I'm looking for a smaller setup. I might be moving a lot in the next few years and just can't move my 55 gal any more. I would like: any small self contained setup or similar. I prefer the 20-30 gallon size, with glass. I have: 55 gallon tank, drilled with a 10 gal sump and rio (12hf) pump. Skimmer, floss bag, misc power head pumps, canopy and metal halide (150 watt - Hamilton) light. If you have a tank that I am looking for I can buy without a trade. I have cash. I can be reached at EricandSherridan@gmail.com or 801-915-7734. I would like to have a tank in the next few days. Here is a pic of my tank.

hello guys, I'm so sorry to reply late. I did a water change, got a new kit and tested the same items. All of my levels are just fine. I have tested the tank with a volt meter for a current but found nothing. I have not tested for Alkalinity, magnesium, or calcium. This is something to consider? My tank has been setup for about 5 years, but just recently we moved into the state. I haven't added any new rocks in the last 6 months. Could a mantis shrimp "grow up" and start problems? Would he hurt my fire shrimp? Thanks again guys. Eric

You guys are great. I'll get a new test kit tomorrow morning and test before the water change. Thanks so much guys!

By the way, I haven't seen any bodies that seemed stressed ( white dots, etc.) but just this morning my diamond gobie, had quite a kink in his back. Eric

I have considered predation because I noticed the psudochromis being a stinker, but also possibly a crab. I've never seen a crab though. Possibly a hitchhiker? Sometimes I never see a fish again. I'm wondering if there is a sickness that possibly my maroon clown and psudochromis could be immune? Here are my levels: Salinity: 1.022 PH: 8.2 Nitrates: 30 ppm Nitrites: undetectable Ammonia: undetectable The test kit is Aquarium systems (manufactures of Instant Ocean). It did Expire Dec of 04. Thanks for the welcome. We have met nice people who told us about this site in fish stores. We look forward to contributing and participating. Thanks again. Eric and Sherridan

Livestock disappearing / dying (scratch) Hello fellow aquarium enthusiasts. I think I may have a problem. For the last few months I’ve had a slow decrease in fish population. At first thought I blamed a bad attitude fish who has been in quarantine for a few weeks now but after adding a few more fish, all of them have passed. All levels seem to be ok. If it is a sickness, it seems to not affect my maroon clown, orchid dottyback (neon phuedochromis), and inverts but I could be wrong. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance, Eric

By the way.. I'm happy to add cash to the trade. I'd love some of the following dish: diamond gobie yellow tang six line wrasse flame angel coral beauty Please help me find this guy a new home before he gets another one of my fish. Eric and Sherridan

We have a Neon Pseudochromis that is causing problems in our tank. We would like to trade it for something more peaceful. We are open to all offers. He was moved into our sump July 9th 2007. Thank you for your consideration and finding him / her a new home. Also interested in trading corals or lighting. Eric and Sherridan Corvallis
