Fish To Be Avoided: (fish that have incredibly low survivability in aquaria or are totally unsuitable for home aquaria) Moorish Idol (a few success stories but miniscule amounts live long, difficult feeder, mystery deaths, and even when accepting prepared foods often slowly starves)...

I spent most of the day working on my 75 gallon reef tank and then started taking pictures. I tried some things that were new for me, and learned a couple of lessons from them in the process. I am planning on adding a whole bunch of pictures to this thread so it will not be very friendly to...

Hi Guys! :) It's been a while - I've been busy with work and MIA - but I do have a question for you... How many of you with Maroon Clownfish keep them alone vs. with other fish? I have a Gold Striped Maroon pair that I had been keeping alone in their own tank. It is a relatively new/young...

So I want to turn this 30-gallon tall into a specialty tank showing off a fish and a mimic of that fish. Do people have ideas? I need to stay tropical, as there is a tropical grasflats refugium plumbed to the tank that I want to keep.

Hey gang, I'm planning to move out of the area (hopefully to LA:wavey:) sometime soon, so I need to start thinking about selling my tank. I have a Finnex 30 Gallon tank. This tank has a back area with a protein skimmer and a fuge. I have 40 pounds of live sand, with about 3 inches of sand in...

I wrote a thread already asking for someone to suggest a goby that wont jump. No one responded hahha. Well I figured I'd try again, but narrow it down a little first. Which one of these gobies would I have the best luck with if: I want it to not jump out of my tank and I want the goby not...

I just left MC and they have a very nice PAIR of Sand Shifting Gobys there. If I didnt already have a Goby in my tank I would be showing you pictures of them not telling anyone about them. Check them out. :drool: Mark

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...

Well, took a family field trip to Midwest Corals this afternoon and we picked up a Six-Line wrasse. My 18 mo old just loves seeing all the fish! He could barely contain himself. Will post some pics when I get a chance. I will also get a pic sometime of my changing Koran Angel. - Matt

Hey good people.. I found You on line and decided to join if that is possible.. I am not one of You who got some huge reef tank, but I own a 24G Aquapod for over a 2 years now with pretty nice success. I started one day in 2006 when I bought this tank from Jeff's store while it was located in...

Hello! So I'm still a newbie - and I get all of my water from my LFS... he has tested my water for me constantly, but I've come to realize that I need to get and learn how to use my own testing kits... I know - I should have done it long ago - but my LFS told me I didn't need to - that I should...

Ok, with the upcoming nano build off, I have started to think about what kind of fish and clean up crews I want to keep. I figured I would ask you, the expert on your suggestions. First of all, my goal with the 10g is to have a sumpless design that has smooth flowing lines. Basically, I do not...

Hello everyone, Since I am new to TRT, thanks to FatTony for introducing me to the site, I thought I would share some pictures and information about my tank setup. I am definitely one who has learned and is still learning from experience and has bought many pieces of equipment more than...

OK, its been a while, but I wanted to make a selection to what I might or can get and not just leave it up to everyone else :read: I located what I can with the free time which was available to me for I need now to move to the next step and make a fish selection for which SPS corals will be...

Ok - so I'm going to try to give the spec's of my tank... but I just want to forewarn that I don't know the right names of everything! I'm about 2.5 months in - the store owner who has helped me build it has made sure I added things pretty slowly... He mixes all the water there and you buy it...

Hi! I'm new and have only had my tank going for 2.5 months. I have a great local store though who has been super helpful. The problem I'm having though is with one of my clowns. My first two fish in tank were 2 tank raised clowns. An orange one and a black one. They got along great for the...
