that is not a snail. its an aiptasia for sure. but it can also be some type of coral that came with your live rock.

Hi all, since summer break is comming soon, I am getting concerned about my fish when I am gone on vacation. What do you guys usually do? Only one of my fish accepts flake food. The other one is a diamond goby, and he only eats frozen foods. Also, I have a feather duster, and a suncoral tthat...

can you identify what kind of snali it is? how many do you have? also, dont depend entirely on the snails. they are just there to help. Its up to you to scrub the tank down real good. also, its just a phase that all marine tanks go through. so dont stress too much. you are doing nothing wrong...

whats acurel? a water conditioner?

wait, sorry I dont really understand why you got this algea... b cuz ur lights went out? but anyways, I think that it is a type of hair algea like you said. I havent seen any brown one b 4, but I used to have a hair algea problem and there would be green clumpsd of it on my sand, and it was a...

yeah... your rite, it would be more like a low maintenance system...

Dont worry, im using a bufferer. I just wanted to mention that i use ro water. Oh wait... whoops!! lol i just realized that that was how I was adding electrolytes and minerals into the aquarium... hehe

what other coldwater fish are there? sorry, I do not have much experience in the pond and coldwater fishkeeping.

and about the whole electrolytes thingy, I was wondering..... Doesnt reverse osmosis filters get rid of these things? i mean, electrolytes, I don't know, but i definetly know that ro units get rid of minerals, and I use ro units for my tropical foltered tank and all of the fish seems fine. Is it...

Dont worry the pond or Tub size is about 70 gallons. I special ordered it. The reason why I used goldfish is because this is going to be outside, and the platies and other tropical fish can not survive out there. The reason why I bought the tiniest goldfish was because I was afraid of the...

Hi everyone, i recently saw one of those totally self sufficient ecosystem with those tiny shrimps in them. This really gave me an idea. I was wondering if i should try and make one using plants, and goldfish. i did some research, and I think that it is possible if I have a large container with...

Hi all, I have a question. i jave cycled my pond and since the water seemed fine i added one goldfish. It seemed healthy, and i floated the bag and acclimated it properly. I then moved him ( or her) into the pond and he was swimming for a while. I then looked again into the pond finding the fish...

shrimps do not need territories in your tank. In the wild they dont make territories either, so it wouldnt have really mattered which order you put those two in. but, I would keep an eye on the gourami if you put it in. they might attack the shrimps if hungry.

hey I just called them and they told me that they are just gonna cut down on the stocks for the animals that you listed. They also said that some stores might completely shut down the whole stocks. just a little heads up.

have anyone had luck with keeping frogs in a small pond without them running away?

yeah i think that you had a pregnant fish that died because of stress related causes. Also, I reccomend lowering the ph of that tank. 8.0 is too high for rasboras, corycats and barbs. If you are using tap water with a water conbditioner, then that may be why you have a high ph. its probably your...

Hey you guys so far I have a saltwater reef, a freshwater tank, and now I am finally ready to move onto a pond... well more likley a "fish tub" I am planning on using a 40 gallon "tub" that they sell at those home improvement stores. Now it has been a while since i set up my last tank, and I...

do you guys know any information on these guys? Fromia milleporella is the scientific name. I have just gotten one from my mom when I never asked for it. I did some research and I noticed that there were many different views on the care for this species. I states that these are usually hardy and...
