Mine was a Banded Hawk. He looks freaking awsome! but he gets to go to a new home.

Heh, I had put him in the sump and he managed to jump the bulkhead and get to my Peppermint shrimp, so that is 4 shrimp total he has devoured......I guess it could have been worse.

I recently purchased a Hawk Fish, cool little fish, very pretty.

I get home yesterday, after being gone only and hour, to find the wiskers of my cleaner shrimp poking out of his mouth......my Fire shirmp was also nowhere to be found.

Hawkfish is currently in time out in the sump.

A good tank sealant, preferably black

A source for some reasonably priced plexiglass


Thanks!

I thought I had gotten rid of that awful red cyanobacteria, but it just keeps coming back. After getting tired of looking at it, and knowing that the stuff grows quickly with the lights on I just cut the lights to the tank....for 2 days. I breifly turned them back on to see that there was no trace o...

I never fed my anenome....I was not aware that he needed to be fed. Although he ate a few of his fellow tank mates so I guess I didnt have to feed him

Hey, I was just wondering if you still had your tank for sale.

Thanks!

Howdy all, Its getting time for me to snail up my tank. I want to buy some turbo grazers. I have a few places in mind to buy them from, but before I made my purchase I thought I would get some opinions first. So, where you buy your snails from? How many snails do you think a 29 Gallon tank needs? Wh...

Chemiclean Red Slime Remover.

Wait 24 hours.

20% water change and try to lightly vacuum the very top layer of sand in areas where you saw the Slime.

I had to repeat this process 3 times, but It did work for me. May not be the best method, but it worked.

Do I just dig out the existing sand and transplant it into the new tank?

As some of you know I currently have a 30 Gallon tank with over 2 years of being established. The tank is pretty scratched up and I am thinking about replacing it and upgrading to a bigger tank. My concerns are for my current livestock. I dont want to loose them, but I am not sure how to approach st...

Thank you for the very helpful tips. I think I have it back under controll...its been 4 days since the last sign of the red slime.

But I will keep ya'll posted.

Found a solution and oddly enough it was one that I already knew about, had used in the past and was to dumb to remember. Chemiclean Red Slime Remover. Worked in a little over 24 hours with no visable side effects to anything else in my tank including corals, crabs, shrimp fish and more. It was very...

That is a good point, I HAVE noticed that it is not as visable/colorful first thing in the morning, but after about 3 hours of lighting then it is very visable and very red. Its just a 30 gallon tank with no sump. I do have a protien skimmer. I am in the process of replacing my biofilter with one th...

Well its red and seems to be getting more and more red, dark blood red. It is long enough to flow in the current. it seems to mainly be spreading in the sand in patches that get larger and larger. Ive never seen it before. Thats the best I can do, if a certain puppy had not of eaten my camera I coul...
