    Woke up this morning, and noticed my wife-to-be's puffer's mouth is falling apart. I'm really not sure how to describe it, other then it TRULY looks like the puffer's developed a Cleft-pallette. Half of his upper lip is kind of there, but between where a nose would be, and his mouth, there's...

    Yesterday I removed my sand bed from my tank. What a pain but it was worth it. I like the bare bottom look and my original rock work lay out created a large dead area in back. I am hoping that my rearangment will optimize the flow in my tank and help reduce my little cyano problem. I...

    And what exactly to you feed it. Do you take something like a silverside or piece of shrimp and 'hand' it to him? I'm still learning how to make a 'mush' that doesn't just get sprayed all over the place and fall to the sand bed to just get pushed around. I will be getting this star tonight. If...
