them interact with each other. this is just another good reason to get one i guess! So the shrimp EATS these things?

So a peppermint shrimp can get rid of it?? I have one and have read different things about it...I didn't know if I shuld be concerned or not. I too also have a fish only tank with LR. :crazy: I noticed the thing has gotten bigger and moved to another place on the rock...Should I be trying...

maybe they eat the same things fry do? I'll see if I can look anything up or find anyone whose had newt babies before....

Woah, was that guy in your tank? he looks big!! i dont know it may have just been a tube worm??? don't those come out of feather dusters? i read that feather dusters have worms inside and come and go periodically... i really couldnt tell if he had eyes or not. i probably should have examined...

I just found a bit squirmy brown worm in my tank. Is it is a bristle worm? I hope nobody yells at me for assuming it was bad and removing it. Do these worms just randomly appear at any time from your Live Rock? And also, is there a way to prevent them?

that gets my vote for cutest love story on the fish forums!!! :rolleyes: and that is awesome about the live rock sale. A grand! Thats nothing to sneeze at! B)

n/m. I buried him in the backyard. :-( i almost threw up the smell was overwhelming.... :sick: I haven't had anything die before. Whats the next step? I just changed the water this weekend but should i do it again because something died? Oh well nobody will read this in time.....I will look on...

My blue linkia starfish moved to the corner of the tank late last nght and was still there this morning.....He had like a couple brown, tenticle looking type things coming out of the middle of him and hanging down. I just returned home and now theres a lot of that hanging down and he still...

why are you asking them all?? I already told you the choices....a newt.

okay, I have an Aiptasia. It grew out of my live rock and has been there a long time now. So is this good or bad? and also, if the zillions of white dots that i have on my tank IS those things, is that something really bad that I should get rid of? Or is it just a prefrence thing? I am getting...

ROFL :rofl:

:rofl: That is so cool!! I'd love to see a picture of that! I'm thinking about getting a pistol shrimp to see it interact with my watchman goby. I didn't know about cleaner shrimp and tangs though :)

:blink: OOPS!! is that what that is??? I have those too like ALLLLL over the tank and filter. I knew it was some kind of growth but I wasnt sure if it was good or bad so I scraped it all off. What is supposed to happen with them? The feather dusters don't continue to grow ON the tank......do they??

Thats really good if your goby eats flake food! i think most gobies are rather picky. Mine eats frozen cubed food, table shrimp, and occausionally a crumbled up tubifex worm if the can push down the pieces. I have only had him for a month and he eats alright but I want to give him a better...

Hi Christina! A blue spotted watchman, huh? Thats so cool!! I've heard of them but never seen one upclose before. I'd love to see a picture of him if you can get one! :fun: I myself have a yellow watchman goby. That does sound odd about his hangout spot. I haven't ever seen one do that...

i have a little guy like that in my tank too from the live rock. same description as you gave. when I turn the lights on in the aquarium I see him but then he goes inside a hole in the rock. hmmmm

Hmmm the blue-green chromis and the green chromis have to be the same because they had the same scientific name

Well at first I wanted a flame angelfish. But now I am not so sure he's a good choice. Now I am thinking about getting a couple of Green Chromis fish, and perhaps a Lettuce Nudibranch but I am still researching and deciding if he is right or not.

Oh they are? I had no idea. No wonder they keep trying to steal the gobies food! I don't have any other snails or crabs so i'm sure they will be ok

ahh, okay then! so it won't hurt them? I hope that color algae grows on my live rock too! its pretty. I was just worried about it being on the snails. thanks! :)

a few of my bumble snails a purplishy chalky substance on their backs.....Any idea what it could be? I can try to get a picture if nessisary.......

ahh i see. well that makes sense! i hope he'll trust me soon. Thanks, lionfish :)

OKay so like my goby is TERRIFIED of me. But he did eat today. I dropped a sinking pellet near his HIDING SPOT and he dove out to get it but saw me so spit it out and retreated. but then i left the room for a moment and when i came back, the food had been eaten! So thats good that he ate, right...

I just got a yellow watchman goby. he is hiding.....but he'll adjust ina few days i guess. he's very cute! ^_^

hahaha! yes that is what I was just about to do actually! :D

I am so excited! My nitrites spiked like a week and a half ago and I just checked them now and they are 0!! So now I'm going to do water change and test it again tomorrow evening and if everything is still normal then I'm going to get my first fish this week! <>< ^_^

HAHAHAHAHa!!! :rofl: What an interesting thing to ponder. Now I'm hungry for pizza :look: Thats a good question though. I've never seen them for sale or anything. Come to think of it, you don't really see many types of fish that are commonly eaten for sale as aquarium fish..... This...

really? that is awesome! thanks a lot! I am going to look into that :D

having a barracuda would be SO badass, but i'm glad it tells people that its meant zoos and stuff like that. -_-

The one thing from the live rock that i do wish i had is that cute little itty bitty teeny weeny starfish. I think its a starfish coral? its like a bit smaller than a dime. Its so cute!!

how about this guy? barracoooooda

Its like a marine life grab bag! B)

Well thank you! I'm relieved to hear that everything is benecial :)

wow there was 2 of them? that sounds like a headache! Especially to try to get them both out of a big tank.

Thanks for the link, I think this will help :)

Oh, no don't say "crap". Apparently thats a swear word on here. (sarcasm) Thanks, Ramjet :)
