In my 20 gallon I have a firefish 2 percula's and I was looking into getting a yellow (clown)goby. As I've researched I've found that they often live in groups from 3-15 individuals. I know my tanks is small, but would it be okay if I added about 3 yellow gobies? I think it should be okay...
after days of trying to rescue clark the clarkii clown i thought id make him feel better by getting him a friend. it was hard trying to pick a buddy for him since he killed his last friend, a magenta dottyback
i was looking at damsels today and other clarkii clowns. they had these enormous...
Over the last week my SPS have been looking like crap and until now I had attributed it to a recent cleaning and change of my refuguim. Now, after a little reseach, I've found the real culprit. Last week I bought 3 little yellow clown gobies. I thought they where so cute how they loved to hang...
I'll be setting up a 3 gallon Eclipse tank.
Hardware
3 gallon Eclipse Tank System
No additional lighting planned at this point (Eclipse hood comes with a small florecent 6W T5 bulb which I'm hoping will be enough for some growth of algea for nutrient removal)
No Stand (will be sitting on my...
Hi Everyone!
I LOVE puffers and box fish! However since going reef Ive stayed away thinking they weren't reef safe. However Ive seen pix and have read that some of you have them in your reef tanks. I would love to have a puffer and would love to know how all of you feel about puffers in the reef...
I have been inspired by the nano buildoff to do a nano tank! I already have a 55 gallon reef, but I also have a 37 gallon fowlr that I want to tear down and use the sand and rock for a nano.
The plan is to use a blue 5 gallon minibow aquarium that my sister is giving me. I have had small tanks...
The tank in the middle will have clowns and anemones. I need to know what would be the best. I want to get white striped maroons but I don't know if they go in the giant carpets. I want to get 2 of them and 2 sets of different species of clowns at same time. Maroons are my favorite but I am not...
I've never been to this store before so i thought i'd ask you guys about it before i make a drive to the place. What are some of the ups and downs of The Avarium, like what do they carry in livestock and how are there prices.
Thanks!
I bought a yellow and green clown golby on advice from a trusted friend, the reason I didn't buy two of one kind is to avoid spawning inside my SPS. The problem is that the only thing the Yellow Clown Golby seems to eat is SPS pylops, and I mean it goes after them like a bird goes after a worm...
I have a 110 gal FOWLR Tank now and would like to convert this tank to a reef. I've been researching the lighting requirments, and would like to have 2 - MH and VFO lights.
Is it better to buy MH ballst that supports 250, but only run a 175?
The light fixutes that sit on the tank edge...
Today at Petland i was asking about this fish, they said it was eating, looked good, and is reef safe, is this true? If he is not reef safe i'm returning him tomarrow.

1. hippo tang
2. royal gamma
3. lmb

Well, since the downfall of my 75, I picked up a Nano Cube from Jerry. I up graded the powerhead to a rio 600 and placed in some established sand and a few rocks. Hopefully I will be able to start to slowly and add items to my tank. I will post pics tonight. :)
I am wanting to make this tank to...
I sold my 300gal system and have livestock and some misc. hardware to sell. Here's the list:
SOLD: show rock: this is a large piece of live rock (maybe 12" by 15" - hard to measure under water) with an attached green hydnophora, tan/purple monti cap, crocea clam, xenia, and a xanthopleura...
I know I just did one on Whats Your Favorite Part about Keeping a Reef Tank? But just out of curiosity what is your fav. You dont even have to be specific whether its tangs in general or right down to the scientific name of the animal . The question is whos your fav. and lets see some pics...
I've had it with these fish. I have a 20g that's been doing great so far, but I think these fish are really fouling things up. I have 1 lawnmower blenny (sold as algae blenny) and a clown goby.
Well, unfortunately they're the pickiest eaters ever. The LMB just mouths over the liverock and...
I am thinking of getting a new fish today. Either
a. royal gramma
b. yellow watchman goby
c. six line wrasse
d. I have no patience, Ill get all three!
I also just might pick up a cleaner shrimp or a long tentacle anemone if they dont have these. What other colorful fish and stuff are out...
tonight my third attempt at keeping yellow clown gobies has failed. my first one (Tiny, RIP Sept '03) got sucked into the little hole where the cpr bak pak skimmer takes in water. the second wouldnt eat and wasted away (Teeny, RIP Nov '03). the third one, which I got a month ago (Tiny Two RIP...
