female maroon clown

I was/am a little worried about one of my Anemones!?!? I noticed early today that it was trying to squeeze its way through some holes in the LR, to the top. I watched its progress throughout the day (while I was able), and figured that if it wanted to goto the top of some LR it would know...

Are cinnamon clowns compatible with featherdusters?

Ok - so here is my other tank! For reference - here is the link to my 14g... http://www.thereeftank.com/forums/showthread.php?t=112039 I don't think I need to repeat EVERYTHING from my other thread - but I actually got this tank on 1/11. It was a total whim - I must admit. I walked into my...

My female maroon clown has a bloated stomach and is constantly floating up towards the water surface. She's trying to swim back down and is wearing herself out. Can someone diagnose this, and how do I treat it? HELP!!! I can't get a good picture of it. My water params are: pH: 7.8 - 8.0...

Well the 75 is coming down shortly. I just ordered the tank and I will be documenting the progress in this thread. Was going to go with an all-glass tank. However it was tough to pass down an acrylic tank. Plus Bob might of beat me down if I didn't have him build it:rotflmao: . Tank is...

My wife got me a Green Carpet Amenone for Valentines day (isn't she wonderful :D ) and I was wondering what type of clown fish would be best suited for it? The problem is...as you can see by the picture below, I already have a not-so-small amenone with a tomato clown that is about 4" long. Is...

This Saturday I am hosting a meeting at my house to sell as much of my livestock and rock that I can. I need to get out of the hobby for a while because I just don't have time to keep it up after my divorce. Kids and laundry seem to take precedence over having my arm in the tank. I just set...

My maroon clowns will stick their caudal fin into the sand and furiously beat back and forth moving the sand around. They also pick up pieces of shell and rock with their mouth and move them around. Is this normal? Does anybody else's clowns do this?

one of my button polyp colonies has moved...that is to say...traded spaces with a leather. See the before picture. This is a detail of the original pic, so the quality is odd. The polyps are to the left of the leather, on the sand bed. They really are there, you just have to use your...

Well, I don't know whether to wink, or cry or shout. I've tried scolding Mr. Spot (the wrasse) and Ms. Stripe (the clown of the outfit), but to no avail. In the past 2 weeks those two have really made sand piles of my DSB :p

okay so I have a clarkii clown with an anenomoe and today i was naughty and brought home another clown(same type). FOrtunatley they get along, however the small one who was already there changed his color that matches the new clown. he was dark, but now he is a more lighter paler color. why is...

My female maroon clown like to protect her tank by ramming my hand at full speed. She doesn't bite (yet) she just rams. Well yesterday, she missed my hand came flying out of the tank and landed on the carpet about 4 feet down. I picked her up, put her back in the tank, and she was back at...

Hi guys I just signed up and have to say this is one of the best reef sites on the net. I have just started a reef and fish tank last Saturday!!! Please read all this thread before posting!!! Before I tell you what I have here is my problem my nitrates are a little high about 30ppm and my...

I just brought home one of these guys! Been looking all over for one for which I didn't have to spend a small fortune! "Reef safe", although like most wrasses of this type, he's a pod eater; they stay pretty small and are just cool looking. I've been wanting one of these fish ever since I saw...

...and I know I'm not the only one, LOL! We have a C. Argi named "Angel" (not too inventive) a pair of juvenile tang twins from the Marshall Islands named Frick and Frack, a big female Maroon clown that was originally named "Spike" but somehow, the name degenerated to "Moron." I gave away the...

Brooke and I are thinking about getting an anemone for our 135 reef, we know some aobut the care of them, we know they need good light and direct feeding. What is generally the easiest and best choice, or is it best to just stay away from them? Thanks Jon

A little story to relate-------------------- About a year ago I bought this wonder product called a Power Sweep 228 Power head and a couple of months later I read alot of articles and postings on threads dealing with this power head and found out it is not that great. It was suppose to be great...

Alrighty as requested this weeks topic is Aquarium and reef tank myths. What kind of inhabitants are said to be unsafe but folks have had sucess with? What are some of the myths? Does Spanky really have gills? Lets hear it folks what are your experences. Mike

I am sure alot of you reefers have put in a fish/coral/invert from time to time that you removed for one reason or another or maybe you have a fish/coral/invert now that you would like to remove. If you want to share!:) I presently have a large female maroon clownfish that I would...
