I like the relationship between the little nems. and the crab and was wondering if anyone on this site has had one? Do I need a good light source for the little nems or would they get the majority of their food from poking around with the crab. I'm moving out and want to keep a 5-10 gal...

OK, some more ID help please. I found these unknown worms and thought they were Bristle Worms. But the consensus from the other thread is they are not not, but probably bad none the less. Possibly Euchnids Sp.?? So any help and removal idea's would be greatly appreciated. Thank-you Joe

OK, I am really ticked off with my LFS and how they sold me the wrong lighting 8 months ago with my anemone. I guess I will ebay my current light and buy a MH. But, after reading some old posts on lighting and internet articles, I am still clueless. People get one K rating with T-5 lights or...

doing water changes on a tank of 100 gallons is pretty easy, my 5 gallon is super simple..... So, i got to thinking, how does one keep up a really big tank (say over 1000 gallons). seems you would have to find a way to do it w/o water changes. unless you lives near a site where you had a...

I received the shipment from Scott (skey44) yesterday, March 5, and could not be happier with what I got. I wanted to share a couple of pictures so you all could see them as well. This is the new bi-color Ricordia. As you can see it is already open and doing great in the tank. I am...

I have two medium size scarlett skunk shrimp in my 90, at least these are the two that bring me to another post. I find that they are molting every 2-3 weeks. I know they molt, but every two to three weeks seems a little often to me. any ideas? my other shrimp (3 peppermint and one camel)...

Sorry if I posted this in the wrong section, wasnt sure where to post beginner questions. Anyway ive been into freshwater fish for at least 10years. I have kept high quality koi in very large ponts for the last 6 years. Ive always wanted a salt tank but never new much about them. A family member...

Finally caught this stinker !...Hard to tell from this shot but I estimated him to be three feet long. He was stretched along the diameter of the garbage can you see in the image and was just about head-to-toe ;)
