    FYI

    Just discovered today that liquid sunshine sales live rodifers real cheap. They got a guy who breeds.
  3. So my tomato clown laid eggs again. I have them in a two and half gallon now with no filter just air bubbles. I have rotifers and phyto plex ready to go. What do I need to know? The guy at the pet store told me that he heard that the clowns when they hatch dont like light and they will swim to the bottom. Is that true? also when will I feed them? and how often? also I know they are suppose to hatch when their eyes turn silver. should I have the eggs in darkness or light. is there anything special I need to know now that daddy clown fish isn't around to move water with his fins onto the eggs? I'm ready to learn.
  4. So my tomato clown laid more eggs. so this time I got about ten of them out of the tank and in another container with no filters. I want to see if I can get some babys. What do I need to know? please fill me in.
  5. I have the most terrible time with grape caulerpa. Once it gets on a rock it takes over. Even my star polyps hate it. Im finally getting it under control. Even my crabs woulnd eat the stuff. I think id rather have hair algae in my tank than that stuff. though some other algaes do well in my tank. ive had sea lettuce and im not sure what the red algae i have is called but t looks like lettuce but bright red, and every once in a while my crabs eat it and keep it in check, and it keeps my crabs from eating my corals.... just I wouldnt recommend any algae that has vines.. STAY AWAY
  6. So I had a rose bubble tip anemone split to a small rbta and so i decided to put it in another tank with a maroon clown. ive had the clown aka (fatty) two years now. My maroon clown had been housing in a bunch of hairy mushrooms. very aggressive when I get near the mushrooms. Never an anemone has he had in his tank. Almost instantly he went into this rose bubble tip. He took it acrossed the tank to where his mushrooms live, and dug a hole in my sand and placed the anemone in the hole. He didnt even get use to the anemone. my clown just went right to the anemone and is housing in it. I have many anemones in many other tanks and I have never seen this behavoir before. Not him going instantly into an anemone or digging a hole and putting an anemone in it. Has any one else witnessed this before?
  7. When my split it took a long time. I saw two feet and one mouth for almost a month and yesterday mine split all the way..
  8. So my rose bubble tip anemone split again. third time. Its about silver dollar size. I'm so proud...
  9. Hey liquid sunshine in eugene has babys right now. A month old. Just out of the cardinals mouth. Tank raised.
  10. ya my female wont leave a rock alone for the life of her. I've wedge, glued, rubberband, etc. she seems to like to redecorate the tank. I've seen her even break my rocks before. We just let her do her thing, cause my husband loves her.. Or she'd be in the toilet by now. She also likes to draw blood, when you clean the tank. But I have tons of tanks and clowns and never seen anything like this before. My family says I live in a fish store. I just think some people have dogs and cats and I have reefs..
  11. So I have two Maroon clowns in a 20 gallon tank and I have been fighting an evil hair algae out break in my tank for a month now. My husband kept accusing me that I wasn't getting all the pulled alge out of the tank and it was ending up in the filter intakes. I was getting all the algae and I didnt get it. So today while watching a movie, I looked over and both my maroon clowns were pulling hair algae off the plenom and swimming it over to the filter intakes. They did this many times. I Got my husband and showed him. Has any one ever witnessed something like this before? And my husband said clown fish were dumb...
  12. I have tons of them in my tank and I have never seen them on any of my corals. They just seem to stay on my glass.
  13. [ATTACH]6449[/ATTACH] So I got this one inch maybe two inches size carpet anemone two weeks ago, I took this pic the day I got it. Its light tan with short tenacles. whats its name? Just so You know he looks alot healthier now too. his mouth is closed he's footed and he's eating. I have him right now in a 20 long with a 90 gallon ehiem canister on it and 4 t5 lighting so hes real happy. at least till he gets bigger.
  14. So I am looking for corals hard and soft just about anything around town here to buy.
  15. I haven't had a problem with ick in two years. I discovered the illussive quarantine tank. and the rule to never add pet store water to my display tank. when I had my out break it took me two days to caught my angel and two clowns. I lost one of my clowns. He was so bad I youthanised him. I did a fresh water dip, which Id normally wouldn't do but I thought my clown was a goner then I put them in a 5 and 1/2 gallon tank with mal. green in it. The clown and angel lived. For twelve weeks nothing went into my display tank. never had a problem since... Also a good Idea is to always make sure your tank stays at a stable tempture. In the summer if you have to, put frozen soda bottle in it to cool it down. and in winter use a heater
  16. Id love one I live in springifield I dont have anything to trade right now, I just fraged all my stuff for a friend who just made his tank a reef, but food for them and time I have. and I have eight tanks
  17. Would you take fifty for it and can I get a pic
  18. wasn't that over kill on a ten gallon tank that fiiter is made for 90 gallons? How did you stop it from blowing stuff all over the place? I'm just asking because I have a 15 gallon tank
  19. so yay or nay? Ive had my tank set up for a year as fish only with some mushrooms. I just got this really neat metal halide light for it, with actnics and moon lights. So im setting it up to full reef. Though I've had most my live rocks for a year now. someone suggested i might want to change out my crush coral on the bottom to raise my ph before I add corals to my tank. And Im going to get a long tenacle anemone. should I change out my crush coral. maybe just some of it? maybe go to sand? any suggestions.
  20. A red chili cactus coral. Does any one have one for sale around this area?
  21. I have had this tank set up for about two years and Just last night I was looking at my amipod/copepod and noticed jelly fish in my tank about the same size as the ampipod/and copepods. I havent put a thing in my tank new for months, and I dont know where they came from but they little buggers seem happy and they arent hurting anything. my two fish and all my crabs and corals are just fine. should I be worried, and how did I get them? Any Ideas? I was under the impression they's get sucked up in my canister filter or my aquaclear on the back however neither has happened....
  22. joe juice where do I get joe jiuce?
  23. I have these baby small anenomes they arent glass anemones they are green with pink tips and they are taking over my tank how do I kill them?
