Hi, I recently aquired a brittle star, knowing that they are scavangers and that they are cool, and I have a few questions. http://www.treasure-divers.com/PhotoGal ... ar_JPG.jpg Mine looks like this except it is solid gray. 1. What are those thicker "hairs" on its legs? 2. I know it is a...

Nothing that i am aware of could have decomposed the fish. There were a few peppermint shrimp in there over the summer, but I think there could possibly be one in there, even though i havent seen it in 3 months +. Its a 45 gallon tank, with 50 lbs of Lr, and there seems to be no spikes and...

sorry no pic. its not hairy like a spagetti worm but more of a thin fuzziness.

Hi, I recently added my first two fish into my established tank, a firefish and a clown. They came from a reputible source, they looked healthy and they ate. The firefish came out after probably 3 hours after being released. But I havent seen the clown since I released it, last monday night...

Hi, First of all, some info. Gulf View LR 40 watts of NO lighting The thing is mustard yellow, immobile, "hairy" is a good way to describe it, about half as thick as a pencil, and about 3 inches long. It sticks in the water, swaying with the currents. It grows fairly fast(~inch a month), and...

I have a feeling it was up around 86 for a week or two, and nights do cool off so tha may be a problem. The firefish probably didn't eat due to the stress, and died from a combination of the two. My test kits are fine, except for the constant cynao outbreak, I have been proud of my tests...

Hello all, My 6 month tank was doing perfect in my 45 gallon FOWLR(15 lbs live rock, 2 tomato clowns, 2 firefish, 2 peppermint shrimp) in July, its aniversary. I finally beat the cynao, and the hair algae. Everyone was happy. Everything was perfect. The only problem was the water I was using...

Hello, I have 2 Firefish in my 45 gallon fowlr, along with 2 tomato clowns and some inverts. Recently, one firefish has become very skinny. I mean VERY skinny, like you can see his stomache area as a prominent rectangular bump. I watch him eat all the time, and besides hiding more than the...

OK, i am confused. So you are saying that I should look for quiet areas that have lots of life in them? like shallow areas around the bay?

Hey all, I have the opportunity to go to Marthas Vineyard(Specifically, Katama Bay), on a private plane trip and I have the ablilty to carry back a few hundred lbs of sand, creatures, ect. I just have a few questions. In my FOWLR, I have a 2 inch deep sand bed of Oolite aragonite sand. Could I...

Hey guys, I set teh wet foam up about half way, and now I know its producing dry foam! The foam will appear and rise up until it sticks to the cup cover, and stay there Hope for good things to come

Hey All! I just got my first skimmer, a 18 bladed Prizm for my 45 gallon FOWLR, and I cant figure out how to tune it properly. I dont know how high to set the bubbles in the riser! When I set it up, I can get the bubbles to not even be in the riser and i can set it so the bubbles overflow it...
