I may give a couple a try then thanks again.

I have a 60 litre Nano cube Orca 450tl (16 US Gallons)with 2 Red leged hermits, 2 Percula clowns, a Red Scooter , a Flame Hawkfish and a cleaner shrimp they seem to be doing well, I do have about 8 Kilogrammes of live rock and the Nano cube does have a skimmer which may help. I would think if...

Strange little creatures then and expensive on food if they eat snails a lot. Is there much difference between the red legs and blues apart from growth rates. I've got two red legs in my Nano reef tank (no snails) but as I just paid £20 for a dozen turbos wasn't sure if it was a good idea in my...

I recommend a good test kit one with at least ammonia/ammonium, Nitrate, Nitrite and Water PH the more experianced guys/gals will advise better as I am just starting out also. Its intereasting to know whats going on in your tank and helpful to know when cycling is finished. From what I can...
