    Algae blenny that only eats algae

    I started doing the nori clip down by where he likes to sit but he hasn't figured it out.

    Algae blenny that only eats algae

    I used to have a lot of GHA and he was fat like he swallowed a grape. Now I got rid of it and he's getting thin. He won't eat frozen or pellets or anything, really. Nice fish otherwise. About 3", I've had him a year. Free to anyone that knows how to trap a fish that doesn't eat and has a...

    I tried to change my name also (for the same reasons as Derek) but I think the request went into the ether

    CaptainB's 110g (Marcus)

    General update: I did the reef flux dosing and knocked out 95% of the green in the frag and display tank. The frag particularly is looking really good. It's not a fast process but it keeps looking better every day even after the 3 weeks when you do the big water change. Still haven't added...

    Does anyone keep snakes?

    There are rescue places and they have full size stuff at the reptile shop even though breeders always do babies, but I never want to go that route. I got her all set up with the nice T5 UVB light, driftwood and seriyu rocks, basking lamps I have to order from irresponsible amazon sellers who...

    Does anyone keep snakes?

    Don't do it. You'll wind up taking care of it and reptiles live a long time. My 7yo daughter wanted a bearded dragon. We made her wait 6 months and checked out a bunch of shops and the reptile show to make sure she was really committed. Even after all that she lost interest pretty much...

    Yeah so an update here I lost a ton of stuff in the power outage and aftermath last year but been stable for a long time now and I've begun to slowly add back. I still have my fish, the big acantho and a few other things, but pretty coral bare. I didn't want to put stuff in for a long time...

    Anthias recommendation?

    I think borbs are actually the hardiest but $$$

    Power ... again

    Thanks man. It'll get right. Everything that died was fraggable except the 6 line wrasse and starry blenny working fish in the frag tank. My trachy, acantho, and elegance made it along with all my display fish. The stuff there's no way to get but from the sea.

    Power ... again

    My power came back finally last night but even with the generator I could only save the main display. My frag tank got toasted. A few things survived in the frag but 90% melted. Makes sense since it was off for 3 days and got to 60F. Even the display I lost most sps but at least all my fish...

    Power ... again

    Still out I used up 2 full propane tanks so far. I've been in this area my whole life and never had an outage this long.

    Yeah all I have is a battery powered airstone and power been off for 18hr at this point. Temp is down to 69. Getting worried

    Been having some tank issues. Since I was bottoming out nitrate I cut my light cycle on the refugium to 12 hr from 24/7 and all my chaeto died off. The nitrate/phosphate didn't spike (10/0.05) but my alk fell to 5.5 the clam died, some sps are in the process of going out, some others are pissed...
